I’m just telling you what it says. Argue with the Bible, not me.

15 The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.”

Now my friend. We know that Yeshua didn't tell the Apostles it was O.K. now to eat buzzards, swine and shrimp because we never see Him do that. Yahweh never says it in scripture as well....but you insist that the Spirit told Peter these animals were no longer unclean (verse 15).

Do I have your story right?

O.K. Let's go see John again. [Revelation 18:2] And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

Here's the Greek: kai ekraxen en iscui fwnh megalh legwn epesen epesen babulwn h megalh kai egeneto katoikhthrion daimonwn kai fulakh pantoV pneumatoV akaqartou kai fulakh pantoV orneou akaqartou kai memishmenou

#169. akathartos (ak-ath'-ar-tos)impure (ceremonially, morally (lewd) or specially, (demonic)) foul, unclean.

Now let's take a look at [Leviticus 11] from the Greek Septuagint:

1 kai elalhsen kurios pros mwushn kai aarwn legwn 2 lalhsate tois uiois israhl legontes tauta ta kthnh a fagesqe apo pantwn twn kthnwn twn epi ths ghs 3 pan kthnos dichloun oplhn kai onucisthras onucizon duo chlwn kai anagon mhrukismon en tois kthnesin tauta fagesqe 4 plhn apo toutwn ou fagesqe apo twn anagontwn mhrukismon kai apo twn dichlountwn tas oplas kai onucizontwn onucisthras ton kamhlon oti anagei mhrukismon touto oplhn de ou dichlei akaqarton touto umin 5 kai ton dasupoda oti anagei mhrukismon touto kai oplhn ou dichlei akaqarton touto umin 6 kai ton coirogrullion oti anagei mhrukismon touto kai oplhn ou dichlei akaqarton touto umin 7 kai ton un oti dichlei oplhn touto kai onucizei onucas oplhs kai touto ouk anagei mhrukismon akaqarton touto umin

Here's the English for the first seven verses:

1And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them, 2Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth. 3Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat. 4Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. 5And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. 6And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. 7And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.

Come let us reason together. Why would the spirit inspire John (60 years later) to write this word (the same word he inspired Moses to write) if he had told Peter that these animals were no longer unclean?

Here is the eighth verse: 8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.

Nothing changed from the Old Testament to the New regarding the Dietary Laws. Only the traditions of men changed!
