CG7 Still Against Unclean Meats
The lead article of the latest issue of CG7’s Bible Advocate begins with:
Our bodies are better witnesses than our beliefs alone.
I learned this truth over lunch with three co-workers at Pizza Hut. One was a long-time friend and committed Christian. The other two were fresh on the job and not believers.
Loading our plates at the buffet, I asked the waitress if the admired pizza had pork sausage or hamburger on it. Back at the table I found my friend Todd explaining to the others my custom of eating according to the biblical principle of clean and unclean foods.
I was pleased to see that CG 7-Denver still teaches against the consumption of biblically unclean animals. At two new jobs (one the very first day and the other within a month) my bosses and/or employees learned that I would not eat certain meats they tried to insist I try.
Here are two articles of possibly-related interest:
The New Testament Church and Unclean Meats Are foods considered to have been unclean in the Old Testament considered to be food in the New Testament? This article discusses this from the perspective of the New Testament. It also has a list of clean and unclean animals.
Church of God, Seventh Day: History and Teachings Nearly all COG’s I am aware of trace their history through this group. Whaid Rose is the president of the largest CG7 group (Denver). Do you know much about them?
