Does Your Ministry Follow a Strict Kosher Diet?

4/10/2020

 
This question is very easy to answer – no. We do not follow a strict Kosher diet.

You will often see us use the word “Kosher” because it sometimes makes it easier to explain things to our family and friends. We ARE trying to work our way away from using the term because it is clearly rabbinic in nature and does not describe our teachings exactly.

We believe in following the biblical diet as described by Yahweh in scriptures. Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 explain this very well. Rabbinic teachings, however, take things down a different road sometimes and allow certain ingredients that we would not consume ourselves.

Additionally, rabbinic teachings would include being very strict on not allowing foods to be cooked in the same pots as certain other foods. This is very restrictive, and in many homes or cultures, almost impossible to accomplish.

A final requirement of following a strict Kosher diet is that food preparation and other aspects must be approved by and/or blessed by the rabbi. Because we are not participants in, nor are we practicing Judaism, we do not follow this path either.

What we follow is, as I said, a Biblical diet. We believe that the Bible describes what is food and what is not food. This is especially important in the area of meats. Some things which have become extremely common in especially the American diet today, are things Yahweh labelled as “unclean” and also labelled “abominable.” One thought that often comes across my mind is that many Believers in Christ very openly believe certain behaviours to be abominable – such as those under Yahweh’s moral code: adultery, sexual immorality, pornography, etc. They also would believe that abuse of spouse or children would be abominable. But if you press them regarding the topic of certain meats being abominable, they will say Yahweh did away with that restriction or counsel. We can show through scripture that this is not the case.

Therefore, we choose to follow the descriptions of food as Yahweh designed them to be.

I hope this helps to clarify for you.
 
Blessings and Shalom.

    She views the

    ​websites as a ministry that has the potential to change lives in women and families for generations. She does not take her calling lightly, but sees herself as a steward of Yahweh's truth. With that stewardship comes  accountability to Yahweh to cut through the error seen online and only deliver facts as clearly affirmed by scripture.

    Jim often writes articles and books and will join Judith in writing for the TorahforWomen.com website. Judi feels it's important that a man's view point be included on the site for balance and perspective. Jim has researched  many of the issues about women and has shattered the error of traditional doctrines with scriptural evidence. Like Judi, Jim also has a passion for truth and the teachings of Yahweh.
