“We see throughout scripture, God’s original diet was the best.”
Definitely not THROUGHOUT Scripture. References to Garden Of Eden and Daniel are O.T.
In the N.T., meat is fine, and Timothy goes so far as to say that telling others to abstain from meat is from Satan — a “doctrine of devils”.
1 Timothy 4:
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
In context, Paul is talking about meats offered to idols. Just as he was in Romans. We need to keep things in context. And it’s not a sin to eat clean meat which God identified.
I don’t throw out the Old Testament, it’s the only Bible Jesus ever had. And I know the differences between ceremonial laws, and the moral law and I know if a pig was dirty before the cross, it’s dirty after the cross.Those who consume swine will not enter heaven.......
Finally, go ahead and eat meat, clean meat, it’s not a sin. But when you get colon cancer, just dont complain to God. As Seventh day Adventist Trauma Surgeon Dr. Lorraine Day says....you can’t improve on God.
