“What things God made clean, you do not make common.” 

 

Have you had your cage rattled lately?  Do you want to swell with righteous indignation?  Is Yahusha a liar?  Is He confused?  Does Yahuah have a double standard?  Is He double minded?  Or is He the King, the GOD? Do you obey Him?  When His Words are plain, do you choose to hyper-spiritualize those Words rather than to submit to them?  At what cost to your relationship with Him?

Do you have faith like a child?

Let the Children Come to Me

Mar 10:13  And they brought children to Him, that He might touch them. But the disciples rebuked those carrying them.
Mar 10:14-15  But seeing, Jesus was indignant. And He said to them, “Allow the children to come to Me, and do not hinder them. For of such is the kingdom of God.  Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a child may not enter into it, never.

Yahusha Teaches That Nothing We Eat Or Hear Or See Can Defile Us

“And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

Mark 7:14  And calling all the crowd near, He said to them, All hear Me and understand.

Mar 7:15  “There is nothing from outside the man, having entered into him, which is able to defile him. But the things going out from him, those are the things defiling the man. 

Mar 7:16  If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.
Mar 7:17  And when He entered into a house from the crowd, His disciples questioned Him about the parable.

Mar 7:18  And He said to them, Are you also so undiscerning? Do you not perceive that all which enters from the outside into the man is not able to defile him? “

Mar 7:19  “This is because it does not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and goes out into the waste-bowl, purging all the foods. 
Mar 7:20  And He said “That passing out of the man, that is the thing which defiles the man.”

Mar 7:21-23  “For from within, out of the heart of men, pass out the evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, greedy desires, iniquities, deceit, lustful desires, a wicked eye, blasphemy, pride, recklessness.  All these evil things pass out from within and defile the man.” 

The Adulteress

John 8:3  And the scribes and the Pharisees brought to Yahusha a woman having been taken in adultery. And standing her in the middle, Joh 8:4  they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman was taken in the very act, committing adultery.
Joh 8:5  And in the Law, Moses commanded that such should be stoned. You, then, what do You say? (Moses did NOT say this.  YAHUAH did. – Lev 20:10  “And the man that breaks wedlock with another man’s woman, even he that breaks wedlock with his neighbor’s woman, the adulterer and adulteress shall surely be put to death.” )

Joh 8:6  But they said this, tempting Him, that they may have reason to accuse Him. But bending down, Yahusha wrote with the finger in the earth, appearing not to hear.
Joh 8:7  But as they continued questioning Him, bending back up, He said to them, “The one among you without sin, let him cast the first stone at her.”
Joh 8:8  And bending down again, He wrote in the earth.
Joh 8:9  But hearing, and being convicted by the conscience, they went out one by one, beginning from the older ones, until the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the middle.
Joh 8:10  And Jesus bending back up, and having seen no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those, the accusers of you? Did not one give judgment against you?” 
Joh 8:11  And she said, “No one, Lord”. And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I judge you. Go, and sin no more.”

I Am the Light of the World

John 8:12  Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world. The one following Me will in no way walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life. 
Joh 8:13  Then the Pharisees said to Him, You witnessed concerning Yourself; Your witness is not true.
Joh 8:14  Jesus answered and said to them, “Even if I witness concerning Myself, My witness is true; for I know from where I came, and where I go. But you do not know from where I came, and where I go. 
Joh 8:15  You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
Joh 8:16  But even if I judge, My judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent Me. 

All Animals Made Clean Three Times – Peter

Act 10:9  And on the morrow, these passing along on the road, and drawing near to the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray about the sixth hour.
Act 10:10  And he became hungry and wished to taste food. But as they were preparing, an ecstasy fell on him.
Act 10:11  And he saw the heaven being opened and a certain vessel like a great sheet coming down on him, being bound by four corners, and let down onto the earth;

Act 10:12  in which were all the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the heaven. 
Act 10:13  And a voice came to him, “Rise up, Peter, slay and eat.” 

Act 10:14  But Peter said, “Not at all, Lord, because I never did eat anything common or unclean.”
Act 10:15  And again a voice came to him a second time, “What things God made clean, you do not make common.” 
Act 10:16  And this happened three times, and the vessel was taken up into the heaven again.

Act 10:17  And while Peter doubted in himselfwhat this vision which he had seenshould mean, even behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius stood on the porch asking about the house of Simon.
Act 10:18  And calling out, they inquired if Simon being surnamed Peter is lodged here.
Act 10:19  And as Peter pondered concerning the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men are seeking you.
Act 10:20  But rising up, go down and go with them, not discriminating, because I have sent them.”
Act 10:21  And going down to the men, the ones sent from Cornelius to him, Peter said, “Behold, I am the one whom you seek. What is the cause for which you are here?
Act 10:22  And they said, “Cornelius, a centurion, a just man and one fearing God, and being testified to by all the nation of the Jews, was divinely warned by a holy angel to call you to his house and to hear words from you.
Act 10:23  Then calling them in, Peter lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went out with them. And some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
Act 10:24  And on the morrow they entered Caesarea. And Cornelius was awaiting them, having called together his relatives and his intimate friends.
Act 10:25  And as Peter was coming in, meeting him, Cornelius fell at his feet and worshiped.
Act 10:26  But Peter lifted him up, saying, Stand up! I myself am also a man.
Act 10:27  And talking with him, he went in and found many having come together.
Act 10:28  And he said to them, You know how unlawful it is for a man, a Jew, to unite with or to come near to one of another race. Yet God showed to me not to call a man common or unclean.

Peter left Cornelius knowing that Yahuah did in fact command Peter to eat whatever was placed in front of him.  He would likely never require “clean” food again, because Yahuah commanded that he eat all foods.   To deny Yahuah’s command would place Peter right back into the situation when he said he would never betray Yahusha.  Peter had to live with his failure for life.  He would absolutely not rebuke Yahuah and refuse to eat traditionally unclean food.  So I wonder what Paul said to Peter about eating unclean in front of the Jews?  Paul, being a “Pharisee of Pharisee” and like Peter, personally hand-selected by Yahusha Himself.

Additionally, Yahuah said “What THINGS Elohim made clean, you do not make unclean…

Act 10:15  And again a voice came to him a second time, “What things God made clean, you do not make common.” 

Note the plural “things”.  People are not “things”.  Snakes, frogs, wolves, pigs and creeping things… “things”.

Act 10:12  in which were all the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the heaven. 

Consider that Yahuah specifically commanded Peter to kill and eat the food Yahuah placed in front of Peter.  “Kill and eat”.  Peter didn’t kill and eat Cornelius.  He taught Cornelius.   But Peter doubted himself, didn’t he?  Peter doubted the command of Yahuah, given three times, just as he rejected Yahusha three times before the rooster crowed twice.

So I ask you – Did Yahuah command Peter to kill and eat, or did He command that Peter go to the gentiles, seeing as Paul was already doing that very thing? 

Do Not Cause Another to Stumble – Paul

Rom 14:13  Let us not therefore judge one another anymore: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way.

Rom 14:14  I know, and am persuaded by Adonai Yahusha, that there is nothing unclean of itself:  but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean”.

Rom 14:15  But if your brother be grieved with your food, now walk you not charitably. Destroy not him with your meat, for whom Mashiach died.
Rom 14:16  Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
Rom 14:17  For the Kingdom of Elohiym is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Ruach Ha’Qodesh.
Rom 14:18  For he that in these things serves Mashiach is acceptable to Elohiym, and approved of men.

Rom 14:19  Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.
Rom 14:20  For food destroys not the work of Elohiym. All things indeedare clean, but they are evilfor the man who eats and gives offense

Rom 14:21  It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor anything whereby your brother stumbles, or is offended, or is made weak. 

Rom 14:22  Have you faith? Have it to yourself before Elohiym. Happy is he who condemns not himself in that thing which he allows.
Rom 14:23  And he who doubts is damned if he eat, because he eats not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.


This is awesome.  Such a refined teaching.  All food is indeed made clean.  Everything in the “sheet” that Yahuah lowered before Peter when Peter was hungry is permitted.  The only sin in eating formerly unclean food is this: if you eat it in front of anyone who is spiritually offended by by you eating it, then you sin.  If your companion is not offended spiritually by you eating what your companion considers unclean, then you do not sin by eating it.

Best example – eating a ham sandwich in front of a dedicated Muslim.  Don’t do it.  But obviously eating that ham sandwich with anyone who is not offended by your choice is permitted and plainly taught in the Words of Yahusha, Cephas  and Sha`ul.

Hi Jerry I do not know everything, but will do all I am commanded to do .I was reading John 11 and came across two words in verse 35. They were” YAHUSHA wept”.

Great comments, all. I have seen these for the first time today, and am delighted for all of them. It will take me a full day to respond to them, and wow am I grateful for your comments, all. My position is unchanged in that “Mar 7:15  “There is nothing from outside the man, having entered into him, which is able to defile him. But the things going out from him, those are the things defiling the man.  defile verb (used with object), de·filed, de·fil·ing. to make foul, dirty, or unclean; pollute; taint; debase. to make impure for ceremonial use; desecrate. to sully, as a person’s reputation. Archaic. to violate the chastity of. This is the new wine in the new wineskin. It is the presence or the manifestation of Yahusha in all who obey His commands. If my savior states plainly that nothing I eat, drink, see or hear defiles me, then nothing I eat, drink, see or hear will make me impure in any way. These are the words of He whom we claim… Read more »

Hi Jerry, I checked my Restoration scriptures 7th edition. Acts 10. Unclean foods are not considered to be food according to Yahuahs commands. In context as seen later ,Yahuah was not reversing the eternal laws of keeping kosher, bit was showing Peter that Israels exiles were about to return in an unclean state or condition.As such, his un kosher/unclean attitude towards them had to. Change, or they would not. be received back into the commonwealth.The vision is well timed as Cornelius the non Jew, is about to seek his rightful Place among the people of Israel.The “kill” and”eat” part would soon be understood as Yahuah showing Peter that all men who were willing, would soon be considered clean, regardless of whether,or not they were Jewish. If Yahuah was reversing the kosher food laws, then why did Peter not know it and why was he confused and not sure, since certain groupsclaim that this was exactly what was being done here The voice of Yahuah came three times, one for each of the three arriving men.… Read more »

Why do you use The Name, YaHUsHa, which is correct with the antimessiah, J-e-s-u-s? These 2 are 2 completely different men. They ARE NOT one in the same. I realize we were all indoctrinated into the ‘j’ name and Father winked at our ignorance, but now commands all men to repent (which means CHANGE) (Ma’Asei {Acts} 17:30-31). If you say it is to reach those in the world, well since 2009/2010, when the 2,730 year old curse was lifted, most know The Names YaHUaH & YaHUsHa, though still REFUSE to acknowledge this as their hearts DO NOT love The Truth. It is IMPERATIVE that His children NOT have the names of other mighty ones (g-o-ds) found upon their lips and this is commanded several times in Scripture (Shemoth {Exo-Hellenized names most are familiar with} 23:13/ 20:3/ 23:24, 32-33/ Tehillim {Psa} 16:4/ YaHUsHua {Josh} 23:7-8, 16/ …) just to name a few. Just curious. As His children we will speak differently, walk differently, eat differently, live differently….than those in the world. We are after all a… Read more »

The interviewee’s name is probably Greg Rinchich. He seems most credible to me. I am glad he has found Yahusha through Our Heavenly Father’s grace:

Jerry, I just figured LT Colonel Greg Rinchich could be smartly disguised disinformation or mixed with half-truths. Maybe he has been compromised in some way we cannot scrutinize. Besides the quality of his narrations I find him likable and truthful though….who knows ? https://rumble.com/v204to6-area-51-security-battles-giants.html In this interview Mr. Rinchich is talking about Mars missions…. not compatible with our domed earth I suppose. What do you think about it, dear Jerry?

I hope you are doing fine.

Dear Jerry, everyone of us who loves you and the hard work you invest into your great websites knows truly well how seriously YOU take HIS instruction within Torah!

Your reasoning is tight and based on the new wine in new skins as Our Lord and Teacher Yahusha himself has stated written on Mark 2:22.

You are trying to receive confirmation from us regarding the remnants of doubt within your heart.
I think you already have figured it out, my brother….a ham sandwich should be eaten with as much respect for the pigs than Our Creator has put into creating these creatures.
I myself however, out of care for our animals, prefer always to combine the wisdom about kosher food from the Torah with my sorrow over animal ”well-fare” within the meat industry.

Here’s a disturbing interview I would like your opinion on…https://rumble.com/v1bzhtr-area-51dulce-ex-sniper-talks-about-greys-reptilians-clones-demons-holograms.html

Thank you for your swift answer, Jerry !

Here is another documentary for you corroborating the ”underground theme” of the evil serpent. https://www.bitchute.com/video/sde0MHIHSb8e/

Interestingly, in the strongly popular movie ”Matrix” and its successors the city of the rebellious ”good guys” against the machine overlords is called ”Zion” and it is situated deep inside the earth nearer to its burning hot core where it is warm and safe….

The pope knows the devil lurks in the details –though in plain sight for all to see and for us little resistant sheep to hear, aka to ob-eye, inside our hopefully ever more righteous growing hearts through Yahushas merciful working as payment sacrifice out of His and Our Heavenly Fathers love due to our unrighteous deeds.

Shalom Jerry, Just letting you know I am moving today. The move was planned, but the timing was suddenly moved up making a very tight window. It is on an isolated mountain in NH, but there is a body of believers around. I’m thrilled, but I can barely keep up. This post is something I would need to put time into. I eat only clean food. Once settled in, I may have time. Thank you so much for your posts. Halleluyah! Shalom, Kathleen

Let me be your teacher by Yahuah’s grace just this one time Jerry:

there is no logical argumentation whatsoever which is able to deepen our understanding of His (partly mysterious) ways.

There is only trust and living by faith alone, especially when thing’s getting hot around and within us little humans. No time to think sharply then, only fighting like we have shown Him in our daily prayers.

Think about brushing your teeth. Once in a while, there is no beneficial effect.
Doing it constantly however will certainly improve your dental health … whereas this accumulative effect mostly eludes our direct cognition.

Pray and do your daily work, brother. You know ENOUGH.
So if you’re stuck with some MRE’s containing pork or something worse😊, for God’s sake go ahead and eat them to refuel.
I love you and thank you for your unique help, Jerry ❤️

As an addendum to my first post, Jerry: I bought some French MREs (https://www.citysignal.com/whats-in-a-french-mre/) off of Ebay as an emergency food supply. Due to limited availability for pork-free portions I decided to also buy those ones containing pork. My reasoning concerning clean eating is such: Every time I have the choice between consuming clean meat or pork, shellfish etc. I will choose clean, kosher food out of respect for keeping His commands. It’s a decision between me and Him. I think animal protection for those creatures which have been raised to live and die for us as our ”food sources” represents also a truly important case of worship toward Him who has created the food chains on our fallen earth where (unfortunately) one animal kills and feeds on other animal for survival. Therefore, I try putting in some care to consider eating clean foods on the one side (etc. preferably beef or poultry over pork and shellfish) and on the other side if there is organically grown pork meat available vs. clean meat, which has… Read more »

“So my self-righteous friends consider themselves above Paul, that they qualify to be Pauls’ master.”

As most students of the Word know, Pauls letters have been grossly mistranslated and are full of interpolations. Tares amongst the wheat.

BYW, that is a rather harsh statement to make…while you have one finger pointing at your friends who wish to honour the Voice of YHWH, there are 3 fingers pointing back at yourself dear friend.

Rather could it be a matter of of considering Pauls letters above the words / the VOICE of YHWH?

We must all be convinced in our own minds, as to what we believe 🙂 But let not our individual interpretations divide us.
