The context was bread and the leaven of the Pharisees, not bread and fish.When Jesus Himself recalled that incident (Matthew 16:8-10) He makes no mention of fish at all, just loaves.

Paschal lamb, in Judaism, the lamb sacrificed at the first Passover, on the eve of the Exodus from Egypt, the most momentous event in Jewish history.
According to the story of the Passover (Exodus, chapter 12), the Jews marked their doorposts with the blood of the lamb, and this sign spared them from destruction.
In early Jewish history an unblemished year-old lamb sacrificed in the Temple of Jerusalem on the 14th of Nisan to commemorate the eve of the Exodus was later eaten by the family.
For those who had been impeded from visiting the Temple at the prescribed time, a second Passover festival was permitted a month later. In modern times Jews use a roasted shank bone at the seder (q.v.) meal as symbolic of the Paschal lamb. St. Paul, drawing a parallel with the sacrifice made by Jesus, referred to Christ as the Paschal lamb (I Corinthians 5:7); hence, the Christian view of Christ as the spotless Lamb of God who by his death freed mankind from the bonds of sin.
Jesus instituted the new symbols while they were eating the Passover meal, which included roast lamb. It is clear that the disciples expected that Jesus would eat of the Passover lamb as he had done in previous seasons. No one knows if he abstained on that last Passover that he kept. That a lamb was prepared as usual is certain, however.We were talking about Jesus, and the final Passover.
And you are lying. Nowhere in the bible does it say Jesus ate lamb. YOU are adding that to the text.
And btw, no, not all Jewish sects at that time partook in flesh eating and animal sacrifice. There were vegetarians, and there is historical evidence that James (Jesus' brother) and many of the disciples were vegetarian. Since the student is not greater than the Master, it is absurd to think that Jesus ate flesh....especially when it is clear He always has a heart for God's original design, and He was the only perfect, sinless human being who repeatedly taught MERCY.

What scriptural evidence do you have to support vegan/vegetarianism as God's perfect will for his people at this time? I have never perceived such a directive in all my years as a Christain and bible student.It was both a spiritual lesson and a recalling of an actual event that took place.
Why do you fight so hard for the "right" to maintain the violent status quo of this FALLEN world?
I might've asked you this before, but I don't remember you answering it so let me ask you again..... What should Christians aim for, God's perfect will or God's permissive will?
I think the Bible is poetry, law and stories that illustrate truth. The Jews were gifted storytellers who borrowed from the cultures around them .You didn't answer my question. Who is "they" in your post #37?
Thank you, but I don't need a copy-pasta (especially one where you didn't even credit the author) about bible history from someone who has stated many times that you don't even believe the bible is historically true.
He has acknowledged that this will be Mankind's future, but as a professing Christian, he wants to see how much he can get away with in this life. Just like the sinner who thinks he can wait until the end of his life and offer a death bed "repentance"It was both a spiritual lesson and a recalling of an actual event that took place.

As I've often stated, this world would be a wonderful place if everyone was like me. You need to be shooting your righteous slings and arrows at someone else..

You're the one who wants to pick fight -- even after admitting the pre flood diet and the diet when Jesus establishes the Kingdom won't include slaughtering animalsAs I've often stated, this world would be a wonderful place if everyone was like me. You need to be shooting your righteous slings and arrows at someone else.
How would you deal with the feral hogs that are rampaging many regions of the country, or other destructive invasive species? Are you aware that animals are manifestations of spirit beings, many of which are very malevolent? Would you cozy up to a T-Rex? God created animals clean and unclean and instructed us to eat only clean animals. If God designed our digestive systems as well as the animals he gave us to eat, what's the problem?Since it would take days, weeks or months to completely answer that question, for now I'll just give you the link to my YouTube channel.
And I'm sorry but I really don't want to spend my Saturday debating, especially with someone who I've been through all this stuff with MANY times before.
I might be back later tonight, but for now I'm gonna make like a tree....
Oh, and I should answer the question of this thread. TEMPLE. Never again a tomb!
I'm defending my position, not picking a fight.You're the one who wants to pick fight -- even after admitting the pre flood diet and the diet when Jesus establishes the Kingdom won't include slaughtering animals
The Christians who only want to see how much they can get away with are risking their eternal life when they play these games
We are to "work out our own salvation with fear and trembling". I'm not in fear of my eternal life because I eat chicken nuggets.You're the one who wants to pick fight -- even after admitting the pre flood diet and the diet when Jesus establishes the Kingdom won't include slaughtering animals

Is mercy necessary?
This pretty much set the stage for things until Christ returns.The world when animals no longer fear Man

We are in the 'church age', not the preflood or millennial period. Let's not live in the past, or get ahead of ourselves.
