Subject: can I eat shellfish? |
Bible Note: No problem, I did lead one to believe that with my arguments, and when I reply in depth later, I will attempt to make that argument; however, I thought it only fair to let you know where I actually stand on the issue. That being said, I do eat according to the Biblical food laws (not Kosher which is MUCH more rules based) but I do not do so to earn any points. At some point I would like to write a one page paper on why I eat the way I do, and when I do I will certainly let you know. But do not confuse my eating habits and my arguments-to-come with my doctrinal stand. I wouldn't "teach" this in my church. So why make the argument? Because it helps me a lot and forces others to have a firmer understanding of why they believe what they believe. And this is a safe place to test things out. I was surpirsed when I first joined to find such knowledgable people here and am greatful for the opportunity this forum provides. God Bless, MJH |
