    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    Well well. Someone has studied the different laws. In my opinion, if a person has not processed the entire Bible in to identify the various Laws, their understanding of the Saving Plan of Jesus Christ will be hindered, especially when the person they're witnessing to starts asking questions...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    I hear you! I have read that set of passages so many times, but it wasn't until the other day that that phrase stuck out to me ("Kill and eat.") The entire Bible is one big metaphor, living analogy, and physical pattern for Spiritual principles, etc . . . so my eyes and ears are dialed in to...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    Thank you for your kind message. As for above, I have noticed what you're talking about, which is that the early Christians were living a combination of the Law and the brand of Christianity that Paul was introduced and strongly taught. One of the things that lends credit to your position, is...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    I realize that "kill and eat" is not the point of the vision. Rather, it is used as a tool to help us understand the point of the parable. Therefore, what does "kill and eat" refer to? I'm sure you realize that what we read in the Bible is a worldly or Earthly pattern of something else, usually...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    But what about the passages where God Himself charges Israel with creating man-made laws that have nothing to do with Moses and the Law of God etched upon stone. The Jews were absolutely allowed to intermarry with the Gentiles (by God Himself). And as I have studied the Scriptures, word by word...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    Hey there! Oh, that's right! I forgot that you had bought one of those Bibles. Have you found it helpful to learn the Bible in an actual storyline format? I am about two months away from listening to and reading the entire Bible again. This time . . . oh my goodness. I can't believe what I...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    Apology accepted, and glad to hear that you are not the ignoring type. I'm not either until a person does it to me. Anyway, in my opinion, the trick to Christian Forums is learning how to communicate in a way that is conducive to the system provided. I could easily type out ten pages in about...

    I'm sorry. It's probably me, as I am swamped, but I'm not understanding what you're referring to.

    i don't understand what you're talking about. What is this "something" that you are referring to?

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    No doubt about it. In fact, the New Testament faithfully records that the Apostles still didn't fully understand the Gospel. These same leaders of ours, in the beginning, were placing upon the shoulders of Christians, elements of the Law of Moses. By the time Galatians is written, however, Peter...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    Thanks for sharing. I hadn't even considered the status of Simon the tanner of hides. I've recently written about this Simon, but don't recall ever seeing any Biblical information that indicated his genuine status. I just read in a Bible dictionary that because he was living outside of the city...

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    A couple of things: 1) I posted, in another thread, that perhaps you might consider writing shorter messages, as I suggested that you might be overwhelming people. You didn't acknowledge my words, which was certainly underwhelming. So, you have already built a wall between us and I am hesitant...

    The Torah is Still Binding and We Must Obey It

    I don't quite understand that. Could you rephrase? Thanks!

    Peter's Vision - Kill & Eat

    Is it possible that Peter's Vision also served as a purpose to get Peter to realize that he and the Jewish believers no longer need to follow the Jewish customs regarding what is and is not considered clean. He even stated that he had continued, to that day, following the customs of Moses since...
