-Removed-Not what Jesus said or did is it? Jesus made it clear with comments and explinations on the laws which we are still under but now in general terms. If one loves their neighbor then that covars many laws at once.
He and the apostles still commented on some that we are still under according to those originally written down in the OT. Such as abstaining from blood....

Right....If your doctor told you to abstain from alcohol you think it would be ok to inject it into your veins? Really?

The point in which you'll never get is the Bible, God's own word said to ABSTAIN from blood with no exceptions at all mentioned then or for the future.
Even JEHOVAH'S son Jesus said this exact law which as usual you ignor.

Originally posted by galveston75Take another look at it. Isn't this a recommendation of the apostle Paul at the church council and not a direct command from God? I think we must take this in context just like Paul's recommendation concerning the women in a particular church or about marrying for men.
