Bible Note: Frankly, Mathew, I'm prepared to dismount, unstrap the saddle from this (unclean?) horse, and give it a rest. BradK, EdB, Emmaus, and srbaegon all have given you fine responses which you obviously have chosen to ignore, albeit you have been kind and civil in your posts for which I commend you. You persist in calling OT dietary laws moral laws, being apparently oblivious to any distinction between the two categories. If you wish to continue to believe as you do, and turn a deaf ear to the efforts of my colleagues on the forum who have done an excellent job of exegeting this issue from both an OT and a NT perspective, who am I to try to cram meat down your throat, so to speak? So, on that note, I beg your indulgence in allowing me to exit this thread in the same spirit of peace and goodwill with which I entered it. So, bye-bye for now, and whatever the menu at your dinner table this evening, be it vegetarian or venison, costly or humbly eleemosynary, Bon Appetit! --Hank |
