118: Why Did God Declare Pork Unclean and Then Clean? - a podcast by Kenneth Ortiz

In the pages of the Old Testament, we see God declare pork (and several other foods) as unclean. Any person that ate these foods would be labeled "unclean" meaning that he/she would be unfit for worship. But when we fast forward to the New Testament, we see God declare pork clean. Why?



In this episode, Kenny dives into understanding why God declared pork unclean in the Old Testament but then declares it clean in the New Testament.



Kenny reminds us that we must consider why God told them to refrain from eating pork in the first place. The Old Testament mandates do not apply to New Testament believers, however when we examine God’s purposes and motives in these matters, we learn valuable lessons that do indeed apply to the lives of New Testament believers.
