Stop Living In Sin!

All over-eaters are lost as two boys kissing!

Re: Stop Living In Sin!

Prov. 23:19-21
19 Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thine heart in the way.
20 Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:
21 For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags.

Re: Stop Living In Sin!

Prov. 23:1-3
1 When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what is before thee:
2 And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite.
3 Be not desirous of his dainties: for they are deceitful meat.

YIKES! Strong words here - put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite!

Quote:

"These you may eat of all that are in the water: whatever in the water has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers; that you may eat. But all in the seas or in the rivers that do not have fins and scales, all that move in the water or any living thing which is in the water, they are an abomination to you. They shall be an abomination to you; you shall not eat their flesh, but you shall regard their carcasses as an abomination. Whatever in the water does not have fins or scales; that shall be an abomination to you."

a. These you may eat of all that are in the water: The rule again was simple: Any water creature having both fins and scales was kosher and could be eaten.

b. Whatever in the water has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers; that you may eat: On this principle, most fishes were considered clean - except a fish like the catfish, which has no scales. Shellfish would be unclean, because clams, crabs, oysters, and lobster all do not have fins and scales.

Abomination as in Duet. 22:5?

Just to stir the pot though, it says "abomination to you"... whereas in Duet. 22:5, it says "abomination to the Lord". Regardless of the wording, an abomination should still be an abomination....... shouldn't it?

Re: Stop Living In Sin!

Speaking of living in sin I have lost track of your church / spiritual journey. The last I recall you had gone back to a UPC church. Are you still there and thus not living in sin?
