Dear All,
Kindly voice your opinion on this Topic> I like to know if it's ideal for a christian to accept and eat salah meat from his muslim neighbours.

I'm a christian and I'm gonna eat sallah meat,

That I eat the meat doesnt mean I'm celebrating their festival,besides it's not like the meat is impure.

Besides the question on 25th of december will be 'is it right for muslims to accept gifts from christians',lol

13 Then a voice told him, “Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.”

14 “Surely not, Lord!” Peter replied. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.”

15 The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.”

Bless the food and eat wink

1Co 8:4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.
1Co 8:5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
1Co 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
1Co 8:7 Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
1Co 8:8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
1Co 8:9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.
1Co 8:10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
1Co 8:11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
1Co 8:12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
1Co 8:13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

Acts 15:28-29 NLT
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit
and to us to lay no greater burden on you than these few requirements
29 You must abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood
or the meat of strangled animals, and from intimate immorality.
If you do this, you will do well. Farewell."

Acts 21:25 NLT
"As for the Gentile believers, they should do what we already told them in a letter:
They should abstain from eating food offered to idols
,
from consuming blood or the meat of strangled animals,
and from intimate immorality."

Acts 21:25 KJV
And concerning the Gentiles who believe,
we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing,
except only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols
,
and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication


Same Paul said NO in Acts 15:28-29 and Acts 21:25

1 Co 8:4-13 must have been after the Peter vision if not why now the "Paul turning a blind eye to eating food offered to idols" stance.

@Op
Its not ok...infact its very wrong for a christian to eat sallah meat.

Passages of the scriptures have been provided already to back up our stand, so I need not post any again.

I won't call it a blind eye, but rather a clear exposition, that very much leans on the 'don't eat' side. Read the whole book too for good measure.
