Context, metmom! You're making a category mistake.

The passage from Acts is talking about the consumption of animals: sacrificed animals, strangled animals, and animal blood. It makes no reference to the Blood of Christ.

Nor does it even remotely suggest that Christ's blood is filthy like the blood of a sacrificed animal.

If it had, the Apostle Paul would not have spoken so unmistakably to the Corinthians about the faithful receiving the communion in "the blood of Christ."

Context is that Jesus said this at the end of His discourse.....

John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
