"The person who sins breaks God's law. Yes, sin is living against God's law." (1 John 3:4 NCV)
"'Of the animals that live in the sea or in a river, if the animal has fins and scales, you may eat it. But whatever lives in the sea or in a river and does not have fins and scales -- including the things that fill the water and all other things that live in it -- you should hate. You must not eat any meat from them or even touch their dead bodies, because you should hate them. You must hate any animal in the water that does not have fins and scales." (Leviticus 11:9-12 NCV)
I would say yes.
I also find it funny that Christians claim the laws pertaining to food were only for the Jews. Here is the first time food laws are given.
"Everything that moves, everything that is alive, is yours for food. Earlier I gave you the green plants, but now I give you everything for food. But you must not eat meat that still has blood in it, because blood gives life." (Genesis 9:3-4 NCV)
I have to ask, how may Jews were alive when Noah came off the ark? None, and that means this law had to be for everyone, not just Jews. In verse eight and nine, God says, "Then God said to Noah and his sons, "Now I am making my agreement with you and your people who will live after you." (Genesis 9:8-9 NCV) We are all descended from Noah, so this must be for all of us. But how many "Christians" go to Burger King or Wendy's and order a burger that was cooked with the blood still in it? It just shows how little many "Christians" read the Bible.

Dear Chris,
The only thing that we are not to eat as Christians is blood. Everything else is fine but we should always give the Lord "Thanks" for it.
We should always go to the Bible to search out answers to questions we may have. The Bible, of course, is God's word. When you sit down to read the Bible it is like sitting at the feet of Jesus and listening to Him. If you are not saved Chris, as you read ask the Lord to have mercy on you. The Bible tells us, "So then, faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God." "Faith" is a synonym for the Lord Jesus Christ because He is the only One who is faithful (Revelation). If we substitute in that verse we get, Christ cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. We are all spiritually dead before we are saved (Ephesians 2:1-3). We cannot hear the word of God, let alone obey it. If Christ saves a person, they are given ears to hear and eyes to see. When a person is saved they will obey the Lord (John 14:15). The child of God can know that they have been saved because they have an earnest and ongoing desire to do the will of God. However, do not become complacent-read 2 Corinthians 13:5.

No it is not a sin. The comandments regarding the proper food to eat that was given to the Hebrew from God through Moses was covered by the sacrifice in Jesus Christ. There were other comandments that were also covered, like working on the sabbath. We don't have to go to church on Sunday, only dedicate one day a week to rest and give to God. Very good question.

Technically confident ... yet that replaced into in different circumstances and those issues have been linked with particular reasons for no longer doing them. So do no longer worry. i think of even monks positioned on poly-cotton. Leviticus 19:27 reads "You shall no longer around off the edge-advance of your heads nor harm the sides of your beard." Leviticus 19:19 reads, "you're to maintain My statutes. You shall no longer breed together 2 varieties of your livestock; you shall no longer sow your field with 2 varieties of seed, nor positioned on a garment upon you of two varieties of cloth blended together." Leviticus 11:10 reads, "yet despite is interior the seas and interior the rivers that would not have fins and scales between each and all of the teeming existence of the water, and between each and all of the residing creatures that are interior the water, they're detestable issues to you." And shellfish is sweet in that wheelhouse.

The manner in which crab and lobster are prepared is problematic, given that they are typically tossed in a pot of boiling water to be scalded to death. There is no way to deny the cruelty of it. However, as sin is a religious term and religions are based chiefly upon irrationality and mythes, I'd have to say there is no sin in it unless it troubles your conscience.

There are Jewish dietary laws which say you shouldn't eat those things because they are considered unclean. Also pork. Never heard it was a sin in Christianity.

Muslims are not allowed to eat pork like the Jews that are Kosher.

I don` t think any kind of food is a sin to eat, no where in the bible says that you are not allowed to eat certain foods...eating is a circle of life the big ones eat the smaller ones...
