In (Acts 10) Peter had his dream that stated that pork is lawful to be consumed.
I mean how can he be sure that he (Peter) wasn't hallucinating?
How could they (Christians) be sure that it wasn't Satan who was trying to deceive him (Peter)?
One of the criteria of the Messiah:
#To do the Torah observance.
In the Torah it was said that pork shouldn't be consumed.
If Jesus told Peter in (Acts 10) that pork is OK to be consumed,this already show's that he did not do the Torah observance.
Thus,this prove that he is not the Messiah!!!

People,I won't care if it was Jesus himself had this dream.But the question is that His disciple had this dream, not him.
If Peter had this dream when Jesus was alive,and then ask for Jesus about the authencity of his dream,I wouldn't mind.
But the problem is he had his dream AFTER Jesus's death.And without Jesus conformation,he use his dream to set up one of the laws of Christianity.
How is that possible?

You have to remember when God first made the pig that is was clean and holy. It wasn't until the sin of Adam that animals became unclean. Of course, came the Law of Moses which said that certain animals were not lawful to eat. But you misunderstand, the Messiah also came back to restore man to his rightful relationship with God. That's why Jesus said I have not come to destroy the Law but to fulfill it. The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ fulfilled many ceremonial and observances held in the Law to the point they were set aside. For example, the sacrificing of lambs, bulls, and goats. Moreover, Christ has taken away the curse which came with the Law and ushered in grace for the believer in Christ. Now we are made holy and sanctified in Him through His Blood. Also, we can consecrate those things which are unholy. We live in a sinful world so those who are anointed of God walk in His power to restore, renew, and make holy anything which was sinful, including meats.

God used the dream to speak to Peter. It's something you don't understand, but God speaks to His sheep in various ways and His sheep know His voice when they hear it. Besides the freedom to eat pork is supported in other scripture concerning the New Covenant and the freedom therein.

Your ignorance, like that of so many before you, is like a continuous one-act play in theater of the absurd.

Being under grace and not law, the ceremonial laws (which the dietary laws are) are not necessary for the church.

What proof do you have that Peter did not have a dream?
