    Is it okay to eat pork?

    Okay. Did he subsequently teach that being dead to the law, Christians were therefore justified in disobeying it?

    Is it okay to eat pork?

    Correct. And not one sabbatarian I know would claim that it is. Straw man. Jesus declared all food clean. Indeed He did. Since when though was pork ever classified as food? Swine/ bacon/pig/pork/shellfish etc was unclean yes, but not because it was arbitrary law, but because it was never...

    Is it okay to eat pork?

    That was a lot of scripture. I understand what the scriptures mean, and have no issues with it. I'm wondering however if you understand what they are saying, because they bear little or no relation to the post you quoted. Care to explain what those scriptures actually mean to you, and why I...

    You said Christians cannot sin, I presume in the sense that's is impossible for them to do so. Therefore if you've met a Christian, you've met someone who hasn't sinned since being a Christian.

    Seventh-day Adventist

    Christ was a protestant. He protested against the formal worship of the Jewish nation, who rejected the counsel of God against themselves. He told them that they taught for doctrines the commandments of men, and that they were pretenders and hypocrites. Like whited sepulchers they were beautiful...

    Seventh-day Adventist

    If the subject matter wasn't so serious, your post would be quite comical in its absurd notions, and silly conclusions. The seriousness of the subject comes in 2 principle lines of argument, first, the cunning continuation of the counter reformation behind your post and it's plausibility...

    I would agree with this, but with the proviso that we repent. Yes, the full price has been paid, but there are conditions to be met if the efficacy of redemption is fulfilled. Repentance, which is in effect a gift of God, being the power of the holy Spirit to forsake sin and walk in Christ's...

    Seventh-day Adventist

    I have seen this argument so many times, and it makes no more impact on me personally than the proclamations from shamans in Jamaica. You may convince yourself that this is true, and perhaps even some that read it, but my experience and observation of other Adventists have proved this false. I...

    Which bible teachings do you think are made up by the church or true teachings of the bible?

    Teachings/doctrines that are not in the Bible... Sunday sacredness. And closely associated with that...the abolition of the 7th day Sabbath. Christian groups attempt to justify the above, but both are a product of tradition, not scripture.

    I'm Hungry Right Now, What are you munching On?

    Not a mango fan myself. But certainly have indulged from time to time. Couldn't believe the prices in Australia compared to the 7$ we had to pay back in NZ.

    Meal Offerings

    Thank you. And agreed. Although the theme of this section is about Christian spirituality, and my post was intended to reveal how the offering of sacrifice of whatever nature it be, and at whatever time and circumstance we may find ourselves in, cannot be dissociated with prayer and the offering...

    Meal Offerings

    I'm not sure what you mean. Are you saying Andreason was making the sanctuary services a personal subjective opinion... Or me by quoting it...or both?

    Meal Offerings

    There are rich lessons to be learned from the OT sanctuary service. From M L Andreasen...The Sanctuary Service. Sanctified by the Spirit. The flour used in the meal offerings was not to be offered dry; it was to be mingled with oil, or anointed with oil. (Leviticus 2:4,5) The oil is the...

    Is it okay to eat pork?

    Food nutritionists and food science folk have great difficulty in classifying bacon as food.

    Is it okay to eat pork?

    To keep them healthy and alive and at their prime in order to serve Him as a testimony to God's wisdom and power. Same reason that Christians are called to eat and drink and do whatever to God's glory

    Is it okay to eat pork?

    Was it ever ceremonial? Do you have some scripture to back that up?

    My agnostic friend says: "I don't need it." - How would you respond?

    I said...As far as salvation is concerned, God has made all the provisions necessary for all mankind to be brought to saving faith in Christ...and I believe that is an accurate statement. "God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance". 2 Peter 3:9 "For God...
