That is what you said. You said the death of Christ and the creation of his church was not to replace Judaism but a fulfillment of it. Als0 with him came a end to the sacrificial system and an end to the selling of forgiveness and the removal of that by taking the punishment for breaking Gods law as indicated in Leviticus from Man to God. You used all of that to say it was ok to eat pork and non-scaled fish, in essence breaking the levitical laws.

Just what I summed up in an earlier post.

No, I pointed out scripture in which God spoke to the subject of the cleanliness of that which once was considered unclean..
to the extent of telling the apostle not to call common that which God has blessed. What part of that escapes you.

Men abused the old system, yes. And since you don't seem to get it, let me be plain - moreso than before as though that were possible.

Men once upon a time had the office given them by God to stand as judge of a court over other men's sinful actions.
In modern times it wouldn't be much different than being a
Justice of the court in any given judicial district in the USA. The judge's task is to here testimony, see and weigh the evidence, and adjudicate the matter by finding for or against the accused and applying sentence where needed. That is judgement. Using one's "better judgement" is in no manner the same as "adjudicating" an issue. You don't seem to have the concept that for people to end up before such a magistrate, they had to be accused of something to begin with. That accusation isn't judgement, it is merely the use of observation and communication to bring to the attention of proper authority that which has transpired. And somehow in your mind, the two have become one - probably from the same misunderstanding of abused out of context scripture that the world is ignorant of.

So, you summed up something in your earlier post; but, you didn't sum up what I said. You summed up some other argument you seem to rather be having.
