Religious Cults & False Prophets~ Discussions and DebatesPaul and the LawI will go ahead and answer your questions though you completely ignore mine. Is eating pork, lobster, etc sinful? Leviticus 11:47 - To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten. They certainly are unclean animals as God said. I don't eat them anymore b/c God has shown me the error in it. And I would caution you as well, there is wisdom in what God said. Is it sinful? I don't know, but I will definitely pray about it and hopefully God will give me something more to tell you on this. Observing festivities and such? Christ is our Passover. As I've said time and time again, some things are foreshadowings of things to come. If one has not celebrated (observed) the Passover, then how can that person claim to be Christ's. You ask do I celebrate this. The holiday which pointed to those who would believe as covered by the blood of the lamb. Do you not celebrate this? This passover in which the Angerl of Death did not touch the houses of those who were covered by the blood was a foreshadowing of something to come. Christ is our Passover. Any who has truly been covered by the blood of the lamb, is in celebration of it. 1 Corinthians 5:7 - Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth Notice he says let us keep the feast with unleavened bread. Christ is our passover, in which the first seven days were the feast of unleavened bread. Christ is that unleavened bread we partake of and it is in Him that we truly celebate any of th feasts described in the Law. For example, Paul tells us to keep the feast not with the old leaven (malice and wickedness) but with the unleavened bread (sincerity and truth). As to not keep it with those old dead works (eating actual bread which does nothing to make righteous), but with the unleavened bread of Christ (which is able to save). As you see the law has not been changed. We still keep the feasts, but we do them in spirit which is the manifestation of the letter of the law. Such as, not to be angry with your brother without a cause. He was not changing the law of thou shalt not kill. But he was pointing to the rememdy that, they who hear may keep the law. Anger is the seed that gives birth to violence which leads to murder in some cases. This is why He says to clean the inside of the cup. If you stop lusting for another woman, you will not commit adultery. If you are not mad with your brother, you will not kill him. And so on. So as to whether or not keeping the Passover? I'll say, that if it is not celebrated (in spirit that is), that person is still in their sins and has no part in Christ. Love Always, |
