Whew! That means that all of the Eastern Orthodox Churches did not become corrupt, even though they were founded by Constantine. They assuredly worshiped Jesus Christ on the day of His resurrection - Sunday.

The vision was not about food, but about the gospel being preached to the Gentiles as it was clearly explained.... but it also clearly shows foods were not made clean after the cross after ....it is finished, no changes which reconciles with Revelation 18:2 Isaiah 66:17You mean the foods that God told Peter to eat in Acts 10? Now I know that vision was about entering the house of a gentile. But along with that would be the foods that Cornelius and other gentiles would be serving. Remember it's not just the animal itself that's clean or unclean, but all the stipulations regarding the preparation, that if not followed make even clean animals unclean. So it seems highly likely Peter was being served and eating unclean animal flesh according to Levitical law - after Peter was told, “Do not call anything unclean that God has made clean.” Acts 10:15
It's never a good idea to disobey God regardless of the commandment. God never made the Sabbath as a standalone commandment; it is part of His eternal Ten personally written by the finger of God, kept in the Most Holy of His Temple. Revelation 11:19 under His mercy seat and what we will be judged by. If we break one of these, we break them all. James 2:10-12 scripture says those who do not keep His commandments, there is no truth 1 John 2:4. God just wants to spend time with us on the day He set aside- sanctified for holy use and sad how many people fight this blessing. Isaiah 58:13-14Any church not keeping the seventh day sabbath is/was corrupt.
I disagreeAny church not keeping the seventh day sabbath is/was corrupt.
The eastern churches were established by the apostles long before Constantine was even born.Whew! That means that all of the Eastern Orthodox Churches did not become corrupt, even though they were founded by Constantine. They assuredly worshiped Jesus Christ on the day of His resurrection - Sunday.
True, and touching unclean things.You mean the foods that God told Peter to eat in Acts 10? Now I know that vision was about entering the house of a gentile. But along with that would be the foods that Cornelius and other gentiles would be serving.

And sin offerings and burnt offerings had to be performed by a clean person which dispels the notion that meat offered to idols by Gentiles was considered to be clean and done in accordance with Jewish tradition.True, and touching unclean things.
Whoever touches anything that was under him shall be unclean until the evening. He who carries those things shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening.
Leviticus 15
Well, based on this translation, it looks like water that was in the unclean pot.That is a terrible translation. Soaked is not implied. It is misleading. And the verse needs to be understood within the context of the passages in which it is in. With that said, what kind of water Leaf?
YepWell, based on this translation, it looks like water that was in the unclean pot.
Suppose one of these animals falls into a clay pot. Then everything in the pot will be “unclean.” You must break the pot. 34 Any food that could be eaten but has water on it that came from that pot is “unclean.” And any liquid that could be drunk from it is “unclean.”
-New International Reader's Version
Keeping the Sabbath only, or also eating clean foods and tithing?Well all of the church except for the latter day remnant that obeyed God by keeping the sabbath (Revelation 12:17).
Does that mean that you're agreeing with this part that AV wrote, or disagreeing?The church as a whole didn’t become corrupt, only Rome did.
4. God's Representative is the Church the Holder of the Keys. The Roman Catholic Church.
Then carrying forward the idea about eating what is sold in the marketplace or what is set before you by an unbeliever,
The Roman Catholic Church was once part of the apostolic Church of God but was excommunicated in 1054AD.Does that mean that you're agreeing with this part that AV wrote, or disagreeing?
love the Orthodox take on this.The Roman Catholic Church was once part of the apostolic Church of God but was excommunicated in 1054AD.
Originally I got this information from Britanica because I wanted a reliable secular source that was not partial towards either side of the debate and even Wikipedia substantiates the information I got from Britanica and I get the same information from the EOC.love the Orthodox take on this.
So says the RCC, as well. Constantine ruled from Byzantium, not Rome, and the only connection between him and the RCC is the fact that he ruled an empire which included an undivided church. The RCC actually did not appear until the Great Schism.The eastern churches were established by the apostles long before Constantine was even born.
You don’t have to take the RCC’s word for it or the EOC’s word for it the Eastern churches and the church in Rome are mentioned in the Bible. The church in Jerusalem in the Bible, the church in Antioch in the Bible, the church in Rome in the Bible. The city of Constantinople was established by Constantine but not the church. All Constantine did was end the persecution of Christians and made Christianity legal.So says the RCC, as well.

I have a feeling Christian gentiles under the law found a way to skate around those rules.True, and touching unclean things.

Leviticus 15
Me too.I disagree
My impression was that the gentile Christians - and many Jewish ones - generally didn't think of themselves as under the law of Moses. If they had, letters like Corinthians would have been full of answers to questions about how to keep the finer points of the law far away from Jerusalem.I have a feeling Christian gentiles under the law found a way to skate around those rules.
