Steve,
If God says Thou shalt not kill and hopefully you believe that this commandment applies today, then why would you not think God means it when He commands you not to eat swine's flesh?
Did you know when autopsys are done on dead bodies that 1 out of 5 have larvae that comes from eating pork in their bodies and that many many diseases are caused by this, when people dont realize thats really the cause of the disease?
Why if God says Thou shalt not kill, do you believe that it is acceptable to kill YOURSELF on the installment plan? slowly.
1Cor:6:19: What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
How can you be the temple of the Holy Spirit and turn around and eat swines flesh?
do you know WHY Peter, when told to kill and eat unclean animals said: "Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth." ??
It was because Peter KNEW that just because Jesus died on the cross, that didnt mean it was now ok to eat unclean meats.
The entire passage wasnt about diet, it was about the gentiles and not regarding them as unclean anymore.
Acts 11
4: But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order unto them, saying,
5: I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:
6: Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
7: And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.
8: But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.
GOD MEANS WHAT HE SAYS
1Cor:3:17: If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy ; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
