None of us, in our right minds, eat diseased beef, so that is kind of a non-starter.  

Indeed you would "think" that a prohibition against eating diseased beef and eating rats - would not get so much opposition ... just because it is in Lev 11.

You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

Galatians 5:4

If the argument is that anyone who honors God's Word in Lev 11 regarding not eating diseased beef and/or rats --- is falling from Grace and alienated from Christ - then I suggest a more careful review of the New Covenant is in order.

 

God says in Lev 11 not to eat rats, cats, dogs, bats --- and of course some people will object. But that is no reason to argue that avoiding such things -- is "falling from grace"

How long will diseased beef keep coming up? lol

Drink a cup of vinegar or maybe warm salt water to get it to come up -  it is not good if it stays down !

I didn't see anything about 'no pork' in Acts 15. (How long will diseased beef keep coming up? lol)

The prohibition comes from Lev 11. Hence the title of the thread and that is the chapter that tells us that diseased beef and rats are not fit for food. As much as some have strongly objected -- that is what scripture says.

Absolem simply quoted Gal 5:4, it was directed at anyone specifically.

The last year or longer,  that has been done a lot,  and I've seen NO ONE who has ever shown ANYONE who was trying to be justified by keeping all the law,  ever,  so far.   On this forum or others.    

I think I saw one or two posters somewhere who claimed they were with God before they were born on earth, and they were like one of the two witnesses or something like that,  and they claimed they were sinless,  but

other than a couple extremes like that 

neither you nor Absolem nor anyone else has

ever shown that someone was trying to be justified by keeping the whole law,  or more importantly also, not by faith.

Y'all seem to miss that keeping the law is a good thing,  TORAH is PERFECT and good when used as YHWH meant.

Sure and truth,  but remember that in today's society msg is actually packaged and sold as a 'flavor',  in the grocery store,  for men, women, parents, and (presumably) children and babies also.   Likewise many disease causing ingredients freeliy given in abundance to almost anyone by their own family,  causing much illness, death and troubles.  (not to mention,  or rather let's mention, yes,  all the sheer profit to the food and drink industry, and many many times more to the sickness industry/drug lords) ...

Quote anyone who posted , quote their post,  who is trying at all to be justified by the law .

Also,  in the country, city, country you live in ,  do you obey the law (of the gov/authorities) ?   If so, why ?

Romans 3:19

Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them that are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

Have you kept up with your offerings of lambs, rams, and bullocks too?

And ye shall offer with the bread seven lambs without blemish of the first year,

 

have you kept up with Hebrews 10:4-12 telling us that the sacrifices have ended? In the mean time few of us would be "disappointed" that scripture says not to eat diseased beef and rats in Lev 11.

Indeed that LAW of God applies to the whole world.

So then in Rom 3:31 we have this as the conclusion "What do we make void the LAW of God by our faith? God forbid!! In fact we establish the Law of God"

Or were you just 'kidding' with question  #1?

Not at all.   See the answer in the BIBLE.   (look specifically for the words "justify", "justified",  "justification" in every occurence -

from your posts,  when / if YHWH allows you to see it not just as a parable, but as He means it for His disciples,  it will be a great surprise (and WONDERFUL!)  for you)

He Delights to do this: " Then opened HE their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,"

WHEN He Does this.
