No. And here's why. The only law that is mentioned in scripture regarding blood is not to eat chickens that have been choked. The law said that the meat must be bled first, so that no one under the law eats meat with the blood in it. Back in those days, there was no refrigeration, and so they had to purify their meat in the best way they could. God wanted them to live long, and the law is a Schoolmaster. Scripture says in the Book of Genesis Chapter 9, Verse 4, says, "But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof shall ye not eat." If you read the beginning of that chapter, God is allowing man to eat meat, when he was supposed to eat only of the fruit of trees and God put "the fear" of man over the animals, fear meaning putting the animals into subjection under man, just as "the fear of the Lord" means to be subject to the Lord. But there it says that every moving animals, man can eat, as well as the herbs, but living animals aren't to be eaten. Which means, animals with life already in them shouldn't be consumed.
I just wanted to tell all of the few people that visit my blog... Make sure you know Who you're giving thanks to when you sit down this holiday. Have a good one!
It's been 18 wonderful years, and I've known my mother since the day I was removed from her womb, to be graphic. She's a great person, and a wonderful mother, but she has a poor taste in men. For the past 8 years, I've had to suffer living with a con artist that was only with the family to keep himself from being poor. He hated me. For 8 years. And for 8 years, I didn't talk to him. Now that the Lord has answer my prayers, and the man is in some drug rehab clinic, we're in the final battle of winning over him in court for the house, the car, and everything within them. The man is so evil that today he attempted to call my mum (we could tell it was him because he's the only one that would come up Anonymous on the caller ID, which is a satanic characteristic) and shortly after that, my sister and I started arguing, as if we were being tempted to argue. This simple man, with all of his sin, and his occult background, causes so much frustration, stress, and tention. We're nearly rid of him. The Lord crushes the enemies of His children, because the enemies of His children's enemies are at emnity with Him aswell. But it's been a constant battle to keep the house. She was in tears when he cut off the car insurance to keep her from driving, and in even greater tears when he cut off the phone to keep her daycare business from succeeding, which is the reason why she needs the house. But this man is after making us homeless. He uses us kids and pretends to say that he worked hard to get ownership of us, but both my sister and I have hated him in the past and foster the same feelings towards him now. We have no idea who he is, are glad he's gone, and don't ever want to see or hear about him again. Even after 8 years!
But with all the struggle and the fight for the roof over our heads, we've tended to forget to see past the roof. Tonight I came home with my younger sister and she noticed that the stars were there for once! Someone other than myself! It's because the days of the end are at hand. Christ taught the parable of the fig tree. When the leaves of the fig tree are tender and the fruit are ready, you know that summer is near, and the same signs will be given for the end of this age. Mazzaroth. Mazzaroth is a Hebrew word equivalent to Zodiac in English. But not the Zodiac that you're used to seeing-going to the Sunday newspaper and expecting to find something that almost perfectly matches up with the start of your day. But that's a satanic perversion of what 'Zodiac' is supposed to mean. It's an archaic word, but the word goes back to many different languages. Mazzaroth being the earliest.
It's for the degrees and positions of the stars and heavenly bodies according to the shifting of the earth and the turning of the sun. Every 2,000 years the sun moves one degree. The earth circles the sun, which circles the center of the galaxy, which circles the center of the universe. We're in constant movement. But God set it to be so since the beginning, to move in ordinances (Book of Jeremiah, and Job 38). In the Book of Job Chapter 38, Verse 32, God says, "Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in its season?" He then mentions several heavenly bodies. Arcturus, the Pleiades, and Orion among them. The Book of Psalms Chapter 147 Verse 4. God numbered them, and calls them all by name. Some of them appear to be stars, but actually are a cluster of stars in a heavenly arrangement. God's understanding is infinite. This is how God's people would know the Word, and read the Gospel before God gave Moses written scripture. Job is the earliest book in scripture, even older than Genesis. Yet, if you read Job, Job and his friends knew quite a bit. They knew because the Gospel is written in the sky, where no man's hands can tamper with it or touch it. If someone looks at the sky, they might make out a few constellations, but the rest of it is a strange scattering of stars, where they might make out a few patterns. But if you pray, God will send you the Holy Spirit, and just as you can understand scripture by the same Spirit, you can understand the Mazzaroth. God said that the heavens and the firmament are His handiwork, and that He put the stars there for signs, seasons, for days, and for years. Before God remade this second earth age, from Adam and Eve to now, the heavens were black, because God took back the stars that He made. They were there in the first age, but when God destroyed the first age, He took them away. This is seen by Jeremiah when the Holy Spirit transported Him to before the second age was created in the Book of Jeremiah Chapter 4, Verse 23. If you read on, Jeremiah says that the sky is black, meaning no stars. But God brought the stars back in this age, and set them in their perfect order, and to turn by heavenly ordinance, at His command. So since the beginning, the sky has prophecized the coming of Christ, the fulfilling of the purpose of the third age in revelations, the crucifixion, the fall of man, the defeat of the serpent, who caused the rebellion that lead to the end of the first age. It's been so, and God has already won, if you read the Book of Revelations. There is so much going on, and so much of God's power at work. That if you look at these small problems that we have. If you look at the house, you realize that it's really a big vanity. That these worries that we have would be like an infant trying to squeeze a block throw the slot that's shaped like a circle and so on. These things are too wonderful for us. And God is so perfect. We look at ourselves and we see that we're really vile. But God loves us, and this is where I worth comes in. The same wonderful God that created the heavens and the billions of stars across the night sky, which are hundreds of light years away, created a way for us to be arrayed in the same beauty and glory that His Christ is in, and loves us dearly. This is enough to bring someone to repentance. The very appearance of ourselves are evident of His great love for us, to be made to resemble Him. He has a father's love for us. It's truly amazing. To quote a good friend, "God is sooo good."
