Quote:So now all of the sudden, you’re telling me that Genesis 9 is restricting the people from eating other foods Yahuah (God) created. Yet in the passages above you’re telling me that God has given the people the right to eat anything because nothing that goes in the body defiles them. That makes no sense, it sounds good, but it does not harmonies with the truth, it’s an outright contradiction. Either they can eat whatever as you say they can through the release of the law through passages like Acts and Mark or they can’t through Gen 9.

At this point I don’t even know how to answer you because you’ve gone back and forth.
I'm sorry if I was confusing in my answer.In Genesis 9 the prohibition is against blood.This prohibition is also present in the Sinai Covenant but other foods are added to the prohibition.In the New Covenant the blood avoidance still remains but the other dietary commands given at Sinai removed.
I don't see why avoiding blood should be a contradiction of what Christ said about nothing that enters a man defiles him because the erason we are given for not eating blood is not that it makes us unclean or defiled but because the life is in the blood.It is a prohibition that seems to stand regardless of other commands pertaining to food.
You said that either they can eat what they like through the release of the Law or that they can't through Genesis 9 but why should it be all ro nothing? The release of the Law removes the dietary restrictions pertaining to clean and unclean.Hoever can God not now,in His New Covenant establish the dietary laws that he wishes? And if God wants to retain the blood prohibition that has been with us since the time of Genesis who are we to argue otherwise?
