"I don't know how we did it but Watie gave the order, Which he always led, And his men could follow him into the very jaws of death. The Indian rebel yell was given and we fought like tigers three to one. It must have been that mysterious power of Stand Watie that led us to capture such odds." -Cherokee Brave

IIRC, what caused them to block me was when I started quoting the Disciple Peter's vision ("GO, KILL AND EAT"), which represented that Gentiles were going to be added to the New Covenant and grafted onto Israel (Romans 11, IIRC) without becoming Jews themselves. It was not an abolition of dietary laws for Messianic Jews, but it was a reinforcement of what would become Acts 15, which stated that Gentiles would not have to follow Jewish dietary laws unless explicitly mentioned in Acts 15.

I laughed at this blocking, because Satan ALWAYS runs when a Believer unsheathes the Sword of the Spirit, which is God's Word. It is, after all, the only offensive weapon in the Full Armor of God. Both Ezekiel and Watchman's fathers are Satan, and God will be more merciful on Atheists than He will be on those two, because those two specifically try to place Stumbling Blocks against Believers.

Pertaining to dietary laws for Gentiles, this is the simple list.

From Acts 15, a Gentile Christian cannot:

1. Willingly consume blood;
2. Eat the flesh of an animal strangled by asphyxiation;
3. Eat meat explicitly sacrificed to an idol (e.g. Halal meat).

From the Code of Noah, a Gentile Christian cannot:

4. Eat the flesh of an animal that is still alive (a more ancient reiteration of Acts 15's first provision).

You guessed correctly: the Watchmen and Ezekiel kids DO in fact deny the Holy Trinity AND reject the Deity of the Christ. They also blaspheme one of the Names of God (the English and Greek Name of "Jesus") and attribute unto Satan what is God's when they say THE Antichrist will bare the name "Jesus," meaning they both commit the Unforgivable Sin.

As for Old Testament law, all Gentile Christians carry seventeen commands from that (the Ten Commandments and the Laws of Noah). They are not bound by any further dietary restrictions except those found in Acts 15. Messianic Jews still follow the Holy Law where Jesus did not change or abolish a provision, but Ezekiel and Watchmen are outright wrong to say that we, as Gentiles, have to abstain from pork and what not.

The absolute worst part is that both of them are cowards: I was ready to go down and throw apologetic hands like Santa Claus slapped Arius, and when I started quoting, they both blocked me.
