Wow, thanks for all the posts guys. I am so proud of us that we could talk about it in such a way!!!! Kepp it up, it just gets more interesting each time I check back!!
This is what I thought, that all the laws weren't applicable after Jesus. But then I thought...if Jesus still did them why don't we?? Then I started researching and now I believe (well I'm pretty sure I believe, lol, still researching) that the laws such as food laws, festivals, and sabbath are still applicable. If you google keith hunt bible studies he has lots of articles about it. I like his site coz most of the time it seems like he's just stating the facts from the bible rather than certain denominations interpretations iykwim and lots of interesting facts!With food, I believe God told St Peter that it was not a sin to eat meant for what God has made Clean, let no man call Unclean (somewhere in Acts... need to read it again!)
I haven't read that but I do know in Zechariah 14:16 it talks about when Jesus comes back everyone being made to keep the feasts:I also thought that when Jesus comes again he will take His people to a place where the laws aren't needed; everything will begin anew.
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
It's great that churches actually teach about this stuff, I didn't know they did as I'd never heard about it until I started reading myself!
Thanks for the post hoobley, that was very interesting!!!!
