We live under grace.And BECAUSE WE LIVE UNDER GRACE, the consumption of blood is forbidden (Acts 15:28,29). This is under grace and under the leading of the Holy Spirit for Christians:28 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; 29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.Why is blood forbidden? Because Christians were purchased with the blood of God (Acts 20:28).I would rather listen to the words of a ministry.A solid devout ministry.

We are not under the Law but under grace. “Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink” (Colossians 2:16). So, eating a rare steak, blood sausage, blood pancakes, blood soup, or blood tofu may not be palatable to all Christians, but it is allowable.http://www.gotquestions.org/eating-drinking-blood.html Edited November 15, 2015 by bopeep1909 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't judge it wrong to. Everyone has their little ways in which they feel closer to God. This is just one of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Christians can't buy or sell because they won't take the mark they can still have some good eaten! I am afraid that when the time comes during the tribulation and Christians can not buy or sell that they will be hunted down like wild boar.I am afraid there will not be many of them left.

You should rather listen to the words of Scripture when they are quoted in context. Your retort and implication are typical of those who resist Scripture when it exposes their incorrect of false ideas (which happens frequently). Your response should really have been "Thanks. I can see that Scripture is very clear about this matter under grace". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would have been way more just and honest Bopeep --to say that you chose to disagree on this pt---rather than let your words imply Ezra does not have a "solid devout ministry" . Please show me where I said I rejected Ezra's words and thought they were false doctrine.You are putting words in my mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Books, websites, pastors, etc, are all of a source that is not God. I am not saying they are right or wrong, but without the guidance of His Spirit, we are lost in the desert.
