In the last comic I brought up the 4 commands given to the new converts by the Jerusalem council. There was a challenge given to my statements around it that brought up that Paul did away with those commands in 1 Corinthians 8. Paul talks about how that meat sacrificed to idols really isn't anything because those idols aren't anything. That we should only not eat it if we are going to cause someone else to stumble.
However, that isn't where Paul finishes his thoughts on the subject. If we move forward to chapter 10, Paul explicitly states to NOT eat that meat if we know that it has been sacrificed to idols. Because it has been sacrificed to demons, and you cannot take part of demons and Christ at the same time.
I have pointed out in several comics over the years, context is everything. One big issue with using Paul to say that this, or any command, is no longer valid or not valid for Gentiles is it takes Paul out of context with the rest of Scripture. Many, including myself several years ago, read the New Testament without any knowledge of what the Old Testament says. We read the NT without any context. One HUGE key of context that is missing is Deuteronomy 13. In that chapter, God gives the instructions on how to know if someone is a false prophet.
"3 you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. The Lord your God is testing you to find out whether you love him with all your heart and with all your soul. 4 It is the Lord your God you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him"
Many look at the first two verses that talk of the signs and wonders, but God also gives us further detail in these verses above. Anyone that takes us away from keeping God's commands, that is a false prophet. If Paul was teaching against God's commands, Paul would be a false prophet. However, we know Paul isn't a false prophet as have Scripture to let us know Paul isn't speaking against God's commands. Paul was accused of the teaching the same thing during his time, but that account was settled in Acts 21:17-23 and shown to be a false accusation.
