Who made that rule?
Is the promised land still an abomination? (
Jer 2:7)
You seem to be taking this verse out of context. It doesn't say the promised land is an abomination
Jer 2:7 I brought you into a bountiful country,
To eat its fruit and its goodness.
But
when you entered, you defiled My land
And made My heritage an abomination.
The people defiled the land and made it an abomination, not that the land is or was ever an abomination.
When did it become a "risk" to take Jesus at his word (Mt 15:11, Ac 10:14-15)?
Jesus (Mk 7:15) and Paul (Ro 14:14) both say that no food is unclean.
Why do you not believe them?
Jesus was never speaking of food. He was using food as an illustration in a parable and said plainly what He meant
Mat 15: 15 Then Peter answered and said to Him,
“Explain this parable to us.” (obviously not about food or no explaining would be needed)
16 So Jesus said,
“Are you also still without understanding? 17 Do you not yet understand that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and is eliminated? 18
But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile a man. 1
9 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. 20
These are the things which defile a man, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man.”
Why Peter after 20+ years after this still never ate unclean foods, because he knew it wasn't what Jesus was referring to as He clearly explained in the parable.
Acts 10:4 But Peter said, “Not so, Lord! For I have never eaten anything common or unclean.”
It becomes a risk when Jesus tells us at His return what happens ....and we choose not to believe. He gave us plenty of clean foods to eat, not worth the risk for me, but we are given free will.
Isa 66:17 “Those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves,
To go to the gardens
[
a]After an
idol in the midst,
Eating swine’s flesh and the abomination and the mouse,
Shall [
b]be consumed together,” says the Lord.
When did it become a "risk" to take Jesus at his word
Never
Why I would seriously reconsider this statement when you indicated previously we do not have to listen to His teachings and preaching on His own Law said to "whoever" meaning for everyone Mat 5:19 or in Mat 15:3-14, which obviously would include Mat 15:11 His teachings were never pick the ones we like and the others are "old covenant"
Jesus was born, lived, preached and died under the Old Covenant law.
