Re: McMinnville pastor accused in suit of Defamati
But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
This is cultural and archaic. Contextually comparing this scripture to Corintians is not justified. But you probably do that from the pulpit. You violate at least the blood and strangled part of this scripture if you don't kill your own pork, beef or chicken.
Not only that it could contradict acts if your not careful.
All of "the list" can be found in the 10 commandments and might as well be repeated as such.
To compact this to the culture of Corinth is a classic justification for a learned conviction. Noticed I said learned.
Do what you want as a man and dictated to your family what you desire. But to put YOUR convictions or YOUR standards on someone else based on cultural, historical and archaic doctrine is heresy.
So glad Jesus looks on the heart instead of me in my underwear while typing this in my recliner. But I digress.
Love Jesus, Obey his commandments and I'll see you on the other side benihin
