I'm curious, does any one go to scripture for there dietary plan.
Carnaly and or spiritual?
Bible verses would be great.

Leviticus 11 .... Oops... I try to eat this way... Not always successful

Awe the kosher plan

I'm more of a Genesis 9:3 type.
Every thing that liveth shall be meat for you; Even as the green herb have I given you all things.

In the garden of eden, adam and eve only ate plants. Vegans like to cite that as "proof" that their diet is what god wants for us. They seem to ignore the fact that Jesus himself ate fish, and gave other people fish to eat.

X2

I may be mistaken but I believe someone has Jewish and gentile mixed up.

Gen 9 was post flood. 100s of years before the lavitical laws..
Even the Lord in Genesis 18 ate beef
This chapter is leading up to the distruction of Sadom.
This is a Chistophany, an appearance of the Lord in the old testament.
Genesis 18:8 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and. He stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.

Stoners justification, Lol.

Lol

There something to be said for the medicinal value of wine.
In 1 Timothy 5:23 Paul says to Timothy ( Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomachs sake and thine often infirmities.)
Timothy was a Nazarene, therefore he was forbidden to to drink wine.
Wine was served with water to help sanitize the water.
Timothy probably had stomach issues from bad water.

Everything in moderation

I don't think Timothy was a Nazarene, otherwise Paul wouldn't have suggested for Timothy to drink some wine for his stomach issues.

You ever try Ezekiel bread 4:9 I try and eat the food from the Bible.

No possums ........yuck!

Good point silky
On the other hand, if Timothy was not a Nazarene why would he neehd confirmation to use wine.
Wine was a staple for the Jewish peaple of that day.
Paul even said the circumcision of the flesh meant nothing.

Anyone doing a diet based off the Bible is one brainwashed individual!

Yes ,

A voice from heaven told Peter to kill and eat,

Sometimes being washed can be a good thing.

I try to eat non processed, natural foods 99% of the time. Biblical or not, I’m not sure. Maybe it could technically be.

“There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.”

With that said, I can’t help but think that eating healthy foods the way God created them (or as close to it as possible) is the best way to stay in good health. The processed foods and preservatives are numbing us and causing us to have to rely on pharmaceuticals which can alter our minds and bodies

Matthew 4:4

You guys are hopeless you can't fight about politics anymore so it's food and dieting.

I like your response.
Both carnal and spiritual

One of my favorites,
By every word of God.

Fighting? Whose fighting?

I hope we're not fighting rex.
The No politics does not realy effect me personally. I know where I stand.
Just interested in other's views on the subject of food in the bible.
Spiritually and Carnaly.
The seed swap got me to thinking.

Actually eating the way leviticus tells is better for me as ive had high cholesterol and plugged aorta for yrs. The cakes? Thats all me.

There was sure good reason for the dietary laws for Israel.
There future suvival may have depended on there strength and physical welfare.
Every man would be against them.
We have liberty in what we eat, thank the Lord.
I love my Bacon. She'll fish, and junk food accassionaly .
Knowing that my heath and longevity would probably be a little better without such.
But spiritually I like to dine on healthy things.

Sometimes being washed can be a good thing.

Eat what you think is " right" and I'll eat what I want.

As you should sir.

Just curious who you think is telling you what to eat on this thread?

Well, the title of this tread is a clue.?

Some orthodox Jews drink a lot of alcohol.

Looks like a question? And wanting opinions for a possible discussion?

bucksnbears
My point of this thread was not to try and influence any one diet plan, or certainly not tell any one how to eat.
I just returned from a small bible study. We had beaniweenies, with Kroger BBQ sauce 4 different desserts loaded with processed sugar and flour. And Kroger potato salad with chemicals half of with I can't pronounce the names.
I was just wondering what different views were from peaples biblical perspective.

If the WEF people have their way, we'll be doing John the Baptists diet. Probably wont be getting much of the honey though, at least not the real stuff.

I'm more of the "kill and eat" diet.

I wonder if he killed the locust before he ate.
Maybee the 70s fad of chocolate covered insects is on the horizon.

It wont be a fad. *german accent* you will eat ze bugs and you will like it"

I had some Vegans tell me that John the Baptist did not eat honey and locust that according to the Book of Essenes and the Gospel of the Ebionites it would have been illegal for him to have done so. Locust would have been meat and he couldn't go near anything dead let alone eat it. He could not have eaten honey because that would be stealing from the little bees that worked so hard to make it. They say John ate manna cakes from a plant which according to them is still in existence today.

Those people also made no distinction between Nazarite and Nazarene in a feeble attempt to prove Jesus did not drink wine and also did not eat fish and in His miracle of feeding the multitude he would not have killed the little fish (because he wasn't violent) but instead fed them with grapes and bread, lol.

I wonder if his leather clothes and Camel coat were foefoo?

I keep wondering why for some who think a topic is foolish they keep opening them?

Exact same question for the political threads.

Agree. Does anyone open every post? I only open those that interest me.

Hears some understanding that I have from Roman's 11 and 12 on this matter. This passage speaks of how to react to an adversary.

I believe this is a passage about edifying or purification.
Coals of fire are used to remove impurities from previous metals.

Also in the passover, the final plague of Egypt.
The passover Lamb was supposed to be roasted on coals of fire and eaten.
I believed this was representing baptism with fire as John the Baptist spoke of concerning Jesus in Matthew
Also representing purging of our sins.
The next passage is in Rom 11.
Paul speaks of more purging of an enemy.
This is what I believe he was leading up to in the previous passage I showed.

I do believe my previous post pertains to the subject at hand also
If thy enemy hunger.
Biblical food.

With the exception of Jesus, you'd be hard-pressed to name someone that followed that doctrine.

Yes rex.
You are correct,
This is why we need Jesus and to trust that his sacrifice is sufficient for us sinners.
We can only strive for the mark of living in his image.

I know people that have fed their enemies. I agree it's almost unheard of in this day and age.

Feeding in a biblical sense can of course be both physical and spiritual.
The very reason I started this thread was for the very things we are discussing.
Be not overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good.
This is the vary spiritual food I'm thinking of.
When it comes to us as trappers and outdoorsman, we have a comeratery.
A brotherhood so to speak. But the acuser would try and decvide us as a well meaning community of men.
And plant a seed of division between us.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 6:12.
It is darkness we all wrestle against.
We need the light.
Food for thought.

I don't think truer words have ever been spoken on here
