What is the matter Hobe... I see you are up rather early did something need to be tended to in your garden or you just couldn’t sleep.. Michael and I are friends we have known each other for years and have met face to face don’t be so jealous or vindictive. If you see me as a brown nose dork in your words then by all means continue to insult me that is not the worst I have been called and certainly not the worst Michael has been called.... Actually the interesting thing using Michael words against( There I am brown nosing again) and reflecting your accusations against me is to turn a MIRROR in your direction.. Are you not brown nosing your conceptions on what a supposed live Jesus said or did... Was he not a false messiah who lead his followers to their untimely deaths and did he not break all the mosaic laws in doing so..I could go on about the failings of this so called Messiah of yours but again people can look up his false promises themselves as they are easily found in the verses in the New Testament.... Kosher laws are an interesting concept. Not all of us follow them as stringently as you think we all do... The thing is that kosher laws have other beneficial reasons for being followed and being put in place then just the surface reasons.... You see and I am pointing this out for our audience because the kosher laws were put in place it kept the Jewish people safe.... How so well think about it... Gd commanded the Hebrew people to be a Holy nation.. Holy in this connotation meant separate and distinct... They were not to follow in the footsteps of the surrounding nations... Dont get me wrong many did and fell away and became members of the surrounding nations but the ones that kept these laws and separated themselves from these nations survived and were able to live amongst all the nations of their dispersement all these years till a remnant have now RETURNED back to our original homeland.You see if you can’t eat and socialize with other groups you are not tempted to join them and you can’t anyways because you cannot partake of the same food as they do.... If GD knows from the beginning to the end than he would know these things.... Now keeping that mirror focused on you once again if as you say the Jesus of the New Testament as created by ROME who wanted to create a one world Rule over the whole empire ... Would you not write in your scriptures( Remember Roman words) that your created Jesus( Logos or word) said that all meat and food could be eaten... Would not the Romans know secretly that to destroy the Jewish people all they had to do was get them to break the kosher laws so they will no longer be HOLY and distinct and they would then be assimilated into the empire peaceably over a short period of time.... Think about it using that reflection of that mirror looking you in your face...You see things are not always as they seem and sometimes a great light( truth and knowledge) must be shone on something so that others can finally have an aha moment when all is revealed... But people can choose to ignore these truths and continue on their paths whatever they are....
lol...I wasn't up early, I was out late.
Anyway, of course I know you guys don't follow kosher laws very stringently. Thats just another can of worms. The thing that is supposed to separate you from godless people is not your diet but your thinking.
what is in your mind binds your actions.
If what is in your mind is the wrong interpretation of the divine commands your actions will be wrong too.
If you believe that the subject of kosher law is about food, you will never fulfill the demands of those laws or see the life promised for compliance by diligently standing guard over the purity of your own mind and differentiating between clean and unclean teaching.
Not to mention you will bear the guilt of perjuring yourself in the name of God.
Believe what you want but for as long as you think that the subject of the law that prohibits eating the flesh of swine is about pork you will be guilty of violating the exact same law that prohibits swallowing the teaching of unclean creatures that do not ruminate whatever you eat or don't eat for dinner.
The teaching that kosher law is about food is the flesh of unclean creatures that do not ruminate.
This is the teaching of
the real Jesus, the flesh of the Son of God, the Body of Christ.
Unless you eat his flesh you cannot have the life promised for compliance with the divine commands in you.
Have a nice day!
