He believes he should keep the OT dietary law.
Yet he doesn't believe that he has to keep the OT "clothing" law
And you don't, as is evidenced by the simple command given in Deut.22:11. It is a simple command. Do you wear clothing all made of one cloth Bob? Yes or no. We all know the answer. Why do you transgress the command of God in this matter?
Actually it is pretty simple - as I stated - go with scripture - not DHK's wild "Reaching" for some non-Bible argument to undermine what scripture says.
No you don't. You avoid Scripture, rationalize it, disobey it, but you won't obey it.
A -- that is not a quote of anything.
I never though I would see the day when you would outright deny the Word of God. If I paste John 3:16 would you also say: "This is not a quote of anything." Shame on you. Let me quote it again, this time in some context.
Deuteronomy 22:9-11 Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled.
10 Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together.
11 Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and linen together.
The Lord is teaching principles of separation, and principles of purity. It seen all throughout these Scriptures. The vineyard must be planted with only one kind of seed. It must be pure. Otherwise it will be defiled, just as sin defiles the person. Be ye separated.
An ox must plow with another ox, not with another animal. Again the principle of unity and separation from others that are not in unity with your faith is taught.
Wear one type of cloth. More than one type results in impurity. That is the picture here. Which part of this do you not get??
I ask again, therefore, do you wear only one type of cloth, as the law demands??
B - the text specifically addresses linen and wool. Deal with it.
The text is applicable to all types of cloth. I believe you ought to deal with it.
Thus in my answer I AFFIRMED the text of Deut 22 and ask you why you quote it as if it is some great burden and we should not obey it because God is too severe.
The law is severe. No man can keep the law. That is why Christ abolished the law. He nailed it to the cross. We bear it no more. The great words that Christ uttered on the cross "It is finished," the work of Christ is finished. He is the lamb that takes away the sin of he world. He fulfilled the law. There is no longer any more sacrificial lambs to be sacrificed or any more related Levitical laws to keep. He fulfilled it all.
THIS you take as some kind of "proof" that texts of scripture can be tossed under the bus just because you don't like them?? What in the world are you thinking??
No, I believe in the work of Christ, the finished work of Christ, don't you?
But then -- even worse - you appear to not even have read what I posted as you say
I read it. You didn't answer my question. You just jumped around, rationalizing.
