Bible Note: EdB, The context of the chapter is whats important. In order to find out the meaning of what was being implied,not just one verse. Jesus was talking about PEOPLE and not FOOD. If I thought that every creature was clean. Couldn't I then be a Cannabal, and purchase human flesh at the meat market. And not feel that it is unclean in Gods eyes...(hypotheticly of course) God was saying no to refuse any PERSON. He was not saying not to refuse any FOOD. Using this one verse out of context does not give enough support that God was saying EAT ANYTHING you want. ITS ALL GOOD. Matt |
