As a Christian, no intake of any sort of blood should be accepted. Of course, these are my standards and not yours, so like what you wish.

Edited by Elder Maxson: 4/26/2016 3:10:53 PMGenesis 9, 4: "God allowed Noah and his family to add animal flesh to their diet after the flood but commanded them not to eat the blood. God told Noah "only flesh with its souls --- the blood --- you must not eat. This command applies to all mankind from that time on because all are descendants of Noah. Leviticus 17:14. “You must not eat the blood of any sort of flesh, because the soul of every sort of flesh is its blood. Anyone eating it will be cut off.” God viewed the soul, or life, as being in the blood and belonging to him. Although this law was given only to the nation of Israel, it shows how seriously God viewed the law against eating blood. Acts 15:20. “Abstain . . . from blood.” God gave Christians the same command that he had given to Noah. History shows that early Christians refused to consume whole blood or even to use it for medical reasons.

What about the blood of Christ?
-
The blood of the Christ is symbolic for the new covenant, which over his blood is possible. It doesn't mean you're taking it in, it means you remember his sacrifice for you.
-
Leviticus also talks about not wearing mixed fibers lol
-
That was the original covenant and Sabbath, which Jews follow, and Christians believe was done away with when the new covenant was established.
-
But then wouldn't everything from Leviticus be irrelevant now then
-
No, only the original covenant with God, which was the original way to make up for sins. When Jesus gave his life and the new covenant was established, the old covenant and anything to do with the Sabbath was gone. Most of Leviticus is [i]not[/i] related to the Sabbath and such.
