There were 613 rules and regulations in the old covenant. For someone to assert that the old covenant is still in effect and that they abide by it by not eating pork or shrimp or catfish, and that they keep the sabbath…while completely ignoring all of the other 611 rules and regulations in the old covenant…seems more than a bit disingenuous and hypocritical. The New Testament documents made it very clear to the Judaizers that you’re either ‘all in’ regarding the old covenant, or you’re not in it ‘at all’.


Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
