[u:f16687bf60]Leviticus 17:10-12[/u:f16687bf60]
10"And whatever man of the house of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell among you, who eats any blood, I will set My face against that person who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people. 11For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.' 12Therefore I said to the children of Israel, "No one among you shall eat blood, nor shall any stranger who dwells among you eat blood.'
[u:f16687bf60]Acts 15:28-29[/u:f16687bf60]
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: 29 that you abstain from things offered to idols, [b:f16687bf60]from blood,[/b:f16687bf60] from things strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well.
Question: Is it okay for a Christian to eat a rare (or medium rare) steak?
