well I’ll leave this group for now until you are able to talk or we could debate on Former Seventh Day Adventist’s-Renewing our minds.
problem is this group is not active like seventh day Adventist’s renewing our minds and things, where the debates are better, I am trying to cut down on groups and have more time for verses, contact me on code group, but for now I must leave
yes it is tough. and it requires activeness if you want to keep up with the debate.
if you join seventh day Adventist’s renewing our minds beware, it’s a really tough group with full on belief questioning and you have to do lots of reading and answering on it
yeah, mean does actually have its benefits if you have the right amount of it
if you have any more questions you can ask us or you can join former Seventh day Adventist’s-renewing our minds.
I think I will have to get back to you more on this when I have more time though...I prob won't be on any of the groups 4 a longish time sadly.. But I really enjoyed talking w/ you guys, its helped me, and hope it helped you! Thx!! Bye!!
So, "meat" also meant food, and not just the other meat, Lol!
I honestly think its healthier to eat meat. Its very good for bones, blood, muscles, sinew...etc. And you guys r visa versa. Lol!! We actually do eat a nice lot of veggie's. My sis and I love Salad. XD
Yes meat can contain parasites. But first of all they are usually not there. And secondly if you cook the meat properly if by any chance there is parasites they will almost always die. But its a slim percentage, at least in U.S.A. You have a Much higher risk of getting parasites by walking around bare foot outside, and being w/ animals then by eating meat.
I'm sorry!! I just posted those questions in diff ways a couple times b4. XD XD
we are commanded to not eat meat, or to not eat " unclean " meat, b/c of the verses stated down there.
Thanks for answering that BM!! Veggie's are good to keep ppl lean, and it is good for you. But no, meat is not necessarily bad. Like pig fat increases your chance of heart attack. And other stuff I think. But eaten in moderation is fine. So not morally wrong to eat meat. What I mean is I don't believe
1 meat can have worms and things in it which can grow in your body because it’s not like animals wash their hands, now I don’t mean earthworms and things but microscopic worms that sometimes survive being cooked 2when Noah was going into the ark 7 animals of each clean species came and 2 of each unclean species, and God to,d nosh that the ones in pairs of two were not to be eaten 1#i don’t really get, give us meat and say it is good for meat(why would god give us a bone and say it is good for a bone) 2#um... I do believe I should follow all the laws and I don’t know if I have gentile blood in me, but i think I have Jewish, don’t know why that is important
well I am not trying to avoid your questions
I’ll try to answer your other questions later.
the question down there of “ how do you know meat is physically bad for you?” I am going to answer. meat isn’t really bad for you. it won’t kill you. but there are other things that are BETTER for you. that’s why we are vegetarians.
2# If you believe that we must follow that law what about those other laws? Circumscision and the purifying laws. Aren't you yourselves Gentiles.? Do you have Jewish blood? See what I mean?
1# Why would God give us meat and tell us it is good for meat?
They did not understand the pictures. And neither really did the disciples till Christ told them.
Its not like: Oh, Jesus died for us!!! Now we can eat unclean meat!!! Now all could come to the Father through the Son. The Pharisees Jesus called " White washed tomb, which inside is filled w/ dead men's bones. " He explained that, they follow the outward things!!! But they do not see the spiritual things.
Jews were Gods chosen people. And some Gentiles did come to God. But they were all cut off. What I mean is, they did not have the privilege which came w/ Gods people.
And BM, I think your putting it in the wrong light.
Those pictures were to help us. The Gentiles like I said b4 were cut off. The Messiah came the one who would pay for our sins. God said that now all could come to him. Both Jews and Gentiles, see what I mean? The pictures were not needed anymore.
I agree w/ Skyler its your choice, except on what you said about unclean meat.
And down there are bible verses to prove what I wrote.
And I already said that unclean and clean meat and the other things were metaphors and helps.
2# Where in the bible did God command us not to eat meat b/c it is unhealthy for us? And he does so for our health reasons?
1# How do you know meat is physically bad for you?
No offense, but it seems like you keep avoiding the questions I've asked you several times BM.
I'm not judging you guys either. Look, there is nothing wrong w/ being a vegetarian!!! XD
here’s what I said before. unclean meat is PHYSICALLY bad for you. God didn’t make that law as a restriction, He made it to keep us healthy. Fo you really think that unclean meat is now good for you because Jesus died on the cross? and I already told you that because Loma linda has so many vegetarians it’s life expectancy is muck longer than other cities. so not having meat is a better lifestyle. it’s been proven!
so yeah I really don’t have a problem with mean unless it is unclean but I just would rather not eat it.
yes yes, I am not condemning poeple who eat meat, I mean Jesus himself was eating meat sometimes. but I would rather not eat meat because I don’t like the though of an animal being killed, especially because just lately my dog died and that made me really sad for animals that die
Its been nice to talk though! And when I come back, I will definitely want to continue this, if that fine with you guys! Thx, for making it BTW!
Btw...this is soo sad!!! XV I will be gone from Monday...4 A VERY longish time...I'll come back eventually though...but still. I will talk tomorrow. B/c I think its a good thing to talk about on Lords days. XD
Why? I mean the bible clearly has LOTS to say on this.
Meat is unhealthy. According to God it is unclean ( certain kinds at least ) I believe that's what u are saying?
why would God give us such unhealthy things? What glory does that bring him?!?! We are his chosen people...the apple of HIS eye?!
Why would God provide meat for us to eat, if it is so very unhealthy for us? God says: he that toucheth you, toucheth the apple of his eye. Zechariah 2:8
How is meat unhealthy for you? What is it in the meat that is unhealthy for you?
We are told to take care of our bodies, and that it is a sin to neglect it. So...if meat is very unhealthy for your body, but Jesus ate it...then, it doesn't make sense!+!
So, if he wanted to he could have most certainly.
He fed the five thousand, and then the two thousand!!! If he wanted to, he could have eaten vegetables, just like that. He made them and they are his.
He was God and man, in one person. He told Peter to catch a fish and open its mouth, and he would find money in it to pay the taxes.
And about Jesus probably eating meat if he could afford it...
He hath given meat unto them that fear him; he will ever be mindful of his covenant. Psalm 111:5
Btw, where are you getting your info on: " pig meat is very unhealthy "? If eating meat is so bad, then why does most of the world eat it? If it shortens your life? Threatens your health. Why don't they know? We humans have been around 4 about 6,000 years, and have created technologic marvels...so why would only some people know meat is so very unhealthy...?
There are so many other bible verses, but I don't have time r/n. Maybe I can type them out another time.
...what about all the purifying laws? If you even touched an "unclean " animal.
Holy and unholy. But Jesus has come. Those were pictures to help us. The Circumcision of the soul.
And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an EVERLASTING COVENANT.
And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you. And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed.
Look, if you believe that God still commands us to eat only " clean " meat but not " unclean " Then shouldn't you keep the other laws? Shouldn't baby boys be circumcised on the 8th day?! And ALL the other laws??
The meat is no longer unclean. God said: " What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common " God cleansed. It is a picture. A metaphor! Holy, unholy, but now there is no need of that. Christians. Both Jews and Gentiles, being able to come together, through Christ.
first of all. there’s nothing mentally wrong with eating unclean meat, but there is something physically wrong. eating pig is very unhealthy. and eating meat won’t kill you, it’s just a healthier lifestyle. the city of Loma Linda has a higher life expectancy because it has a lot of vegetarians. look it up! Jesus probably would have been a vegetarian except it would be very expensive then. fish were cheaper than grapes.
Oof...I sure wrote A LOT!!!! But I finally did it!!! Hope it's helpful!!!
Lol, no offense, but...an argument is not an argument, without evidence. I mean Idk where God commanded us to not eat meat, on account of it being unhealthy...no offense!!!
God would not have been God, if he had not risen again.
About the sabbath...God made us all, and rested the seventh day.
Jesus died for us all and rose up again, on the first day.
We a new creation.
Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened.
For even Christ our PASSOVER is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
The sabbath day. God's day, another picture. He made us, a day to enjoy him and learn about him.
Let my prayer be set before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice. Psalm 141:2 KJV
Sacrificing, the priest would sacrifice, symbolizing prayer, a prayer for God's mercy on their sins. A metaphor, a picture...
Like Circumcision. Another picture. Clean and Unclean. God's people, a sign.
But how if you are referring to the OT laws, I disagree. That were a metaphor of the things to come.
Skyler, if you are referring to the moral law ( the 10 commandments ) I believe that too.
If you are truly sanctified, Christ is in you, and you are not your own, you cannot do what u please.
But now, there is no, clean and unclean.
what the clean and unclean meat had been separated for.
It was a metaphor, not, I believe for health reasons but to show them, they were clean, but the other people unclean. etc...
Do u really think that God, who brought down the sheet, filled w/ the unclean animals and three times said: Rise Peter; kill and eat. Did not actually mean that? Yes, I believe that God was also showing that they were no longer separate from the Gentiles. ALL could be saved b/c of Jesus. This also was...
Why did the Israelites KILL animals, to sacrifice to God? Is God cruel, then b/c the animals can feel?
If it was unhealthy for us, why would God tell us, that EVERY moving thing and green herb was good for us to eat! Genesis 9:3?! Why would JESUS have fed the 5 thousand with meat ( fish ) and bread? That seems so cruel, right?
And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. Exodus 12:8
Eating meat is actually good for you, b/c it has lots of good protein and stuff Idk. But good for your muscles and strengthening.
Jesus fed the 5 thousand w/ fish and bread. If eating meat was something not to be done, don't u think that Jesus would have not done so? And why would God not address such a thing?! Think if the passover! They would kill the lamb, roast it with fire, eat w/ bitter herbs and unleavened bread. Exodus 12. And other places in the bible.
So...was the eating of meat banned? Clearly not, from all that the bible says.
The Israelites, were given no commands to refrain from eating meat.
Remember how Abraham set meat before his guests in Genesis 18:8? And the Israelites, complained that they had no meat, but wanted the leeks and onions of Egypt, God gave them meat, but punished them, by giving them to much quail, they were sick and tired of it. Exodus
16
Daniel was committed to purity. He had purposed not to defile himself w/ the kings meat or wine. The kings meat had been sacrificed first to the kings god's. The overseers of a church not drinking wine, was a Nazarite vow. He was not to be given over to wine.
1. God did not restrict ALL animals for meat, only the "unclean" ones.
No, there is nothing " morally wrong " with eating meat.
I eat meat. But you guys don't, and I respect that, its your choice. But.. you are saying you don't eat meat, b/c the Bible says not too...
“oooooooooooooooh yeah! ooooooooooooooh yeah, woooo! oooooooooooooh yeah!”
" I know you've waited real long, but let me finish my song, my song, I know I can be a bore, but wait a little bit more, bit more...maybe tomorrow when I have your number, I'll call you, or text you, and eat a cucumber, so wait a little more, oh, more, just wait a little bit more...la, oh, oh....bit more "
