USAallthewayOh no sir ,I am a son of God ,who knows His word just a little better it seems than you .
God says his Word does not change ,and I believe that ,so if I go by titles
that you seem to throw around ,that would make me a conservative ,
unwilling to change ,especially in matters of politics and religion .
But Liberals ,according to the dictionary ,are generous ,open minded ,open for change .
So calling me either name would not insult me ,(you would not be accurate ,but its ok ,I am called lots of other names too ,names don't scare me )
I am not a phoebe either ,that means to fear something ,and I only fear God .
I would much prefer to be called a liberal or a conservative ,right wing or left as opposed to a "Worker of iniquity " or "Stumbling Block " or "Luke Warm"
Or someone who uses Gods name in vain ,saying "God said " when God said nothing of the kind .
The only ones I see God actually tells them to kill themselves are stumbling blocks
People who lead His sheep to stray from the truth ,
He told them to tie a millstone around their necks and cast themselves into the ocean ,
and since you can't swim with a 1000 lb stone around your neck ,I think thats suicide .
I respect you have an opinion ,and I fully support you having one ,
But apparently she was serious with her question ,she wants to serve God ,
and the right answer would be since the flood God has allowed eating meat ,
But contrary to many who use Acts 10 to say now we can eat whatever ,they are also mislead ,that has nothing to do with food ,
He say's "God has shown me to call no man common or unclean " since it was against the law for Jews to mingle with non Jewish people .and he was in fact breaking a "Jewish Religious Law " Not Gods ,God told him to ignore it ,and he also sent 2 men ahead of him as witnesses (that requires some study of Jewish law to really understand ,but its not about food ,but many Christians say it is )
We can eat the things sanctified by the Word of God ,(things set apart by God )
and the only place we see that is at the Ark
The clean for food and sacrifice animals went on 7x7
The unclean 2x2 ,some say that was also for the Jews only ,We are created no different from a Jew ,that was not a religious law ,that was a precept of God ,so not only for the Jew ,but people have to work that out between them and God .
Some only eat vegetables ,some eat meat ,Paul said leave them alone .
They were afraid of eating meat sacrificed to idols .
Paul said if you know its clean ,then it doesn't matter ,but if your conscience tells you it wrong ,than don't do it ,don't let my liberty lead you to stumble ,you do what you think is right ,if you are doing it for God ,than you are blessed for it .
You can be circumcised ,but does that mean you are Gods ?
Or because you are not that God won't love you just the same ?
And that is why we have so many denominations and doctrines ,
People let men tell them what Gods word says ,instead of studying for themselves to show themselves approved .
And actually know what it means ,not the interpretation of men who did not study
and lead Gods sheep astray ,they are stumbling blocks .
On the "True Day of the Lord ",,that is not a place I want to be .
I personally would have give her a Biblical answer ,or kept my mouth shut ,
you know so I don't lead her astray and become a stumbling block .
Hopefully ,I just answered both of your questions ..
You can call me a liberal if that makes you feel good
that title means nothing to me nor does it hurt me
