There was no such thing as rain before the flood. There was a canopy of water like an umbrella over the whole earth. It protected the inhabitants from UV rays. Water seeped from the earth as well. Before the flood, they lived hundreds of yrs and not just 100 which is what began after the flood when the canopy was removed.
Somebody gets it. PA and FNJ are correct.
I have posted dozens, maybe even more then a 100 posts here since I came on about diet and lifestyle and raw foodism and veganism and the scientific studies and also what the bible says about it and/or strongly implies.
Anyone with a open mind and average intellect and a vibrant prayer life that genuinely searches and seeks to expand can read my posts and come to your conclusions with eyes open, rather then closed, like some arr now.
How any Christian can think God is actively endorsing the killing of animals is beyond me. Read your bibles. It was not Gods original intent. We live in a fallen world, so we do it, but it is a savage act, killing. Why do you think it was such a solemn ritual when we sinned. Life for life. Jesus halted that, but man still kills.
Yes, Jesus ate fish, again, God was not endorsing it. Jesus knew it was better not to insult anyone as to turn them away, yet He also knew that eating animal flesh is a lower state of being. The life is on the blood. You all have animal blood in you.
Man got more aggressive after partaking in meat flesh.
I have studied this stuff doe not years, but decades. I have worked along side some of the best ND's and nutrition's, who are, if not world renowned, then at least known well in this country, If I didn't have a personal tragedy in early 2015, I would have finished my degree.
I came on this site 9 months with the intention of mainly to try and help and share my experience and knowledge for those who would be open to it. I keep saying it, I get paid for the info I have given out. Being a Christian, I was trying to help other Christians.
I knew from the decades of doing this it was going to be a uphill battle even with a Christian crowd, actually, especially with a Christian crowd. So many of you have no clue of what your talking about in this area and yet type and speak like you are the ones who have been studying this, and went to school for this. and practiced this for a long time. Everyone has a right to speak and to a opinion, not matter how misguided or uninformed. Just that what some of you are putting out there is patently false, and you may be misleading others who re sincerely confused, or interested about this.
Part of the problem is that the same emotional and psychological issues that drive some of you to obey every thought and word of conventional western medicine and your doctors, feeding you drugs that kill you, is what is driving you here. Your not ready to take responsibility for your health. It is easier to say veganism or a raw food diet doesn't line up with scriptures, or that it doesn't produce results then to take the time and investigate, do you diligence and homework. That takes work, and a open mind. Some of you just don't have it in you.
The other aspect is that if you do conclude it is a rational, God approved life style, and you can't or won't do it, your now burdened with the realization that your sick because you don't have self control or discipline in this arena. No one wnats that, so better to just tear it down and convince yourselves your right.
Some of you are already sick because of your lifestyles. And taking a lot of meds that are making you sicker. Some of you younger folks will be sick like the older ones in another 15, 20 years. If your okay with meds, and limited mobility and all the aches and pains that come because of your life styles, go for it.
The good news is that it will not affect your salvation one bit. It may affect your power, but not your salvation. We are all going to die. Those of you that want to die sooner, and that don't mind robbing your families and the church and the unsaved of your services and love, go for it. You'll get to experience first hand the fruit of your selfishness and ignorance.
I am the crazy one here, not you all. Your just acting out and parroting your lack of knowledge. From my years of experience I should know what I am up against, and just let it go. By repeating myself over and over, in the hope of trying to get through to some of you, I am not following Jesus example of putting out a message and who gets it, gets it, and who doesn't, doesn't. I have nothing to gain beyond the hope that I have helped some people. i don't lose any sleep if you'll don't believe. I believe in the free will and the right to make your choices. I just think that education and knowledge are important tools in making those choices. It seems some of you don't follow that same thought.
I just hope and pray that at least maybe one or two of you see the light for your own bodies sake and the sake of your service to Christ in your ministry and for you families and friends.
OT. NT, still a stiffed neck people. The price of our sin nature.
