Well, if he can take it as a joke, I think it's alright. Wanie404 always says bodo to almost everyone, I don't get angry when he/she says it to me.

but if the person you feel has taken offense then we just back off and stop lor.

Jesus says 1 thing very profound. If you let Love be the foundation of your life, all these rules laws does not matter.

The purpose of going to Church is to hear God speak through his word and to be encouraged, be blessed and be whole as how God wants you have life.

Going to Church does not earn you any marks in heaven. lol. Neither it is a requirement to for completeness to be a Christian. But it does help when we go to Church.

As long you have not given up believing in Christ, you're still his children.

If you can't attend church, you can always opt for online service? some church do offer live streaming for their service almost every week.

I agree with Pehkay, it is symbolic but it may also not be the reason of hygiene...though of course this is how we concluded though not recorded in the Bible as the reason.

Do you remember, there's a story of where God send Ravens to Feed the Prophet Elijah? (1 Kings 17:6)

How clean is that? I mean bread in the mouth of Raven and pass on to Human mouth? And Yet God fed Elijah that way. as Far as I understand birds, they have very viscous saliva.

Butchering is a different beast than just contact with saliva though. It involves touch, blood contact, and assorted other innards.

There's a warning that you should wear gloves when you butcher a wild rabbit. Because 1 out of 1000 chance you can kena a pretty nasty infection that lingers for months. It's like a rash, but it's a bacterial infection.

I collectively lump in Church culture and Church tradition to be almost the same thing.

For example, some Christians refuse to worship God in a building that doesn't look like a Church.

or that

Christian must have a certain kind of look and clothing or should only listen to hymns, modern contemporary are the works of the devil.  rolleyes.gif
Because of Church traditions and culture, some Christians are willing to go as far as calling Hillsong Worship as the Babylonian Whore.
And this coming from Christians.

I know there's a American Chinese Pastor who wear Flip Flop on purpose and preach every Sunday just to prove this point.
The Problem with this is that it Hinders the Spirit of God to reach out to the Lost.
I'm willing to bet with you, if a Prostitute with Low Mini Skirt walks into a Tradition Church, All Eyes would be open wide in contempt and the feeling of uncomfortable and first reaction is to escort her out to stop from distracting Sunday Service when the Church SHOULD BE reaching out to them.

I seriously feel the Catholics and Some Protestant Church have this self righteous problem.

Sheesh. Christians have been judging since Biblical times. No surprise there.

Ah, same goes to the aunties that's in my Malaysian church before. My skirt was just knee length high and yet it deemed as "too sexy."

Go figure.

To each their own, like they said 'prevention is better than cure'
Yeah, they follow their Kosher diet seriously even when it comes to wine which they make it themselves.

I have not personally encountered or have Jewish friends so I based this on what I learned in college and facts.

Well, I have personally have some Jewish friends who are both strict and not so strict about Kosher diet.... rolleyes.gif

QUOTE(Deadlocks @ Dec 4 2015, 10:25 AM)
I wouldn't comment further on your friends, because they're yours not mine. Just don't be harsh on them, because if they want to be assimilated, that's fine, it's not wrong.

If you fascinated with a specific accent, why not? It is normal when people find it objectively weird at first, but why would it be pretentious if yo love that accent and wishes to speak it? Is there a law or rule in stone that says you're not allowed to?

And if you have read my points carefully, it is common to feel fake at first because you're either new to the accent or language, but if you love saying it, pretentious isn't really the word if all you do are stopping people from doing what they love to do.

It's fake not because one doesn't keep it real. It's because people cannot accept that a person is capable of speaking many different accents and languages at the same time.

If anyone kept it real, it is your friends who can speak more than 1 languages, and including those who can speak in more than 1 accent.
*
That's right, because they are my friends, we know each other well. I was never harsh nor judgemental. What gave you the idea? hmm.gif

Of course there's no such laws. People just looked at you weird that's all.

How is it not pretentious when people are faking their accents? brows.gif

I mean I get it if they acquire those "accents" over a period of time. One does not suddenly talk in a British accent after a few hours, let alone days.

Well, my friends does speak more than 1 language. BM and English. And English with an American accent. brows.gif

Keeping it real indeed. rolleyes.gif

Is Cantonese and Hokkien considered as language? I think its dialect right?

I believe what God says about prayers. You can pray to God to sanctify all your food and drinks.

Don't do it ritualistically. Do it because you know God loves you and would want the best health there is for your life.

Next time, tell them this.

Jesus didn't mind a prostitute anoint and touch him with perfume and hair.

Tell them in that day and age how prostitute dress. If they think it's sack cloth, how gravely mistaken they are.

Whoa, this is the first time I've heard about the symbolic significance of forbidden food.

Most of the time I hear it's because they're unsanitary. Which is true: those food sources are dangerous to be eaten especially in those times. Wild non-cud chewing animals can have pretty bad parasites. Mollusks are filters and the water quality of accessible places, really kotor. Frogs and other amphibians may eat toxic insects.

Carrion eaters, 'nuff said. They're the DBKL of nature. Sure a health hazard.

(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. sweat.gif

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 biggrin.gif]. 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.

The things with posts/websites/videos like these, they do it for the shock factor.

Who/How did you manage to find the symbolism? This is really my first time hearing all of these. Very enlightening.

I see, I have yet to know Jewish people.

They're both dialects that are not official languages but commonly used daily languages. Get what I mean?

I'm not bothered la these day. laugh.gif

If our Faith depends on what people say rather than what God says and how we apply what God says to know the truth, it only means our focus is not right.

Listen guys. When you have tasted the Lord..all these you know for sure are Counterfeits.

I'm just giving you some tips here.

But if really anyone want me or either pehkay to debunk whatever that is said, maybe somebody can give a brief summary....
