Forbidding meat is talked about in the bible...........its a sin to do so and the sign of a false religion.....ask your pastor about the Doctrine of Devils and the mention of forbidding meat....................love to hear him talk his way out of this one.Diakonos said:...and that is what I am struggling with. My Pastor has called the entire congretion to this fast for 3 weeks. I strength train. There is not a lot of protein built into this fast. So...
I am looking for ways to get more protein without violating the guidlines of the fast.
No meat, poultry, milk, eggs, sodium, additives & preservatives.
Many of the protein supplments on the market are high in sodium, and sugars.
Any suggestions.

Read 1 Timothy 4:1-5. It tells us that ???in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils???commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.???Diakonos said:...and that is what I am struggling with.

I think its best if you believe in Jesus to read his teachings for yourselfDiakonos said:Our Pastor isn't asking us to permantly obstain from meat. Nor does she suggest that there is something inherently evil about eating it. The fast is only for 21 days.![]()

NeilPearson said:If there is nothing wrong with eating meat, why do the fast then? I am not clear what it is supposed to accomplish.
Diakonos said:It's simply another type of fast. Sometimes we do a fruit and juice fast from sun up to sun down (were all we consume for the day is fruit and juice). Some of our members go on an absolute fast or a water only fast for a period of time. It really depends on what the corporate goal of the church is (or individual goal of the member is). In preperation for our new season in our ministry, we our on the Daniel Fast.

Your pastor is wrong and directly going against the teachings of Jesus............read the bible for yourself.............don't just blindly follow a false teacher![]()
2. Jesus didn't teach this, as you claimed earlier in this thread. The apostle Paul said this in a private letter he wrote to Timothy (one of his proteges and sons in the ministry).Read 1 Timothy 4:1-5. It tells us that ???in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils???commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

I'm Christian.NealPearson said:Just curious... what religion is this?
Diakonos said:Don't get it twisted friend.
1. I don't blindly follow anyone. I spend a good amount of time studying the scriptures. Which brings me to my second point.
2. Jesus didn't teach this, as you claimed earlier in this thread. The apostle Paul said this in a private letter he wrote to Timothy (one of his proteges and sons in the ministry).
With all due respect, you don't know me well enough to pass judgement on what I believe. It would make more sense to ask questions the way that NeilPearson has.
I'm Christian.
NeilPearson said:Non-denominational? What is the name of the church?
Just curious because most Protestant religions have pretty much abandoned fasting and it is obviously not a lent fast. The only Protestant Christian religion that I have heard of that fasts is some Evangelicals - and that has only been in the last ten years or so.
