(thumbs up). It is unclean. It is amazing that the outward Old Testament principles on diet still are "relevant" today. There are people who follow the OT biblical diet who testified of its impact on health. Some even made a theology of OT biblical diet. 

But you have to ask, in the grand scheme of the God's purpose in the New Testament, do outward eating really matters, even warranted a theology or a fight over it. People all over fight over "halal" or "clean" food religiously or theologically, which is, kinda childish ^^; But they do.

Rather one who should be concerned who they are becoming inwardly or who they are builded with, which influences their choices and being [i.e. who you "eat"].

It does not mean we don't contact all people but rather, the circle of people, who you are with influences your choices, preferences, altitude etc towards God's purpose, [the people you "eat"] or the world.

If you are with a group of people who loves healthy food or pursue money, for example, it won't be surprising that you will be influenced by them.

There is no magic. Man is a vessel, a container; We are created in a special way with a spirit, soul and body.  We have a body to contain food which we enjoy (duh). We have soul which we filled with music, entertainment, joy, desires, knowledge etc [food for the soul as they say ]. But, most importantly, we have a spirit which nothing in this world can fill but God. And He desires to spread from your spirit to your soul and eventually, the body. God desires, that the more man contact Him, the more he is filled by Him. But if we contact other things, pretty much we will filled by them.

Hablo un poco de espanol...espana?

hehe...

The Photo I used is actually our pre-Christmas practice.

Sophie U been there, the lighting are awesome n beautiful.

Well, we're having our Christmas service on 24hth which is technically today later at night at 9PM.

7.30-8.30PM, there's fellowship n Makan at concourse area.

You're welcome to come if you want to.

I have an Indian friend who's a christian. This guy works as a general worker, very simple guy.

You know what he told me?

He says that people who are leaders or well known in the Christian World gifted with the Holy Spirit don't need all that sort of tertiary qualification.

If anyone has ailment, these type of people just touch you and you will be healed. They are the ones who don't mind to get dirty cleaning up after old folks who can't take care of themselves.
He says he has more respect for these than those who has all kind of theology qualifications and preach very well.

I know where he's coming from and I agree.

So don't worry about them. After all Jesus says you'll know a tree by the fruits.

And yet there are Christians who looked down upon such Christians because they don't have status, higher education, etc....

I really don't understand such behaviour.

Sure no Christians is perfect, I get that.

No idea either. Is she refering to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphians?

Sophiera

lol, Wats that?

pehkay

Ah ... they don't believe in the Trinity. Sad.

Is there such a group here in Malaysia?

I wonder how is it that they can say Jesus has a fallen nature, needs to redeem himself and has sin when the Bible is so clear.
1 John 3:5 (NIV) - But you know that he appeared so that he might take away our sins. And in him is no sin.

1 Peter 2:22 (NIV) - "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth."

And this verse is the clearest.

2 Corinthians 5:21 (NIV) -  God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Reading problem or wat????

Sophiera You seen this video?

I'm more intrigue by this temple of Heaven in China


Very much similar to the way the Jews Sacrifice to God under the OT.
