HEBREWS IS part of Sacred Scriptures

Of course it is but you cannot use it to say what you said. We are Catholic, we have the magisterium. We have reconcilliation as a sacrament. Jesus told Peter he had the power to bind or loosen on earth and it would be so in Heaven. Therefore

before stating things like this, learn what the Magisterium has to say about what makes a Christian forever.

Before the Magisterium (which I’ve familiar with) came into being,
I’m also familiar with what Sacred Scriptures says about “Christian”

True Christians are those who have Faith in Christ.

True Jews are those who Obey Moses and therefore God

What made you ask that?

Is Genesis the very Word of God ?

Why did God not mention Eve as much as some ask?

Would a Catholic / Christian - bother to Ask?

Why isn’t Aramaic - more or less important than any form of Hebrew?

Due to what Catholics adhere to. Your responses are really more in line with Sacred Scripture alone and if the Magisterium is not in line with that, Sacred Scripture wins out.

To answer in an informed I should be informed if you are Catholic or another Christian religion,

Is not Hebrew, these are separate languages. There were quite a few languages kicking around at the time of Christ if that is where you are heading, but a language discussion is not what this is about. Althouh you know I love language of the Old Testament discussions.

I am not sure how that responds to my prior post. I knew that in the 1950’s.

Then there must be no “true to Christ” Christians. St. Paul tells us that ll are sinners; and both Mother Theresa and Pope John Paul 2 were known for their frequent confessions.

Taking one comment out of Hebrews to make your point is called “proof texting” and is popular among some non-Catholic Christians. However, it runs afoul of Sacred Scripture when there is other Scripture which is in conflict (as I noted concerning St. Paul).

So you say
but you have to back that say so up with specific references to Magisterium,
for what you say to carry any weight…

well you will discard them if you are not Catholic, so its best to discuss this on a footing we both can stand on
 
In the original Greek, when using a modifier like ‘sacrificed to idols’, it did not just apply to a single noun but applys to all nouns of the same gender, case, and number. In this case, it would modify both ‘food’ and ‘blood’. It simply comes out separated in English due to the word order found in Greek. Another translation for the original wording could be ‘food and blood sacrificed to idols’.

In this understanding, Christ’s blood would be excluded from this prohibition.
