So, do you eat the Passover? Do you eat pork? Do you offer sacrifices at the Temple?

The MORAL law is unchangeable. The Jewish RITUAL law could and did change.

The prohibition on drinking the blood of the victim existed for a certain reason—that the victim’s life belonged to God. That reason ceased to exist when the victim was no longer an animal, but Jesus himself. The life of Jesus belongs to US. He gave it to us.

He TELLS us that he has given us his life precisely by commanding that we drink his blood.

Proof from scripture please.

The prohibition against eating blood was NOT just for the animals sacrificed.

And yet you can provide no support for your position other than the tradition of men and your own opinion...

No. Not one jot or tittle. There is no distinction within Torah denoting a division between a moral and ritual law. Torah is Torah, and Torah is forever.
