Zone1 Should Christians make an effort to understand and learn from Jewish dietary restrictions?

So when I asked Dekster about a date when the technology to allow the supreme being to lift His dietary restrictions began, you replied with "Christmas Day". I assumed you were saying that was the day that they were rescinded.
So, if by "Christmas Day" you weren't talking about technology starting, why did you reply?

He was informed ... he just didn't believe ... see how he refused the command of God? ... or did you not read this part of the Bible? ...

Your mistake is believing it was a technological breakthrough that fulfilled dietary laws ... when the Bible says it was Christ who them ... Christ was born on Christmas Day ... he came to fulfill the law, not do away with it ... that's your mistake ... dietary laws are still in effect ... God never rescinded them ...
Unbelievers sure do say the cutest things ...
When was Peter informed at any time before his vision that the Levitical dietary laws had been rescinded?
I never said that.
I don't understand what you're saying.
What does the birth of the Messiah have to do with any of this?
What is my mistake?
In the immortal words of Strother Martin, "What we have here is a failure to communicate".

That Biblical dietary laws are rescinded ... Christ came to fulfill the law, not do away with it ...
17 - “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.
18 - For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.
19 - Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 - For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.
-- Matthew Chapter 5
Note that those who teach violations of the law are counted least in Heaven, rather than thrown into Hell ... God is merciful ...
=====
As a matter of lifestyle ... I avoid unclean meats in my diet ... I eat turkey and beef almost exclusively when I do eat meat ... vegetables that bear seed and fruits after their kind are all clean ...
The lesson Peter learned is that it's better to eat unclean meat at your brother's table than to set a stumbling block before him ... meaning it's better to eat the damn pork chop than act like a stuck-up religious turd ... God will cleanse anything if it helps bring a lost sheep back to the flock ...
The flesh is weak ... and I am a sinner ... about every other month I buy a pound of shrimp ... I can be such a gluttonous fool bound for hell sometimes ... scallops, crab, the entire menu at Red Lobster ... I don't deserve to live ...

So, how about quoting the sentence that has been hacked.
BTW, you have a question directed to you in post #125.

Dietary laws are not rescinded ... Matthew 5 ... read the whole chapter ...
You're asking for a date that is yet to come ...

ETA:
9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:
10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,
11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.
15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
Just so we're clear about Peter's vision ...

That is not a sentence that I wrote. I asked you to identify the one where I said that the laws had been rescinded.
Perfectly clear about it. In your post #123, you said that Peter was informed but that he didn't believe it. I asked where in scripture he had been informed. You still haven't said.

#110 ...
re: post #110 - Dekster had written that the dietary restrictions were largely given for health reasons before modern preservation technology. I took that to mean - incorrectly perhaps, since he hasn't responded - that he was at least implying that the dietary laws were no longer applicable. With that in mind, I asked if he had a time when such a transition was supposed to have taken place. No where in that post did I say that I believed that the laws had ended.

Well ... you have your answer now ... dietary laws are applicable until all is fulfilled ... like it is in Heaven ... which is what Peter's vision was about ... if Our Lord lays out pork on His table in Heaven, we're allowed to partake, in Heaven ...
Here on Earth, we are to choose from the Seat of the Merciful ... something non-believes won't understand ...
Remember ... if we do away with dietary laws ... we do away with the laws concerning incest ... maybe not a good idea ...
Actually, I don't. Dekster still hasn't responded.

Is he your source of all knowledge?
The REAL truth is, you shouldn't be eating meat. It is a sin. God doesn't yet strike you dead over it in this life because "of the hardness of your hearts," And He understands this world has chosen blindness.
But He specifically DEAMANDS that Man -- not the Jews only -- don't eat the forbidden foods.
