high-line wire, I wouldn't stick my head in a lion's mouth, etc., etc., etc.

Mark 7:18-19; Matthew 15:11-19
Jesus said: "Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man." - Matthew 15:11. This text is often quoted to justify people in eating the unclean things, hmmm we shall see
If this veres above means not what goes into a man defiles him as some teach .
Then why do christians not smoke ?

Adam and Eve ate herbs according to knowledge given them by God Just as Noah and his family ate animals according to the knowledge God gave them. God is always testing man to see if he will choose the right way and do as God has said.
9 So God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them: “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.[SUP][a][/SUP] [SUP]2 [/SUP]And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, on every bird of the air, on all that move on the earth, and on all the fish of the sea. They are given into your hand. [SUP]3 [/SUP]Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you all things, even as the green herbs. [SUP]4 [/SUP]But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. [SUP]5 [/SUP]Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning; from the hand of every beast I will require it, and from the hand of man. From the hand of every man’s brother I will require the life of man.
NowGod's test of Noah
Noah knows what animals are clean and what makes them clean. If Noah were to eat from the unclean animals they would no longer be any for us to see, know or think about eating because there were only 2 of each the male and the female. There were 7 of the clean male and female so If he ate them they could bounce back. This is why we need to use scripture,our mind and the Holy Spirit. Just think it through, You can understand it if you want to let the Spirit lead you.
Is the fear and dread of man on every beast of the earth, Many animals have lost their fear of man and God let us know this would happen. He said do not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. [SUP]5 [/SUP]Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning; from the hand of every beast I will require it. Have your meat cooked well done. There is a reason it is called well done.

- Genesis 1:29And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
- Genesis 1:30And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
The food laws were given in genesis and magnified in leviticus that is what i mean
Genesis 9:4
King James Version (KJV)
4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
Is this part of the law of Moses ?
Leviticus 17
10 And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you,that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood.
13 And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust.
14 For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof:whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.
Acts 15
King James Version (KJV)
1 And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
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.

[h=3]Genesis 9:1-3[/h]King James Version (KJV)
9 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
