Was Jesus lieing when he pointed out the errors in the Bible?

Question

Jesus in Matthew 15 says that what you eat doesn't defile you. So, he's pointing out that there are errors. For example, Leviticus 11:9-12 says the eating of shrimp is an abomination. Now, we all know how bad Christians hate abominations, gay sex abomination evil wicked gays. But somehow we see Christians lineing up at Red Lobster and Long John Silvers not to protest but to eat shrimp.

Jesus pointed out the error in Leviticus 11:9-12 which is pretty clear God hates shrimp thats what the word abomination means it means hate,

so whoever wrote that, Moses I suppose, must have been in error. God really doesn't hate shrimp does he.

I think I'm going to go get some shrimp today and yummy yummy and protest heterosexual marriage (thats a joke people)

Answer 1

I am making chicken, oven roasted potatoes and if it weren't raining today, I would be in the backyard nude sunbathing. Pass the shrimp appetizer please!

Answer 2

Please read this chapter which explains this:

Jesus did not point out errors in the Bible, but Changed them by bringing the NEW COVENANT. We are no longer under the laws and rules and regulations of the Old Testament, we are now under the New Testament. Therefore Jesus CHANGED them, not saying they were wrong or evil, but only now they are Changed.

The Speed limit use to be 55, now it is 65, this does not mean the speed limit 55 was in error or it was a mistake, only that it has now been changed to 65. In the old testament eating with unwashed hands defiled a person ( it was a rule to be followed ) But Jesus Changed that rule.

You see the old testament was based on rules and regulations and laws to be followed, the new testament is a heart issue, not rules and regulations and laws.

Many more examples are given at:

of how and why we are no longer to obey the Old Testament but are now under the New Testament. Jesus did not point out errors of the Bible, but merely changed them, and not because they were in error either, but because the time was right for the New Covenant to come about. just as the speed limit above, it was changed to 65, not because 55 was wrong or in error, but because it was time to change it to 65.

In His Holy and Precious Name, Jesus Christ

Answer 3

Jesus wasn`t pointing out the errors of the Torah, He was saying that it isn`t immoral to eat certain things. God gave the food laws in the Old Testament to protect His people from disease, centuries before scientists discovered the bacteria that causes food poisoning.

Answer 4

Well not being there no one knows intention, but needless to say because a human being like Jesus of Nazareth was didn't agree with ancient writings and sought social change like many of us do even today that really can't be considered a lie.

Because the bible was put together in it's current form by a committee of human beings you get all sorts of wonderful inconsistencies in it. So what do you want to believe? Pick and choose.. because to believe every single word as it is written brings about hypocrisy.

Answer 5

I really dont care if Jesus said it was good or wasnt... I loves me some shrimp, and if god is using his time to judge us for eating shrimp then that would explain alot wouldnt it? Yeah I love shrimp.
I also think that masturbation is perfectly healthy. But thats another story... Love you Jim
I wish you well

Answer 6

I think I'm off to have a shrimp cocktail and contemplate the meaning of abomination.

Wait... I'm pretty sure abomination means a snow man...

Now for that shrimp....

Answer 7

You are taking that out of context. What Jesus was saying is it' s not what goes in your mouth that makes you impure or corrupt (like drinking something or eating sometihng) but what come out... such as cursing. He is not referencing food so much here as he is the concept. I am not Christian but I don't think people like to hear Jesus being called a Liar.

Answer 8

Again, Jim...

Your ignorance betrays you. You are again resorting to giving only partial information to try to illustrate a point. This makes you intellectually dishonest.

Jesus was not pointing out an error. Jesus was pointing out the hypocrisy of the Sadducees and Pharisees. Interesting that you would pick this scripture to use while trying to make your point, but I'm sure that the irony is lost on you.

Answer 9

anybody can discuss mistakes contained in the bible. It replaced into written by a human so that is weak to three mistakes. Take the teachings and consider them. in the journey that your wakeful has the same opinion then you could keep on with that practise or moral. a touch bit God and what to do and whats good is in everybody and they ought to maintain on with that innate present.

Answer 10

No, you don't understand the difference between living under law and under grace. Jesus fulfilled the law and we are now under grace. However sin is still sin and gay sex is still an abomination.

Answer 11

Jesus thought that Moses wrote the Pentateuch-modern biblical scholars know the differences between Genesis 1 and 2 make that impossible. Jesus never even knew who wrote the scripture that (allegedly) foretold his coming.
