Subject: can I eat shellfish?

Bible Note: Dear Doc,

I'll have to respond more in depth when I am not caring for my 8 month old, but to clarify some questions I have of your post. What is WWCG?

I hope I do not interpret any doctrine in isolation. You are right that this would be wrong. My contention in the previous posts are to show that the two passages mentioned (Mark 7 and Peter's vision) are poor passages to use to make the point that the food laws have changed.

Your passages are much much better choices.

My personal believe is still that Gentile believers are not held to the dietary laws of Moses. I am uncertain about where I stand with Jews, but in recent days side with their following them.

If ever I change my thinking on any doctrine or understanding of scripture, it is always a long and thoughtful process. I don't believe in flipping back and fourth everytime you hear a good argument on one side or the other.

Sometimes on this forum I test some of the things I have been pondering in the back of my brain (I work and live a life that unfortunatly does not allow for me to progress as quickly as I wish with study.)

In the future I will show where historically the church has held a contrary view on such matters several times and I will show how the Gentile believers in the first 200 years followed much of the Mosaic Law.

I will also discuss the passage you list, but that is a big task.

Galations of course is a whole book, but I've read it so many times I about have it to memory and my understanding has shifted some.

Look forward to the time.
MJH
