Would you then eat something offered to idols? The Holy Spirit did not contradict Himself. Blood is still off the menu per instruction of the Holy Spirit.

1 Timothy 4:3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats {bróma}, 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.

broma
definition: food

Blood was never considered a food either in the Old Testament or New Testament. Prohibited by God in both the Old Testament and the New Testament.

What was that you said about reading scripture and comprehension again?

There is a critical difference between your understanding of Timothy 4:3 and mine. To me it appears, God is saying that ANYTHING, when taken with prayer and thanksgiving, can be eaten.
