Why pork is prohibited to jews and not to christian?

Question

Referring to: "Paul said the law was no longer necessary."
Why do christian listen to Paul?
I thought their God is Jesus?
Why not observe to what Jesus taught?
Why have to change the teaching and listen to Paul instead?

Answer 1

it is still forbidden to christians, but they don't obey...

instead they misinterpret the vision to peter in acts 10 & 11 that was intended to say "don't discriminate against non-jewish believers" to mean "eat whatever"... christians often fail to understand anything except the literal reading.

Answer 2

The reason GOD says we should not eat pork is because it is bad for our bodies. Just because we are saved by GRACE through JESUS doesn't mean we throw out the LAW. The LAW still shows us how we should live. Acts10:9 through 15 is talking about people not food. Continue reading Acts 10:27-29. Praise the LORD.

Answer 3

It is prohibited to christians but the followers of Paul think it is ok.
Jesus commanded they obey the law of Moses, but Paul said nevermind what Jesus said.

Answer 4

The law as a whole and especially cleanliness laws were shadows of the coming of Christ who did fulfill the law and made all things clean.

Edit Paul taught the word of God Christ is the word of God.

Jesus
Mark 7:15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.

He had more to say you should read it.

Answer 5

WITH the creation of the recent sheepfold of non secular Israel on the day of Pentecost in 33 C.E., the former sheepfold for the organic Jews below the Mosaic regulation covenant kicked the bucket as having served its objective. 3 and a 0.5 years later got here the conversion, baptism and spirit anointing of the Roman centurion Cornelius and his believing acquaintances and relatives at Caesarea. to that end the nonproselyted, uncircumcised Gentiles have been introduced into the sheepfold of which Jesus Christ is “the door.” (Acts, financial ruin 10) This fold encloses “the Israel of God,” Israelites in accordance to the spirit, or religious Israelites. would desire to that's pronounced of any of those—Jew or Gentile—that they “at the instant are not of this fold”—the fold accumulated in accordance to the recent covenant affiliation? particularly no longer!—Galatians 6:sixteen; John 10:sixteen.

Answer 6

In Acts chapter 10:15 the Lord changed those dietary laws

11 He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners.
12 It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles of the earth and birds of the air.
13 Then a voice told him, "Get up, Peter. Kill and eat."
14 "Surely not, Lord!" Peter replied. "I have never eaten anything impure or unclean."
15 The voice spoke to him a second time, "Do not call anything impure that God has made clean."

Answer 7

Acts 10:9 On the next day, as they were on their way and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop about the sixth hour to pray. 10 But he became hungry and was desiring to eat; but while they were making preparations, he fell into a trance; 11 and he saw the sky opened up, and an object like a great sheet coming down, lowered by four corners to the ground, 12 and there were in it all kinds of four-footed animals and crawling creatures of the earth and birds of the air. 13 A voice came to him, “Get up, Peter, kill and eat!” 14 But Peter said, “By no means, Lord, for I have never eaten anything unholy and unclean.” 15 Again a voice came to him a second time, “What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.” 16 This happened three times, and immediately the object was taken up into the sky.

Answer 8

ummm...because Jews believe God prohibited them from eating pork and Christians believe that God said it was okay.

Answer 9

Paul said the law was no longer necessary.

The Jewish laws of kashrut were established to wean man away from violence and to learn to abhor the sight of blood. The Jew must be taught to detest death, abhor blood, and recoil from unnecessarily hurting any of God's creatures. Love for sadistic pleasures must be utterly uprooted from the human heart. God is the Creator of life, and man is its guardian and protector.

Adam and Eve were commanded never to take the life of any animal, but to subsist on vegetation alone: "From all the trees of the Garden you may eat" (Gen. 2:16). A quandary arose after the flood, which decimated all living creatures, including plants and animas. Prior to that, the Almighty had never given man permission to consume animal flesh. Had God not permitted Noah and his family to partake of the animals, they would have perished. Moreover, since Noah had exerted strenuous efforts to save the animals as well as himself and his family, he was entitled to partake of their flesh in order to survive. God allowed Noah's descendants to eat meat as well, and since then there has been an acceptance of the human need to consume meat as a source of nutrition and sustenance.

The rules of kashrut are based on the belief that meat eating is different from eating vegetables and requires a great deal of sensitivity to animals. Man must be weaned off the callous indifference to taking life—any life. Rabbi Joseph Albo, the great Spanish mystic, wrote that Adam and Eve and their progeny were originally forbidden to eat meat because of the cruelty involved in killing animals. In fifteenth-century Spain, Don Isaac Abravanel, one of the greatest
biblical exegetes, endorsed the call for vegetarianism and taught that when the Messiah comes, everyone would return to this ideal state.

The founder of Christianity was insistent that "it is not what goes into the mouth that denies a person, but it is what comes out of the mouth that defiles- (Matt. 15:11). Judaism rejects this belief, stressing that man can indeed be defiled by absorbing the wrong foods Parents try to govern their children's television intake, convinced that violence and sex can have an adverse effect on the minds of their young. If this is true of mental material, why should physical
sustenance be any different? The undeniable fact is that if you eat poison it can kill you. Judaism simply expands on this by applying it also to spiritual poison.

Long ago, Judaism taught that what we eat has a direct effect on how we behave. Consuming the flesh of violent, predatory animals can bring out these same instincts in man. In a book on dreams published in 1990, I wrote of the effects of strong somatic stimuli on our mental processes. Studies show that people who eat hot and spicy foods often have violent dreams and nightmares, caused by toxins and the vapors of strong and acidic foods. The same has been proven true about thinking. The vapors arising from strong foods may impede or stimulate thought. Similarly, it has long been established that the effect of certain foods is an aphrodisiac. Why, then, should we not assume that foods affect our though processes?

We are what we eat. Therefore we must be careful of what we be come when we consume. The Torah forbade the consumption of vicious animals and those that did not care for their young. Likewise, Naism insists that the blood of an animal never be consumed – for the soul of the animal lies in the blood" (Deut. 12:23). The Almighty touted the negative effects that the consumption of animal meat could have on humans by restricting their consumption to passive, vegetarian beasts.
