>>contrasted against the old mosaic law about eating blood and meat of sacrificed animals to idols.<<

Old mosaic law?? And only the blood from meat sacrificed to itdols?? Are you kidding or do you not know what scripture says.?

Deuteronomy 12:22 Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat them: the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike. 23 Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh.

That was anything they ate. And it's not just "old mosaic law" either.

Acts 15:29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

It does NOT say blood from meat offered to idols, it says and from blood. The prohibition from eating blood remains. Christ would have been sinning by eating blood and encouraging others to do so.

You keep making the same irrelevant argument.

Christ ended the mosaic laws about eating. It is in the Bible look it up.

Can you not understand the difference in God’s gift to us with the “His Body and Blood”? Do you not distinguish between the “Body and Blood” of Jesus versus the blood of an animal that you slauhghter for eating?

Jesus told us directly to do this for our salvation. To me you are like the Pharisees that try to follow the strict laws of the Jews, but ignores the intentions of Jesus.

You keep calling Jesus a sinner for taking and giving us “His Body and Blood”.

Let try to understand your argument that it is against God’s law to eat blood. Can Jesus change that law with regard to “His Body and Blood”?
