They deal only with food and drink and different kinds of special washings. They are rules people had to obey only until the new covenant came.

“‘ Or suppose someone touches something not“ clean.” It could be the dead bodies of wild animals or of livestock. Or it could be the dead bodies of creatures that move along the ground. Even though those people are not aware that they touched them, they have become“ unclean.” And they are guilty.

You won’t remain in the Lord’ s land. Ephraim, you will return to Egypt. You will eat“ unclean” food in Assyria.

You who carry the objects that belong to the Lord’ s temple, leave Babylon! Leave it! Get out of there! Don’t touch anything that isn’t pure and“ clean.” Come out of Babylon and be pure.

Those are the things that make you‘ unclean.’ But eating without washing your hands does not make you‘ unclean.’ ”

They saw some of his disciples eating food with“ unclean” hands. That means they were not washed.

I am absolutely sure that nothing is“ unclean” in itself. The Lord Jesus has convinced me of this. But someone may consider a thing to be“ unclean.” If they do, it is“ unclean” for them.Your brother or sister may be upset by what you eat. If they are, you are no longer acting as though you love them. So don’t destroy them by what you eat. Remember that Christ died for them.So suppose you know something is good. Then don’t let it be spoken of as if it were evil.God’s kingdom is not about eating or drinking. It is about doing what is right and having peace and joy. All this comes through the Holy Spirit.

So don’t go along with people like that.

So,“ Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch anything that is not pure and‘ clean.’ Then I will receive you.”( Isaiah 52:11; Ezekiel 20:34, 41)

Don’t eat food that has been offered to statues of gods. Don’t drink blood. Don’t eat the meat of animals that have been choked to death. And don’t commit sexual sins. You will do well to keep away from these things. Farewell.

“ Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!”Rules like these are about things that will pass away soon. They are based on merely human rules and teachings.It is true that these rules seem wise. Because of them, people give themselves over to their own kind of worship. They pretend they are humble. They treat their bodies very badly. But rules like these don’t help. They don’t stop people from chasing after sinful pleasures.

Have nothing to do with the acts of darkness. They don’t produce anything good. Show what they are really like.

He said to them,“ You know that it is against our law for a Jew to enter a Gentile home. A Jew shouldn’t have any close contact with a Gentile. But God has shown me that I should not say anyone is not pure and‘ clean.’

But food doesn’t bring us close to God. We are no worse if we don’t eat. We are no better if we do eat.

He became hungry. He wanted something to eat. While the meal was being prepared, Peter had a vision.He saw heaven open up. There he saw something that looked like a large sheet. It was being let down to earth by its four corners.It had all kinds of four- footed animals in it. It also had reptiles and birds in it.Then a voice told him,“ Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.”“ No, Lord! I will not!” Peter replied.“ I have never eaten anything that is not pure and‘ clean.’ ”The voice spoke to him a second time. It said,“ Do not say anything is not pure that God has made‘ clean.’ ”

Nothing outside of a person can make them‘ unclean’ by going into them. It is what comes out of them that makes them‘ unclean.’ ”

What goes into someone’s mouth does not make them‘ unclean.’ It’s what comes out of their mouth that makes them‘ unclean.’ ”

So don’t let anyone judge you because of what you eat or drink. Don’t let anyone judge you about holy days. I’m talking about special feasts and New Moons and Sabbath days.

“ Don’t you understand?” Jesus asked.“ Don’t you see? Nothing that enters a person from the outside can make them‘ unclean.’

Don’t eat meat if it causes your brother or sister to sin. Don’t drink wine or do anything else that will make them sin.
