A Revelation About Blood

Many years ago, as soon as I became a Christian, I started reading the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and when I finished it, I started from Genesis again. There were certain scriptures that I felt the Holy Spirit was impressing upon me, and I wanted to look at them more closely. The food laws in the Torah was an area that particularly struck me. I felt the Holy Spirit telling me, “That is how I want you to eat”. It would happen every time I read those scriptures. At first, I wondered, because the church I attended did not teach about the subject of food, and none of the mature Christians I knew were obeying any special food laws. Nevertheless, since the Holy Spirit kept dealing with me, I started to slowly take away the “unclean” meats.

One day a Lake Hamilton Bible Camp newsletter came in the mail, and I read an article about a discovery. While ministering to a lady who had a blood disease (I believe it was diabetes), the ministers were trying to cast out a demon that said it had a right to be in her, because she had eaten blood. They discovered that eating blood gave rights to demons to bring blood diseases to people, Christian or not. Why? Because it is written:

But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. (Genesis 9:4)

It shall be a perpetual statute for your generations throughout all your dwellings, that ye eat neither fat nor blood. (Leviticus 3:17)

And the fat of the beast that dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be used in any other use: but ye shall in no wise eat of it. For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire unto the Lord, even the soul that eateth it shall be cut off from his people. Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood, whether it be of fowl or of beast, in any of your dwellings. Whatsoever soul it be that eateth any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his people. (Leviticus 7:24-27)

And whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people. For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood. And whatsoever man there be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust. For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off. (Leviticus 17:10-14)

Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times. (Leviticus 19:26)

Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water. (Deuteronomy 12:16)

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. Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water. Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the Lord. (Deuteronomy 12:23-25)

Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water. (Deuteronomy 15:23)

From the above, we can learn the following: neither the children of Israel nor “the strangers” were to eat fat or blood. If your ancestors were not Israelites, but you are a Christian, you have been grafted into the vine, so spiritually you are an Israelite. (Even if you don’t believe so, how do you know there are no Israelis in your ancestry?)

We learn that the soul that eats blood will be “cut off”; “cut off” means death, obviously by blood disease. This is a curse of death. We learn that this curse is inherited, and it falls upon generation after generation. This means that even if you have never eaten blood, the curse falls on you if your ancestors did.

You might think your family would not do something as disgusting as drinking blood. How about eating blood? Many European and American cultures make “blood pudding” and blood sausage. If you eat Cajun food or Spanish food, you may be eating blood sausage (like boudin). And if you like your steaks rare with the red juice running all over your plate, you may be eating blood.

Arriving to a Conclusion

When I read that article in the Lake Hamilton newsletter, I realized that the same would apply to eating “unclean” meats. If we eat something that the word of God specifically says not to eat, we are giving demons legal rights to enter.

To verify my conclusion, I tested it by having a “mass deliverance” of demons that entered by eating prohibited foods, including blood. I tested it on a group of about 25 ladies. I made a short list of “unclean” animals. I led the ladies in a prayer of confession and repentance for having eating things prohibited by the Lord, and they asked forgiveness and were forgiven. Then, since the demons no longer had legal rights, I commanded them to go one by one, according to each kind of food. There was tremendous deliverance in the group. There was a lady who had eaten some unusual animals, such as snake and armadillo. The Lord brought those to her mind, she asked me to work on those, which I did, and the lady was delivered of those demons also.

And the Lord spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them, Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth. Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat. Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: As the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you. These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat. And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you: They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination. Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you. And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray, And the vulture, and the kite after his kind; Every raven after his kind; And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind, And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl, And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle, And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat. All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you. Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth; Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind. But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you. These also shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind, And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole. (Leviticus 11:1-30)

Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing. These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois. And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft into two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that ye shall eat. Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean unto you. And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase. These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat: And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you. Of all clean birds ye shall eat. But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray, And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind, And every raven after his kind, And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind, The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan, And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant, And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat. And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten. But of all clean fowls ye may eat. (Deuteronomy 14:3-20)

Healthy Eating Doctors and Healthy Eating Books

Is it a coincidence that modern science has found that eating the very same foods that God prohibits is not good for your health? There are several Christian doctors on TV programs who have also written books advocating healthy eating, and their guidelines are the same as the word of God says.

But What About The “Other” Scriptures?

Some Christians get really, really angry when I suggest they follow the food laws. I wonder what makes them so angry? One of the first scriptures they bring out to defend their eating is:

On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour. And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance. And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth: Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven. Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate, And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there. While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee. Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them. (Acts 10:9-20)

And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean. (Acts 10:28)

And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing. And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God. Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee. Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God. (Acts 10:30-33)

The interpretation of Peter’s vision was not about food, but about people – Jewish and gentile people. A triple vision just before three gentile men knocked at the door. And Peter, who walked with Jesus and was filled with the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit, was not sure what it meant. He was not sure because it was a paradigm shift for him—the shift being for Messianic Jews to stop rejecting gentiles and rather to accept all people who wanted to believe in the Messiah. The Holy Spirit told him to quit doubting his interpretation of the vision.

There are other scriptures that bring confusion to this issue of food. But we must remember that the first church was at Jerusalem, and the head of the church in Jerusalem was James, the brother of Jesus. This church kept the Sabbath and went to the temple, and Sundays they would meet from house to house. They kept the laws as Jesus commanded:

Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:17-19)

Now the above might go against some Christians’ theology, but deliverance uncovers the truth. And the truth is that eating as God commanded is a matter of life or death.

One Additional Anecdote

Many years ago I was attending a Bible study in a lady’s home with a group from a Methodist church that my husband and I were attending at the time. We were studying the passage in Acts referred to previously about Peter’s vision. The study leader asked for comments, and I said that I didn’t think this passage was talking about food at all; that it was an allegory for Peter to understand not to reject Gentiles from becoming part of the Messianic movement. Therefore, that being the case, then the food laws still applied today, that is, we shouldn’t eat pork, bacon, etc. No sooner had I said this than the lady of the house exploded in an outburst completely disagreeing with me. It shocked me because this was so out of character for this normally calm and demure “spiritual” lady. I felt the Holy Spirit witness to me that food indeed was a spiritual issue, that this reaction was too over the top for it not to be a spiritual issue.

I have also had other Christian friends mock me and put down this particular viewpoint of the food laws. In conversation, I was not trying to impose my beliefs on them; people can eat however they want, it’s between them and God. Yet, they seemed to object to my decision to eat “kosher”, so to speak, to the point of ridicule. Again, this appears to be a spiritual issue. The demons do not want us to obey God in even, what appears to be to me, the smallest and easiest law to follow. It’s not a huge sacrifice in my opinion. For me, better to be safe than telling the Lord, “sorry”.
