NASB | Mark 7:19 because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is eliminated?" (Thus He declared all foods clean.) |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Mark 7:19 since it does not enter his heart, but [only] his stomach, and [from there it] is eliminated?" (By this, He declared all foods ceremonially clean.) |
Bible Question (short): Does Mark 7:19 contradict Acts 15:29? |
Question (full): Please explain why Mark 7:19 is not in contradiction to Acts 15:29. Does the fact that one is said by Jesus and the other by an agreed upon letter make a difference? I do not think so. I already believe that the Bible has no contradictions. I just want to be equipped to answer this question since it was put to me some time ago(before I found this Forum) and I was at a loss to explain. I have searched this question on the Forum and it appears not to be answered in a straight forward manner. Please avoid smoke and mirrors. If you do not know, please, please do not guess:-) God Bless....Jensen |
