Re: God hates bloody steaks!

What manner if ignorance is this? Rare steaks are godly in His sight.

I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean. Romans 14:14

There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man. Mark 7:15

Enjoy your shoe leather, Baptists.

Listen up, Beelzebub's humble servant. We don't take kindly to people who twist Scripture to make it sound internally contradictory, something that God's Word just cannot be.

Romanian steaks are awful. At least the killing the cow part is fun.

This is why liebral churches do so well, they twist scripture to fit what they want to hear. This is something that I definitely want to believe.

However, I sent an email to a Jewish Rabbi since nobody here was answering my question. Here is his response...

The reddish liquid that remains inside the meat is not considered blood; it is the meat's "juice," and is 100% kosher.

Could I please get a pastors ruling? Is hung meat properly bled?

Re: God hates bloody steaks!

In light of this news, I'm going to start chicken frying my filet mignon.

I'm going to take it and slice it in half and take a hammer to it, so the juices will melt away quickly. Then, I'm going to make a super spicy breading for my filet mignon.

Then, I'm going to make a heavy cream gravy to smear all over the top of my filet mignon.

MMMMM... MMMMM....MMMM!

Re: God hates bloody steaks!

Now that we're approaching barbecue season, we need to be careful, lest a seemingly innocent act should outrage the Almighty. I am talking, of course, about eating bloody steaks.

When Noah left the Ark, God gave him laws, including the following:

Genesis 9:4: But flesh with the life thereof, [which is] the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.

Since this law was given to Noah, we cannot ignore it as part of the old Jewish covenant. Instead, it applies to the descendants of Noah, i.e., to everyone.

In fact, it was reiterated during New Testament times and specifically indicated as applying to Gentiles by the command of the Holy Ghost:

Acts 15:19-20: Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God: But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and [from] blood.

Acts 15:28-29: For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

Acts 21:25: As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written [and] concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from [things] offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.

So be sure that you don't enrage the Holy Ghost by eating anything with blood in it. All meats sold in Freehold County grocery stores are certified to have had all the blood drained and not to come from animals that were strangled or sacrificed to idols.

I apologize for reopening this rather old thread, but there are some issues that I couldn't find addressed anywhere on the forum, and they are closely related to this topic.

In Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 God has provided us with detailed descriptions what we can and cannot eat, e.g.:

Leviticus 11:7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.

Leviticus 11:12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination to you.

Leviticus 11:29-30 mentions snails and tortoises to be unclean.

Deuteronomy 14 basically repeats the same rules, but then God also tells us how to dispose of unclean meat of an animal that is on the "to eat" list, but became unclean by dying of natural causes:

Deuteronomy 14:21 Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself: thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art a holy people unto the LORD thy God.

Praise the Lord, as He in His wisdom doesn't want us to waste anything!

Although most rules from the OT are still in effect, some were repealled by the New Testemant.

As I said, I'm addle brained today, so I can't think of them all off hand, but for this one, it's found in Acts.

Acts 10:10-16 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth: Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.

Now you'll notice that shellfish isn't included on that list, and people are a bit split on the subject. Personally I avoid shellfish just in case.

I agree with you on the shellfish thing. I always looked with suspicion at these little suckers. As for the things that died, do you think we could apply it to roadkill? You know, not eat it ourselves, but serve it to a stranger, or sell?

I always figured that roadkill was Gods way of providing for his scavenging animals. I've never really given it much thought.

[Persecuted Craig]

Re: God hates bloody steaks!

Apologies for reopening this old thread, but I too have questions concerning roadkill, specifically a fresh carcass I've found that has yet to be nibbled at by vultures or other beasts and is not in a field, either.

I'm instructed in Exodus 22:31

31 And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.

Is there any Brother or Sister that can give me guidance?

You know, this is the rule of thumb that I use regarding roadkill:

Deuteronomy 14:21. Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself: thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God.

This way, a dead animal does not go to waste, but I don't have to eat it.

Ah, yes. Selling carcasses to alien foreigners sounds like a fine idea.

When my family was going through very hard times in Bangkok, my mother found a freshly dead animal on the street (I can't remember what animal it was; It could have been one of the dancing women from the building down the road for all I know, which worries me greatly) and she fed it to my brothers and I nearly raw. I can remember thinking how delicious it was. Was that a sin, then? What if I end up in the same situation again, with an empty belly that aches so? I am not a rich man. Should I not eat road kill to fend off hunger?

Why in God's name can't you eat decent food like a burger or something?
