As all here know, I was borned a Jew.
I accepted Christ in 1957, but have pretty much kept our Jewish roots.
I do not eat pig at all never had, until the other day a neighbor pulled a fast one and gave me a sandwich which he told me it was lamb meat.
Contrary to my feelings not to eat it, I did.
Now I have being so sick from my stomach I almost went to the hospital last night.
Am taking bout 5 different medication for gastritis and am still blotted like a sea cow.
The Neighbor thought it was a funny Joke, now he is scared to death, that I would sued him, he thought it was funny to see me eat pork and later tell me and laugh like a fool.
People Just don't understand this is a way of life for us, I guess my stomach knows better and is Kosher.
So please pray for my condition, I sure appreciate it.
Shalom

Alex, I don't like pork but on occasion do eat it . . .just because it's served. I do believe you will pull thru it tho. What your neighbor did was insensitive at best but tell me how, as a Jew you could'nt tell that this meat was not lamb? As one that eats lamb pretty frequently I would be able to tell the difference. Or am I wrong in my assumption that you would eat lamb yourself.
Chicken or fowl of any kind is my big thing that I don't want to eat as just the thought of biting into it make my stomach queasy . . .but once again, if its served, I will at least have one small serving.

Thats horrible. Sorry to hear it. Too bad he didn't respect your culture. I will pray you feel better.
But on a side note. Wasn't it Peter who didn't want to eat unclean animals? And God corrected him promptly? Several other passages in the New Test.If you accept Jesus, then its culturally only? Right? I mean your under a new covenant now right? Maybe its Satan clouding your head about whats said in the scriptures? Maybe not, maybe your under your original covenant. But if you are, then I still don't understand. Do you wear a leather belt with a cotton shirt? Is a female during her period unclean for 7 days? I guess way I see it, one can't pick and choose. Maybe I am wrong.
Sorry about that Alex..I will be praying for you.. I like pork and have been eating it all my life and never been sick from it and i am 77 years old..There is nothing wrong with eating pork if you want to..

Alex all I can say is you're a better man than I. Were I in the same situation and that happened I would've had to just let my anger get the better of me and WHIP HIS AZZ for good measure!!! I also think you should just scare the crap out of him for not only your own humor but as a warning shot "across his bow" and to make him feel doubly sorry. Have a buddy call up and act like either a lawyer who is putting together preliminary evidence for a possible suit. Or have them act like an investigator who is looking into possible civil rights/hate crime violations. Let the ahole sweat for a few days and then have him over one night (thinking he is answering too the start of the lawsuit) and then just let him be on the hotseat. What he did was VERY wrong, inconsiderate, disrespectfuland shouldn't be passed off as a childish prank!!! I SERIOUSLY doubt he would ever try such a stunt on a muslim so why is what he did too you any less of a violation?
My paternal grandfather was Hebrew, not Jewish because he also believed in Christ but he didn't eat pork and his sabbath was on Saturday and he was known to attend synagogues on occasion. My grandmother WAS raised a jew and she slowly converted too my grandfathers way of Hebrewism but after his death several years ago, she has since expressed interest in returning too her strict Jewish ways.
When I was young I used to stay with them for weeks at a time during the summer so eating things like beef bacon and kosher items (no catfish, trout etc...)was something I considered "neat". I simply can't imagine what would've happened had someone tried something like that on my grandfather (well I can as he was a Green Beret Sgt.veteran of WWII and Korea and someone probably would've been killed!).
