[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Leviticus 11:12: "That which has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is a detestable thing unto you"

No shrimp - ever.  This is one of the key things I talk to my kids about.  I apply the same credence to all of Leviticus, not just some parts.[/quote]

There is an actual, Biblical reason that Christians believe the moral law still applies, but the civil law for Israel and the ceremonial law for Old Testament worship does not.

Romans 14:5-8 
One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.  Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.  For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone.  If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.[/quote]

I disagree.  There is nothing that says the old laws don't apply.  In fact Jesus says the opposite in Matthew 5:17- “[i]Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them[/i]."

If you wish to obey god's laws and achieve salvation you obey all of them.  Not just the convenient ones.[/quote]
