    The Seven Laws of Noah

    Internet searches can answer a lot of these questions, but not all. I'm more knowledgeable in this topic than most, so I'll answer. Where they came from in the modern form, is the Rabbis 'reversed engineered' them from 'commandments' implied by the book of Genesis. For example, murder is...

    Christianity and Veganism

    You are making a fallacious argument based the quirks of an old english KJV translation, which has absolutely nothing to do with how we'd translate the Hebrew or Greek today into modern english. The old english word "meat" did not mean "animal flesh". It did indeed have a connotation more akin...

    THE LAWS OF GOD

    Leviticus and Deuteronomy are for Jews, not for non-Jews. These rules are not part of Noahide Law. Acts is not part of my scripture.

    THE LAWS OF GOD

    It says there that the blood is the soul, or life of the animal. The blood was forbidden, not the meat. Here are other scriptures that explain it: (Leviticus 3:17) “‘It is a lasting statute for your generations, in all your dwelling places: You must not eat any fat or any blood at all.’”...

    The Eucharist and Commandment to not drink Blood

    The Eucharist is symbolic of what Jesus did on the cross and by believing in Him you may "drink His blood" and "eat His flesh". Not just on the Passover meal. Grape wine can never be the actual blood of Jesus. It's just symbolic ... what Jesus meant by drinking His blood was to receive the new...

    The Eucharist and Commandment to not drink Blood

    Regarding point #1, I'm open to evaluating this idea. However, all blood is "lifeblood" from a scriptural standpoint. Blood = life. Leviticus 17:13-14 “‘Any Israelite or any foreigner residing among you who hunts any animal or bird that may be eaten must drain out the blood and cover it with...

    The Eucharist and Commandment to not drink Blood

    There are three reasons why your “analysis” remains unconvincing. #1, you’re oversimplifying the commandment not to eat blood. Observant Jews do eat blood. “Lifeblood” is from a living animal, or one that’s still warm. #2, the Protestant idea of “symbol only” only came about with the...

    The Eucharist and Commandment to not drink Blood

    Joh 6:53 Then Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves. Joh 6:63 It is the Spirit that gives life. The flesh does not profit anything! The words which I speak to you are spirit and are...

    The Eucharist and Commandment to not drink Blood

    I think you raise an interesting point and I tend to agree with your idea that it may have been a provocative break with the old religion and a hard teaching to test the will of the disciples.

    The Eucharist and Commandment to not drink Blood

    One of the earliest commandments in the Bible given to all mankind as part of the Covenant with Noah, and one of the only dietary restraints to persist under the New Covenant is to not consume blood. The commandment is also repeated many times throughout the OT. Genesis 9:4-6 “But you must not...

    Very good points Deeje. Perhaps that's why they call them blood bank$$$. :(

    Actually the law on the consumption of blood started with Noah when he was first given permission to consume flesh. This was long before the formation of the nation of Israel and the written Law. Genesis 9:4-6 ...."Every moving animal that is alive may serve as food for you. Just as I gave you...

    Would you really think someone who had a blood transfusion is the same as an idolater or fornicator? In Acts, they were simply trying to figure out what rules they needed to give the gentile converts. Blood transfusions were unknown. Do you know what the "letter" is? Romans 2:29, Romans 7:6, 2...

    I agree that those Jews who heard and read the letters from the brothers in Jerusalem would have understood what it meant to abstain from blood. After all, they understood the only proper use for blood - namely, atonement for sin. (Leviticus 17:11) For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and...

    Science and the Bible

    This is a pointless exercise. The bible is not a science book. It is a work of literature, full of allegory and metaphor. The value of Its messages to humanity does not depend in the least on it describing nature accurately, which of course it does not do.

    Nope. That means the disk of the earth. The bible thinks the earth is flat (sometimes like a table, sometimes like a plate), it's the center of the universe and rigidly fixed in place, the sun moon and stars go round it, the sky (firmament) is solid and the heavenly bodies are affixed to it so...
