Hi GnP

The above is too much for today, Sunday.
I will answer your questions and leave the rest for Tomorrow.
Surprised you didn't quote Hebrews, but we'll take what you posted.

2. By faith. Then came "works".

3. We will never be perfect. We can only TRY.

Manana.
Happy Sonday.

Really? Three threads on works isn't enough for you, so you're trying to get every thread to be about works?

Simple solution: If you don't like arguing, then don't argue.

As we study God’s Word, it’ important to keep the following verse in mind


2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.


Some people point to Acts 10, which they think says it’s now okay to eat pork. However, Acts 10 is about people, not about food.

God is using this as an analogy. God will not allow Peter to touch these wild creatures. God did not allow Peter to eat any part of this filth, for God is using these animals to teach Peter something entirely different.


The word common also means unclean. Where the previous uses of the word "unclean" were in reference to evil spirits, here it is in reference to the ceremonial uncleanness of the Levitical law. Every one of these animals and fowl was listed as unfit from the mouth of God Himself.


The next place people quote when they try to justify eating scavengers is 1 Timothy 4:3.

1 Timothy 4:3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

The most important part of this verse is the very part that most Christians, pastors included, skip right over. That part is, "which God hath created to be received..." First let's fix the fact that with thanksgiving, all those things that are stated in God's Word that are able to be received, can be eaten by those that believe and know the truth.

Do you know those things that are written in God's health laws that are good to be eaten, from those things that are not to be eaten?


If you do not know those health laws, it is no wonder that you are poor in health. God did not intend for you to eat garbage cans, and vacuum sweepers. That is what He created certain animals for, to be the garbage cans and vacuum sweepers of the earth. They are the ones that can hold, store and live of the putrefied things on the earth. Your body was not created to do so.


The truth is in God's Word. Preachers are teaching that we can partake of any and everything that we want to, and they say this their documentation for saying such a thing. They teach that as long as you give thanks for what you eat, you can eat anything.

However, if that is what you derive from that, you have a problem, you have the hot iron of deception and doctrines of devils that have seared your mind. You are just not paying attention to what God's Word has to say.


God's Word doesn't say you may partake of any meat that there is.


Quite the contrary, it says "WHICH GOD HATH CREATED TO BE RECEIVED..."

This means that there is a condition applied to what is being said. What conditions then is all the meats that God has said that He created as food as stated in God's Word, those are the ones that we are to eat with thanksgiving.


God also created many creatures that are not for consumption, and he listed them in his health laws. The warning is by God that you can't eat those without suffering the consequences when one shows up in poor health.

Each animal has its own purpose, some are for food while others are not.

Oh! I really was silly to think someone on here wanted to learn something, wasn't I?

Noper. This is all about teaching the stupid.

Helpful hint since you consider yourself the wise teacher: No one sits under a teacher who assumes everyone sitting under him is stupid.

Mark 7:15-20
There is nothing outside a person that by going into him can defile him, but the things that come out of a person are what defile him.” And when he had entered the house and left the people, his disciples asked him about the parable. And he said to them, “Then are you also without understanding? Do you not see that whatever goes into a person from outside cannot defile him, since it enters not his heart but his stomach, and is expelled?” (Thus he declared all foods clean.) And he said, “What comes out of a person is what defiles him.

Acts 10:9-16
The next day, as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop about the sixth hour to pray. And he became hungry and wanted something to eat, but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance and saw the heavens opened and something like a great sheet descending, being let down by its four corners upon the earth. In it were all kinds of animals and reptiles and birds of the air. And there came a voice to him: “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.” ...

Though be kind don't make animals suffer for their meat for food, do it quickly and be humanitarian about it and give thanksgiving.

1 Timothy 4:4
For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,
