The OT Law and commandments were not the things nailed to the cross. I was right, you have no idea what was nailed to the cross.
Vultures, rats, snakes, dogs, pigs and any other thing declared to be unclean meat in the Bible is not FOOD.
I tell the SDA's that ritual Saturday worship was instuited by Moses, and it was a regulation of the Mosaic and Davidic covenants. We are not entered into those covenants and we are not subject to those regulations. We are entered into the coventant established by Christ, and ritual Saturday worship is not a regulation of Christ's covenant.
Okay, the same goes for your pork regulation: It is a regulation of the Mosaic and Davidic covenants. We are not entered into those covenants and we are not subject to those regulations. We are entered into the coventant established by Christ, and He never commanded that we follow such rules.
Different rules for different groups and their respective covenants.
That's funny. You have to be kidding.We are in the Abrahamic covenant.It preceeded the law.In fact,the law had to be removed,so that Gentiles could recieve the promise,as it says in Galatians 3:14.I am so happy to be in grace,and to have a true rest.I struggled under law,and let me tell you,it is not God's way.When I let go,his power was perfected in my weakness.
And who was in charge of the Law during the time of Jesus and PaulWe are in the Abrahamic covenant.It preceeded the law.

Sure it does,it says redeemed from the curse..SO THAT THE blessing might come to the Gentiles.The promise came by faith,not the law as per Galatians 3:18 and Romans 4:13.That's funny. You have to be kidding.
Gal. 3:14 says no such thing.
I dont quite undertsand what you mean,the promise came 430 years before the law,and the law is not of faith,and the just shall live by faith,and those are the sons of Abraham.And who was in charge of the Law during the time of Jesus and Paul
Matthew 3:9 "And no ye should be thinking to say in yourselves 'a father we are having, the Abraham'.
For I am saying unto ye, that is able the God, out of the stones, these, to raise-up children to the Abraham.
Luke 16:24 And he sounding said "Father Abraham! be thou merciful to-me! and send Lazarus! that he should be dipping the tip of the finger of him of water and should be cooling down the tongue of me, that I am being pained in the Flame this."

Rich-man and Lazarus True story or Parable
I agree!I dont quite undertsand what you mean,the promise came 430 years before the law,and the law is not of faith,and the just shall live by faith,and those are the sons of Abraham.Galatians 3:7 Know then that it is those of faith who are the sons of Abraham.
Yes Little lamb of Jesus,that was an excellent point,and would be a great idea for a thread.I agree!
I can picture that "great chasm" in Luke 16:26 as symbolizing that FAITH
Note Luke 16:26 and Hebrew 11:29 and the greek words used #1224, and note the other greek word #1276 used.
Would make for an interesting thread
Luke 16:26 And upon all of these between us and ye a great chasm hath been established so that those willing to cross-over/diabhnai <1224> (5629) hence toward ye no may be able, neither thence toward us may be ferrying/diaperwsin <1276> (5725)
Hebrews 11:29 By Faith They crossed-over/diebhsan <1224> (5627) the Red Seaas thru Dry, which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.
I started deeply studying that "Covenantle Parable" some years back when I saw so many commentaries expressing that parable being the most "misunderstood" parable in the Bible.Yes Little lamb of Jesus,that was an excellent point,and would be a great idea for a thread.
Sure it does,it says redeemed from the curse..SO THAT THE blessing might come to the Gentiles.The promise came by faith,not the law as per Galatians 3:18 and Romans 4:13.
The Sabbath was created at creation at not with any covenant.
Text say that God rested on the seventh day, not that God kept or abserved a sabbath. We accept what is written as God's word.Why was the Sabbath even made at creation about 2000 years before Moses if it was just for a covenant.
Frogster gave you the facts about Christ reestablishing the Abrahamic Covenant, this was an everlasting covenant. (excellent replies FrogsterCan you show me in the bible what is the covenant instituted by Christ and what it involves?
What is the change made between both covenants?
Hi.Yes I also love Gal 3:29,where it says we are the offspring.The dividing wall of hostility has been removed.Eph 2:14,no more natural lineage.That's exactly right.
GOD reached back to the promises HE made with Abraham while allowing the curse of the law of moses to stand against those not born into the "new" covenant that Jesus established.
Jesus did not add to an existing covenant, He established His own, hence why we are referred to as children of Abraham.
<snip>and then he said we dont follow what the old testament says, only the new. to which i said ''in that case, homosexuality isnt a sin''<snip>
Jesus does not speak of unclean meat as food.
He is talking about eating with hands that are not ceremonially clean.
Jesus is not talking about eating vultures, rats, dogs, pigs and sea creatures that don't have both fins and scales.
There is never any place in the Bible that makes these detestable things clean or good for food.
Other that if one had a weak conscience,Paul said 2 times in Rom 14,that all food is clean.In 1 Cor 10,he said eat everything in the Corinth meat market,and eat whatever a Gentile sets before you.Jesus does not speak of unclean meat as food.

He said in 1 Tim 4,all creatures are Good.KJV(food)
And lets not forget the words of Jesus.
Luke 10:8 Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you.

Ro. 14 is talking about people weak in the faith eating only vegetables and not eating meat.
Unclean meat IS NOT FOOD! And is not mentioned here.
1 Tim. 4 tells us Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth
These are "every creature" that is being spoken of. There is no mention here of making unclean animals clean.
1 Cor. 10 is saying that idols are nothing and cannot defile things offered to them. He is saying not to worry whether the gentiles had offered the meat to idols or not.
He says nothing about eating unclean meat.
Lk. 10, again says nothing about eating unclean meat. You have to read that into it.
That's a no, no.
You really need to read the words that are there, not what someone told you they meant.
prove it is only vegetables??!Ro. 14 is talking about people weak in the faith eating only vegetables and not eating meat.
Unclean meat IS NOT FOOD! And is not mentioned here.

And dont forget,Peter ate at a roman guards house,(Acts 11),as did Paul after converting a romans guard in Acts 16..Gentile food was "unclean"..
