Regarding the food issue you posted this afternoon, sorry to break it to you and all Christians. After your Christmas lunch you'll have to ask God for forgiveness.
Firstly that conversation he was having with the Jews had nothing to do with food laws.
Secondly, what was considered food to the Israelites? Foods which God made clean.
So the foods considered unclean for health reason was not considered food.
Australians or Europeans would eat different items to a Chinese at the wet markets, let's say a bat.
Do you consider a bat as food, if your wife called you, ohh wotsie.....dinners ready,
What you cook for dinner baby!!!!! Bat.....wtf is that sh#t.
That which was allowed to eat would be considered food. Those restricted products would not have been considered food.
Jesus never came so we could get some pork on our fork.
That's why he said all foods clean whether you washed your hands or not.
Not one jot or tittle will change from the law.
Other races it dog, cat, snake, deep-fried cockroach, etc, etc. I don't consider that food....do you?
