t8,

After the flood in Noah’s time, God gave humanity permission to eat meat (Genesis 9:2-3).

There were no pants so man had to eat something temporarily.

If Jesus opposed the slaughter and consumption of animals, the New Testament tells nothing of it.

It is all through it but you can’t see it.

Paul even warns against such a doctrine of d…

Okay, you made the point for me then. Eating meat doesn’t defile a person.

One person can eat meat but a weaker brother or sister may not. Thus don’t eat meat in front of them. Do it when they are not there so they won’t be offended or feel defiled.

Once again t8, you are confusing what Jesus said with what Paul said.

Jesus was refer…[Read more]

Is fish meat or veg? It’s meat. Just not a land based animal’s flesh. Rather a water based one as you point out.

Jesus ate fish, so being the creator of the world He would know. I also eat fish.

And I don’t know where you got your bible translation from Ed.

“When the Passover lamb they WERE TO SACRIFICE”

https://biblehub.com/text/mark/14-12.htm

And the fact He was the sacrificial lamb himself and the temple was destroyed.

Ed, I cannot discuss anything with you when you are unwilling or unable to comprehend. Also, preparing to eat something and ACTUALLY eating it are two different things.

I will take it then that there is NO PROOF that Jesus ate meat – none whatsoever.

And t8.. the fact it doesn’t say he did is actually proof enough for me that he did not. No sin…[Read more]

You are getting like Gene and Jodi,

they only jibber jabber their views into the conversation
all the while working hard to avoid answering the tough questions

…in long drawn out propaganda speeches. Please do not be like them!

Showing different bible translations is NOT propaganda!

I so no answer to my question. Please re-post the part that “explicitly shows” an answer to my question

Notice how I used your words?

My answer was that your bible version shows a different context than other versions. Yours says “when they killed the Passover” where other versions says “when it was customary to kill the passover” etc. I gave…[Read more]

Hi Miia,

It’s good when we agree!

Of course that verse is not saying unclean animals are clean to eat!

That’s good Ed 😀

Nice dodge, now will you answer my question like I asked?

“when they killed the passover”
What do you suppose that means if Lamb was not on the menu?

Please answer?

Ed is not a dodge. Did you not read my reply to you? Please go back and read it again.

In a vision to the apostle Peter, Jesus declared all foods to be clean, including animals (Acts 10:10-15)

t8, no he didn’t. It was a parable- the dream /food representing people /gentiles.

Paul even warns against such a doctrine of demons, requiring others to abstain from God-given food (1 Timothy 4:3).

Paul was.. slightly rebellious. Paul is…[Read more]

Not all flesh is the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another, and fish another. There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies.

All these have flesh. We know he ate fish which is flesh. Possibly lamb too.

Yep t8, but fish is slightly different. It lives in the water for one, and doesn’t breathe air like we do.

As…[Read more]

Hi Miia, oh no ???

Context Context Context!

“And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover,
his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare
that thou mayest eat the passover?” (Mark 14:12)

The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber,
where –  I SHALL EAT – the passover with my disciples?” (Mark 14:14…

Hi Miia,

Easy…

“his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover? 13 And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him. 14 And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the hou…

The only abundant source of meat in a desert near the sea would be fish. And why not include that?

Thanks t8.

Because fish is not necessarily classed as meat. There are vegans /vegetarians called pescatarians who will eat fish.

Yep watching it now.

Compassion doesn’t appear to be a virtue in that culture. It would be a frightening world if they were able to realise their ambitions of global dominance. And Covid-19 could have taught them about the power of viruses which could lead to them releasing another virus that they already have a vaccine for, just to weaken the other nations.

In my v…

I forgot to mention in my last post here that yes you have a point and point taken.

So the real debate between us is whether Donald Trump was chosen by God. I say yes, you obviously say no.

Do you believe in the history of the world that there was any leader of a nation that was chosen by God?

Thank you t8.

No, I don’t believe that any person…[Read more]
