Sabbath is a shadow maybe that can tell us something ?
Jan 6, 2018 00:40
( the question is Is the FOOD unclean if someone did buy it on sabbath?)
Jan 6, 2018 00:38
Interesting If someone comes to your house On sabbath with Pizza and a beer- Hey I have pizza and Beer.. Im sorry man I cant,Its shabbath.If you did buy that stuff today I cant eat or drink it.
Jan 6, 2018 00:33
But if you go to a resturant I guess much of the food may be cooked or they buy food they sell on shabbath? if that is idol worship,is it then uclean on monday? (I think I did read somewhere - If someone buys you cloths on sabbath you cant wear it on sabbath)
Jan 6, 2018 00:28
But you also should not eat food offerd up to idols
Jan 6, 2018 00:27
@Birdie Interesting answer.because if your not worshipping God you are worshipping an idol (if you know it or not)

Messianic jews do agree Jesus is Lord so it is a Christian question
Jan 5, 2018 23:09
More of a Messianic Jew Question: It is not Ok to Buy or Sell on Sabbath,but if someone buys food (cooked before shabbath) And you eat it ,would that be a sin or breaking the shabbath commandment? (you did not ask the person to buy food,and it was made before shabbat )

Book VIII of Antiquities of the Jews:
Now the sagacity and wisdom which God had bestowed on Solomon was so great, that he exceeded the ancients; [….] God also enabled him to learn that skill which expels demons, which is a science useful and sanative to men. He composed such incantations also by which distempers are alleviated. And he left behind him the manner of using exorcisms, by which they drive away demons, so that they never return; and this method of cure is of great force unto this day; for I have seen a certain man of my own country, whose name was Eleazar, releasing people that w

@fredsbend " Jesus made all foods clean, Peter's dream" not sure that the dream had anything to do with food.

Do you think pig is unclean because it is unhealty or somthing else?
Nov 29, 2017 02:42
@fredsbend Ok , Im just thinking out loud I am having problems understanding what you can or cant eat.Both sides have a good argument
Nov 29, 2017 00:58
Questions: Before Moses ,did everyone eat pig ( or maybe pig has been seen as unhealty )
Nov 29, 2017 00:55
@fredsbend Thank you,that is a great answer!

@bruisedreed I know Jordan Peterson very well,great man,I have heard 1000 hours I guess of Jordans teaching.

@fredsbend " One where men killed each other for the right to marry her, or just to protect her name? Or one where her passions held such sway that entire nations warred because of her? Feminists see "women were commodities". Romantics see "women were prized, and their passions you fought for and earned". Thank You

Another point without God we are all doomed! And a part of that is to have his image in our life.If his image is there we are complete
Nov 6, 2017 01:57
@bruisedreed The question is a big question.I dont think a car will run as well when there missing some essentials parts.I dont think God created the world one way just so It can run just as well another.But sinces God knows problems will come He can restore .And that is a major part of the church,to restore.But the central part is however you see it,is that the roles need to be complete and He is coming for his perfect Bride.
Nov 5, 2017 20:28
@LeeWoofenden The point is roles represent God.Such as the woman as the helper.Nothing to do with culture.And since Israel both in creation story and history leaves egypt and does not have women priests , other nations ,cultures and religions did.
Nov 5, 2017 20:17
And the church is the body of Christ and represent God on earth.
Nov 5, 2017 20:08
There is a spiritual problem if The church does not represent what God created it for.
Nov 5, 2017 20:07
@bruisedreed" Why? Do you think that helpers can't be leaders also?" What is your point.Can amother be a father or can a father be a mother they both represent a role.Does not The human father tell us something about God the father?Fathers and mothers are both leaders.But not in the same way.There is a creation and an order,both tell us about God.If a woman is the helper of a man does not mean she cant be a leader.But she is not the head of the relationship or The church .
Nov 5, 2017 04:26
@LeeWoofenden Anotrher big question here ,Is the order a part of the image of God. The woman as helper A part of the image of God if so The question is over I think

The reason the gouverment takes so much place in most people lives is because the countrys only have a few million people so its more practical and would be stupid for America
Nov 4, 2017 17:55
@LeeWoofenden But you know the North europeen countrys are not socialism,they are monarchist that gives the country a national feeling ,and not a two party system but many partys,in sweeden a very big strong party is very anti immegration,so the right wing is strong in North europe.The general socialism picture is wrong.Because the media is so far left everywhere.Most people are right wing,just not far right wing
Nov 4, 2017 17:49
@LeeWoofenden agree
Nov 4, 2017 17:48
Maybe in east europe
Nov 4, 2017 17:48
There is no leader in europe that says God bless us
Nov 4, 2017 17:47
@LeeWoofenden North Europe does not give the world anything,no military,dont create anything,and everyone is the same-Still Not many know that in Europe in general the Right wing partys are doing very well
Nov 4, 2017 17:43
@LeeWoofenden Great quote! Many people just fight to fight and no responsibility
Nov 4, 2017 17:42
They are telling everyone to become more like Northe Europe,that is a stupid idea
