Zone1 Is Your Body a Temple or a Graveyard?

[Carl in Michigan]

You may quote Paul for your point, I don't know who else, but Paul said he was ready to give up having meat, for the sake of others

You're a believer in ala carte christianity.
How many APOSTLES, taught at the feet of Jesus Christ, need to tell you the same thing before you decide to follow them?

And if you believe Paul was saying NOT killing to "survive" is the morally superior position, then you lack understanding

 

[Carl in Michigan]

Fish was the primary source of protein in the region in that time. Peter and others were fishermen. Jesus helped them catch fish. Jesus was given a fish to eat.

They weren't AFTER CONVERSION
Peter ate:
Bread
Olives
Vegetables

 

[Woodznutz]

Actually what some eat is killing them. Information to pay attention to is being selectively considered or ignored. Home is a site you choose to ignore, though it is with basis of doctors who have saved people's lives with the healthy way of eating whole foods from plants and avoiding processed stuff for food with the additives and avoiding animal products. There are very convincing studies showing this way is much healthier and associated with avoiding health problems that are otherwise common and even ultimately fatal. There is protein but there are also unhealthy things in animal products, while the protein is available from the primary producers of food, which is made from sunshine with presence of carbon dioxide in the immediate vicinity, with adequate water and essential minerals being present.

New testament scriptures support sensitivity and compassion much more, and not ignoring others with insensitive disregard. You may quote Paul for your point, I don't know who else, but Paul said he was ready to give up having meat, for the sake of others. Nothing after that was showing that he did not. Not having any blood is also said for believers, in the new testament of the Bible, and it directly ties to excluding anything with blood said even for any people in Genesis. Compassion for animals is expressed, and one has to just ignore the original design being shown to start with and prophecies in scriptures showing return to that in restoration from God for creation, where repentant redeemed may come, through Christ. It is good to mean it when praying to God 'Your will on earth as it is in Heaven.' There is no killing or suffering in Heaven as prophecies show that will be what is restored for creation, which is now groaning for that, with hope, which God will fulfill.


There is really no assurance that this keeps happening this way.


If he was offered that and it was not added words to honeycomb that was offered, he ate 'it' and not them. He asked for something to eat, nothing specific, and it is not shown what he was eating.

I hope you are not conflating diet and salvation.

Lol eating animals is bad, but pretending to eat a dead mans flesh is fine.

Is there a NT law that proscribes vegan/vegetarianism?

Jesus meant it as a metaphor, but some take it seriously.

 

[Carl in Michigan]

Is there a NT law that proscribes vegan/vegetarianism?

I follow Jesus and the apostles. So I don't need a law. Only their example.

"It is good that the servant be LIKE the Master"

 

[TNHarley]

Jesus ate meat. He participated in passover which required lamb, by law. In luke it mentions him eating fish. God told noah after the flood that everything that moves is food for him.
Romans 14:2–3 says, “One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.

YOU should know better. TN is an unbeliever. I don't expect as much from hi interpretation.

They are talking to the GENTILE Church. The topic is sacrifices to idols

Carlin will ignore it. He reads what he wants to read.

 

[TNHarley]

And apparently I know more about your book than you do. Weird how that works.

The topic was about discretion regarding one's example.

This actually says it all, with a warning. Note that it is a prophecy and warning for our time.

1 Timothy 4:

1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

Acts 10

10 At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion in what was known as the Italian Regiment. 2 He and all his family were devout and God-fearing; he gave generously to those in need and prayed to God regularly. 3 One day at about three in the afternoon he had a vision. He distinctly saw an angel of God, who came to him and said, “Cornelius!”

4 Cornelius stared at him in fear. “What is it, Lord?” he asked.

The angel answered, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have come up as a memorial offering before God. 5 Now send men to Joppa to bring back a man named Simon who is called Peter. 6 He is staying with Simon the tanner, whose house is by the sea.”

7 When the angel who spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier who was one of his attendants. 8 He told them everything that had happened and sent them to Joppa.

Peter’s Vision​

9 About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray. 10 He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance. 11 He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners. 12 It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles and birds. 13 Then a voice told him, “Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.”

14 “Surely not, Lord!” Peter replied. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.”

15 The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.”

16 This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was taken back to heaven.

17 While Peter was wondering about the meaning of the vision, the men sent by Cornelius found out where Simon’s house was and stopped at the gate. 18 They called out, asking if Simon who was known as Peter was staying there.

19&nbsp;While Peter was still thinking about the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Simon, three[<a href="Bible Gateway passage: Acts 10 - New International Version" title="See footnote a">a</a>] men are looking for you. 20&nbsp;So get up and go downstairs. Do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them.”

21&nbsp;Peter went down and said to the men, “I’m the one you’re looking for. Why have you come?”

22&nbsp;The men replied, “We have come from Cornelius the centurion. He is a righteous and God-fearing man, who is respected by all the Jewish people. A holy angel told him to ask you to come to his house so that he could hear what you have to say.” 23&nbsp;Then Peter invited the men into the house to be his guests.

So Peter had his wife serve up a meal of creepy-crawlies for everyone.

Did the bible lie when it spoke of jesus attending passover?
Did the bible lie when it said luke spoke of him eating fish?

Regenstein

Says that nowhere in the New Testament is Jesus depicted as eating Flesh and "if the Last Supper was a Passover meal, there is, no mention of the Pass Over Lamb Dish".

He should have read his Bible more carefully.

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