I was curious if anyone could give me some insight into 1 Timothy 4:3. I was wondering if it is talking about literal food that we eat , or the meat of the word. | ||||||
2 | 1 Timothy 4:3 is it taking about food or | 1 Tim 4:3 | greentwiga | 141527 | ||
It is simply talking about meat from cows, etc. Remember, back then was a huge problem with legalism. Various people would advocate living by various laws with some sort of logical justification. It was not only the Jewish law, but other systems. Some would say you can't eat meat because it was sacrificed to demons, or it would give the appearance of that. Instead of focusing on being free to go anywhere, and eat with anyone, to preach the Gospel. people had legalism lock themselves away from preaching the simple gospel. Can you imagine how much time one would have to spend preaching against getting married? This would be a message driving unsaved away. The bodily discipline of no marraige and not eating meat would be held in highest honor, but Paul says it is of little value, spiritual discipline is the real value. this verse helps show that it is meat being talked about.
