What we can eat! I love eating! Most of these commands make perfect sense for health reasons. But what am I to take from a section like this – stay away from the shell fish?
Lev. 20:25 says you must make a distinction between clean and unclean animals and between unclean and clean birds…
We have to make distinctions in life don’t we? We do it every day. God is calling me (us) to use His Word, and since we have the Holy Spirit living in us, use the Holy Spirit, to discern between the things we should do, eat, watch, listen to etc… We all have the tendency to do what we have always done in spite of a current revelation of God. I know I have lived life like I am not in control of it. Like decisions are already made for me by???? God is saying to me, that I am the one responsible to control what I eat (which in the broader life concept includes everything and not just eating). I have the duty and therefore the power to control whether or not I become “spiritually contaminated”. It is mine to discern, with the help of the Spirit.
Give me discernment Lord and then give me the courage to deny myself when I know what to do.
