Is Eating Pork Allowed By The Bible? Prt2/3 || MCGI Topic Review.

in MCGI Cares Hive23 hours ago

It is important to understand that there are some laws that are not forever. If we read the Bible well, we will know that not eating pork is a temporary commandment.
Are we allowed to eat pork or not? We will know that in Genesis 1:28 which says; And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

So, this apparently means that every living thing that moves on earth is given to us from God and they can serve as meat for us. This commandment was made by God to Adam and Eve until the time of Noah.
Whatever moves on earth and can serve as a source of meat for us can be eaten. It is given to us by God.

But when God has chosen his people, the people of Isreal and after he brought them out of Egypt safely, he gave them some certain rules and regulations which they should follow and that was where the law kf not eating pork came to earth.

Hebrews 9:10 says; Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.

So there was clearly a time of reformation and the law was just for a temporary time. At the same time, it wasn’t for everyone in the part of the world then because not everyone were Israelites then. This means the law did not cover everyone in every part of the world the and also, the law had a time of reformation which means it was not a law we can stick to all the days of our lives.

So, yes! You can eat pork because God has given us the power to eat everything that has meat on earth.

What about when God told Noah to bring the unclean animals by two's and the clean animals by sevens on the Ark?

This is way before any Israelite was on earth. So back then, God made a clear distinction between clean and unclean. And God never changes so.....?

Hmm
I can reason from your end too
