Pork
Now I know that I’m not going to make a lot of friends here, but I have to speak the truth; pork kills. A pig is not food. It is a garbage disposal unit, eating anything and everything it can get in its mouth. It is a filthy creature, wallowing in its own excrement, and is infested with disease because its body is not designed to properly process all that it eats. This toxic waste dump on legs is totally consumed by humans more than any other animal, and is a large part of why we are so sick in this country.
When we want to put someone down, what do we call him or her? A filthy pig. When a man is behaving badly towards a woman, what do we call him? A male chauvinist pig. Pigs eat too much, are sloppy, and smell. They are dangerous as well, as any truck driver who has had to deliver them will tell you. When they are hungry they will attack and kill anyone or anything, even each other. Their bodies are so diseased that they don’t normally live long lives, even when not butchered (unless they are a family pet, but they are not eaten and therefore do not count.) These animals are simply not suitable for human consumption.
Please, don’t take my word for it… there are many others who agree with these statements, most notably Dr. J.H. Kellogg, founder of the cereal company that bears his name. Most importantly, however, is what our Creator had to say regarding this animal.
"Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, 'These are the creatures which you may eat from all the animals that are on the earth. Whatever divides a hoof, thus making split hoofs, and chews the cud, among the animals, that you may eat. Nevertheless, you are not to eat of these, among those which chew the cud, or among those which divide the hoof: the camel, for though it chews cud, it does not divide the hoof, it is unclean to you… and the pig, for though it divides the hoof, thus making a split hoof, it does not chew cud, it is unclean to you. You shall not eat of their flesh nor touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.’” (Leviticus 11:2-8)
This was so important to Adonai that it is repeated again in the 14th chapter of Deuteronomy.
At this point many might be thinking, “But we don’t have to follow those dietary laws any more!” You know what? You are right. You don’t have to follow the dietary laws if you don’t want to. You also don’t have to follow the Ten Commandments if you don’t want to, but that would be sinning. Choosing not to follow the dietary laws make you a sinner as well, but instead of eternal damnation, you live a diseased life. Adonai created us so He would know best what it considered food. The full list is available for all to study in the 11th chapter of Leviticus.
Now, if you were to say to me, “Those laws were nailed to the cross,” I would have to disagree entirely. Yeshua (Jesus) Himself stated that He did not come to do away with the law (Matthew 5:17) but to fill it up full of meaning. Another misunderstanding involves the following verse:
And He said to them, "Are you so lacking in understanding also? Do you not understand that whatever goes into the man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and is eliminated?" (Thus He declared all foods clean.) (Mark 7:18-19)
What we see at the end of this verse is called a “parenthetical insertion” and is not found in the original text. The translator inserted the statement, “Thus He declared all food clean.” This shows the translator’s lack of understanding; Yeshua would never refer to pork as food because He followed all of the dietary laws detailed in Leviticus.
Peter’s vision about the sheet (Acts 10) had nothing to do with animals and everything to do with man. Peter himself gives the interpretation of this vision when he stated:
And he said to them, "You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a man who is a Jew to associate with a foreigner or to visit him; and yet God has shown me that I should not call any man unholy or unclean. That is why I came without even raising any objection when I was sent for. So I ask for what reason you have sent for me." (Acts 10:28-29)
Isaiah has a warning for all of those who continue to eat the flesh of the pig (swine):
"I have spread out My hands all day long to a rebellious people, who walk in the way which is not good, following their own thoughts, a people who continually provoke Me to My face, Offering sacrifices in gardens and burning incense on bricks; who sit among graves and spend the night in secret places; who eat swine's flesh, and the broth of unclean meat is in their pots. Who say, 'Keep to yourself, do not come near me, for I am holier than you!' These are smoke in My nostrils, a fire that burns all the day. Behold, it is written before Me, I will not keep silent, but I will repay; I will even repay into their bosom, both their own iniquities and the iniquities of their fathers together," says the LORD. "Because they have burned incense on the mountains and scorned Me on the hills, therefore I will measure their former work into their bosom." (Isaiah 65:2-7)
For the LORD will execute judgment by fire and by His sword on all flesh, and those slain by the LORD will be many. "Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go to the gardens, following one in the center, who eat swine's flesh, detestable things and mice, will come to an end altogether," declares the LORD. (Isaiah 66:16-17)
Think about it folks… what group of people have rebelled against God’s laws and eat the flesh of swine and say to others, “I am holier than thou”? Sounds like Christians to me. Maybe it’s time to rethink our stance on this issue?
Now let’s take a look at the scientific view of the hog/swine/pig. As noted earlier, Dr. Kellogg studied this animal extensively and has written a very good paper discussing his results. He discovered that these animals are very sick indeed. Heart disease, tuberculosis, and tapeworms are normal for them, as well as many various parasites. When we eat their meat, or use their fat (lard) in cooking, we are ingesting these parasites as well.
There is one feature of the pig that most people are unaware of, and it is found on their legs. Here Dr. Kellogg describes this feature (warning, this description is not for the squeamish):
But we have not yet finished the examination of our hog. If you can possibly prevail upon yourself to sacrifice your taste in the cause of science, pork-loving friend, just clamber over into the reeking sty, and take a nearer view of the animal that is destined to delight the palates of some of your friends, perhaps your own. Make him straighten out his fore legs. Now observe closely. Do you see the open sore or issue, a few inches above his foot on the inner side? Do you say it is a mere accidental abrasion? Find the same on the other leg; it is rather a wise and wonderful provision of nature. Grasp the leg high up and press downward. Now you see its utility, as a mass of corruption pours out. That opening is the outlet of a sewer. Yes, a scrofulous sewer; and hence the offensive, ichorous matter which discharges from it. Should you fill a syringe with mercury or some colored injecting fluid, and drive the contents into this same opening, you would be able to trace all through the body of the animal little pipes communicating with it.
What must be the condition of the body of an animal so foul as to require a regular system of drainage to convey away its teeming filth? Sometimes the outlet gets closed by the accumulation of external filth. Then the ichorous stream ceases to flow, and the animal quickly sickens and dies unless the owner cleanses the parts, and so opens anew the feculent fountain, and allows the festering poison to escape.
Suddenly those pork chops don’t look quite so appetizing, huh? If you are still not convinced, try this little trick: get a piece of pork and pour vodka on it and see what happens. When my friend did this he discovered all kinds of creepy things coming out. This didn’t happen when he poured it over steak.
Adonai is our creator and so He knows what is best for us, no? Why would He want to do anything to hurt us? He wouldn’t; He loves us too much. That is why He has given us directions to care for these bodies of ours. When He tells us not to eat something, it is for our own good, not because He wants to be mean to us. Sure, clams might taste good, but how many people get sick every year because of eating them?
When He created the world He created a self-sustaining one, where things that died would be cleaned up and processed naturally. It was all good. Every time we get our hands on something, we mess it up. We’ve done it time and time again. The SAD diet is a perfect example, and pork is all over that diet. Bacon is everywhere, pork gelatin is in places you’d never dream of, and if we saw the fat of a pig we would never use lard again. Take a good look at your menu and see how many things have bacon added, and how many of our pizza toppings are made from pork. Most of our pre-packaged Italian dinners contain pork sausage. Ham sandwiches are everywhere. All-beef hot dogs are much more expensive than the ones made with pork. The list goes on and on.
The world tells us that pork/ham is absolutely safe to eat. God says that it make us unclean/sick. We need to ask ourselves, “Who do we trust more, God or man?” The one we trust is the one we will allow to nourish us. Who are we getting our nourishment from?
The global elite has decided that we are no longer worth the air we breath, so they have made plans to destroy us and we blindly follow along, not questioning them, simply doing what we are told, believing what we are told, and saying what we are told. We have been taught to simply regurgitate facts and that is what we do. We eat what they tell us to eat and when the effects are shown in our bodies, they act like they don’t know why we are sick. Are we the fools? Are they the fools? Maybe we all are.
We are fools if we continue to follow their lead, eating their food and believing that if you pray over something that somehow makes it clean. How can we ask Adonai to bless something that He has specifically told us not to eat? Are we really so narcissistic that we don’t believe that the rules apply to us? Or are we simply that ignorant?
I just know one thing: the world does not love us. Adonai loves us. He has told us so. The world has told us that they want to eliminate 80 to 90% (+/-) of us as quickly as possible. So, whom are you going to believe and trust with your health and, indeed, your very life?
The LORD appeared to him from afar, saying, "I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have drawn you with lovingkindness. Again I will build you and you will be rebuilt, O virgin of Israel! Again you will take up your tambourines, and go forth to the dances of the merrymakers.” (Jeremiah 31:3-4)
