Opening and closing statements in forbidden meat

Image
What's obvious in forbidden meat are the opening and closing procreation verses in Genesis 9:1 and 9:7. Also, Genesis 9:2-6 are procreation related. But before going into the details, let us first know the scriptural procreation verses for animals and human beings. For animals: 15 God said to Noah, 16 “Go out of the boat with your wife, your sons, and their wives. 17 Take all the birds and animals out with you, so that they may reproduce and spread over all the earth.” 18 So Noah went out of the boat with his wife, his sons, and their wives. 19 All the animals and birds went out of the boat in groups of their own kind. (Genesis 8:15, TEV). In God's Word, is there any prohibition/condition pertaining to the act to procreate for animals and birds? None. For Human Beings: 9 God blessed Noah and his sons and said, “Have many children, so that your descendants will live all over the earth. 2 All the animals, birds, and fish will live in fear of you. They are all

Sex organ is the forbidden meat

Nowadays, seldom you could find a preacher teaching "oral sex" as forbidden "meat eating". Instead, you could find priests and preachers, who are fun of sex organs. At the same time, they are silent on the issue and some are allegedly forgiving and accommodating to homosexuals, lesbians and heterosexuals, who are also sexually "eating" the same organs. Consequently, y ou may have reasons to doubt on their sexuality and orientations. These doubts are based on Genesis 9:4 which states:  "4The one thing you must not eat is meat with blood still in it; I forbid this because the life is in the blood" (Today's English Version)  and the following premises, to wit: First premise - the reason for prohibiting "eating meat with blood still in it" is because "life is in the blood" and not because "blood is life" or because of "blood" in meat. Second premise -if you take out "life" in blood,

Circumstances in forbidden "meat eating"

What are the surrounding circumstances when forbidden meat was prohibited? This will confront truth seeking individual who desires to come up with logically valid interpretation concerning the verse on forbidden meat, to wit: 4The one thing you must not eat is meat with blood still in it; I forbid this because the life is in the blood.( Genesis 9:4 , TEV) Above verse was spoken to Noah and his sons after the flood, when their fear m ay be noted and the acknowledgement of the power of God was exhibited by acts of offering sacrifices to God. 13 When Noah was 601 years old, on the first day of the first month, the water was gone. Noah removed the covering of the boat, looked around, and saw that the ground was getting dry. 14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was completely dry. 15 God said to Noah, 16 “Go out of the boat with your wife, your sons, and their wives. 17 Take all the birds and animals out with you, so that they may reproduce and spr

Human Life in Forbidden Meat

Image
In the previous article entitled Forbidden Meat , it was asked whether not not the word "life" stated in Genesis 9:4 refers only to "human" life to the exclusion of "animal" life. For immediate reference, the verse is restated, to wit; 4The one thing you must not eat is meat with blood still in it. I forbid this because the life is in the blood.(Genesis 9:4, TEV) The question is important because life is presently understood to include animal life. Due to this orientation, most believers consider the forbidden "meat with blood still in it" as referring only to "any" animal meat to the technical exclusion of human meat due to ordinary expectation for preachers to believe that nobody will eat "human meat", even if "human blood" is no longer on it. The materiality of life in the interpretation of the verse is that when it refers only to "human" life then correspondingly, the meat and blood being stat

Forbidden meat

The statement related to forbidden meat is:" The one thing you must not eat is meat with blood still in it ."  Most persons focus on the literal meat that even children may eat, however, as will be presented in the series of articles, the meat that is being prohibited will unlikely be eaten by children but will be vigorously eaten by the adults. Book of Genesis verses related to forbidden meat were spoken to Noah after the flood. Cautiously,  when someone prohibits an act right after a very traumatic event, such as flood, the essence of the prohibition is more related to the root causes of the event.    Specifically, the verses will be discussed in relation to " same-sex marriage " , including " oral sex " , " eating uncooked meat ", sodomy and reproductive health law. The influence of United States through "same-sex marriage" shall also be discussed, including the Philippine reproductive health law and its repercu

Health and Lust

Philippine calamities are being attributed to health combinging it to lust by some moralist. But before deciding on going to or against two opposing forces related to calamities, it is necessary to consider the possibility of deceptions among the parties. F or example, in a recent pronouncement of Lipa Archbishop Ramon Arguelles, he blames the "ungodly" laws, e.g, Reproductive Health (RH) law, as a cause of Philippine disasters. Is he honestly correct? First premise: The subject of the blame are the recent Philippine calamities, such as, Cebu-Bohol earthquake and Yolanda typhoon last October 15, 2013 and November 8, 2013, respectively. Second premise : Reproductive Health Law was approved only last December 2012. Third premise : "Lust" is being promoted in the reproductive health law. Fourth premise : When Bohol-Cebu earthquake struck , alleged churches in Cebu City and Bohol were destroyed, consisting of 10 historic Roman Catholic Buildings . Some o

Legal Pornography: Only in the Philippines

Simultaneous multiple same-sex sexual relations was legalized by President Benigno Aquino III. This is inside Reproductive Health Law or R.A 10354, otherwise known as "“An Act Providing for National Policy on Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health”. Also, the law modified the traditional concept of parenthood due to its letter and spirit, which include persons and their multiple same-sex partners as parents. These are the leg al propositions. All Filipino lesbians , homosexuals , including sexual perverts and pornographers must therefore thank President Benigno Aquino III for this benefit. Because, the President had finally proven to them that they are his "boss" too. Therefore,instead of criticizing the President, they, including homosexual priests, should stop, as he had not only signed but also urgently made into law a health law,  purposely,  for the sake of their  "lust" , at the cost of taxing-paying Filipino public, inc
