In the Acts of the Apostles, it says: " we refrain from things sacrificed to idols, and blood and things strangled, and fornication. If you keep these things, you'll do fine. Take care of yourself. "(Acts 15:29)
It is a command that is well known: to refrain from eating blood.
We are entitled to ask: is this still true today?
The answer may surprise, but it is still relevant today! I have two examples, here they are:
- First, there is now a kind of movement formed in the USA which consists of young (and old) who dress, behave and live like vampires (yes, the vampire legends). Even though most of them only drink the false blood, there are those who drink it ... truth!
- The second is much more common: pudding. Yep! This is both repulsed by the young and certainly is delicious made with blood ... in fact it's blood we eat! Judge for yourself: " The sausage is a sausage made of a hose filled with blood and seasoned pork fat, typically, garlic, onion, parsley and orange flower water. ( Wikipedia) "
The subject may laugh but I know lots of people who love sausage and who will not stop drinking it. I was one too, before I realized this mistake. Eat pudding EAST eat and drink the blood! And the Bible is clear enough on this.
I hope that this short message you might wake up to this subject too little discussed, I'm afraid.
