“... walk around with lapel pins that say, ‘I don’t eat pork! And neither should you!’”
Bacon. Bacon. Bacon.
“All the while bragging that they keep the Law.”
I wish them all the luck in the world in their striving to keep what Israel couldn’t keep ... even as God was with them and they were (and still are) God’s chosen people upon all the nations of the world. If someone thinks they can do it when Israel couldn’t do it, they’re either being obtuse or they are woefully ignorant. They certainly don’t understand the cross or the gospel of grace.
That said, I plan to have myself a fat and juicy bacon cheeseburger today while thanking God for His grace. 😁
Gal 2:4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
mmm, BACON!
We have numerous American fast food joints here, like Burger King, McDonald’s, KFC, Pizza Hut, Jolibees, Goldilocks and Chow King. Just like home. 😀🤗👍
1 Peter 1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; 16Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
“Be holy for I am holy” is a DIRECT reference from Leviticus 11. Look it up in your bible reference guide. Don’t take my word for it.
Revelation 21:27And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
Leviticus 11 uses words like UNCLEAN, ABOMINATION, AND DEFILED.
Those who claim to be God’s chosen do not defile their bodies. But, I guess you just can’t help yourself, now can you?
