"....Wendell Jones (the famed archaeologist on whom the Indiana Jones movies were loosely based) even led his church to become Bnei Noach "removing the cross and the New Testament from the house of worship."

Meaning an entire Christian congregation was "led" to essentially give up Christianity?

Must be some kinda persuasive individual, or else an easily "led" flock of followers (or both).

"refrain from eating the limb of a living animal "

Now that's asking too much. No wonder the religion hasn't caught on.

The article doesn't say how many disagreed and left that church before the church in a sense, gave up being a church.

I don't remember those seven Noah laws given to Noah when I read my Bible. I remember the Rainbow covenant of Chapter 8 continuing into chapter 9. God promises not to flood the Earth with water nor "curse the ground for man's sake" and sets the seasons in motion(vs22). He commands them to be fruitful and multiply and that beasts of the Earth will fear man(9:1-2)

He says everything moving will be food for you("as the green herbs")9:3 Take that you VEGANS who attempt to distort scripture to justify your life-styles.

He says you can't eat an animal alive or with its blood still in the body, He says you can't murder another man. God says of the life of the beast that takes a mans life, "its lifeblood will be required of him" 9:5

He sets up the basic pattern of law that says "whoever sheds man's blood, By man shall his blood be shed" It that balance of justice from which all other laws seem to be derived...another words "eye for eye and tooth for tooth" 9:6-7 We later find in the NT a furhter Illustration of this balance of Justice..."Since by man came death,by man came also the resurrection of the dead. As in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive!"

Christ said he was the Fullfillment of the law, not the destroyer of it!

Praise God that he has given us the gift of himself thru Jesus Christ...The ruler of Heaven and Earth for-ever and Ever!
