What people should know about clean and unclean meats? (A Bible perspective)

The Bible is accurate to call an animal or certain animals as unclean. The true God has all the right to call all his creation clean or unclean , for all of them God created: “For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.” (Isaiah 45:18 , KJV). For everything that live on this earth have a purpose. “This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations.”(Isaiah 14:26 (KJV). “For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?” (Isaiah 14:27 (KJV). God created animals not all are eligible for man's consumption. Many of them are created to help and part to balance the nature and ecosystem. One of the reason God put man to earth is to watch , groom and rule all the creatures according to God's plan and purpose. Psalms 8 we read: ⁴ What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!" God gave man a lesson and law to follow to prevent us contaminated. Leviticus 11 (KJV) ¹ And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them, Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you. And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you." Concerning winged animals: Leviticus 11: ¹³ And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,¹⁴ And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;¹⁵ Every raven after his kind;¹⁶ And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,¹⁷ And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,¹⁸ And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,¹⁹ And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and THE BAT." In the days of Noah, God blessed Them with these Law “And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.” (Genesis 9:1 (KJV). Beforehand, God told Noah everything, including the difference of clean and unclean. “Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.” ( Genesis 7:2 (KJV). So righteous men preserved this knowledge. “These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.” (Genesis 6:9 ). Just men prayed to God and give thanks for the food they eat, the clean food that was "sanctified by the Word of God or made holy in his Word or law". God told men not to defile themselves. Leviticus 11. ⁴³ Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby. ⁴⁴ For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. The last verse was quoted by Peter to teach the purpose of being "holy" of God. He understood Leviticus 11 very well. Compare 1 Peter 2:5. Nowhere in the Bible that God's servants teach contrary to the law and the prophets. Jesus teach those holy apostles the basic of the writings of the law and the prophets: “And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.” (Luke 24:44 (KJV). We could see here that the apostle Peter continued the pure teachings of Yahshua, he even declared his mind and soul (in the famous vision, which many misunderstood until now) the truth, "but Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.” (Acts 10:14 (KJV). He just think and analyze what the vision might be, then lo, God took Cornelius and sent three men in response to the vision He wants to rely. Finally the vision cleared, God said: “Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.” (Acts 10:20). Furthermore, Peter clarified the vision, "And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.” (Acts 10:28 (KJV). It is prohibited in the Jewish custom to entertain or accompany a different race to their daily routine. This is a spiritual matter and not the literal unclean animals or food. People should not be equated to unclean animals. Christians should welcome anyone who hears the Word of God, and take fellowship with them. This is the vision of Peter. What about the literal unclean things? The UNCLEAN Things are declared by Almighty as abominations and not food for mankind. It is the entrance and carrier of decease absorb by animals. Animals, most of them have a big part in ecological system created on earth. Let us see one example of bats and eating of it. " Coronavirus outbreak raises question: Why are bat viruses so deadly? Bats' fierce immune systems drive viruses to higher virulence, making them deadlier in humans Report says: Date: February 10, 2020 Source: University of California - Berkeley Summary: A study of cultured bat cells shows that their strong immune responses, constantly primed to respond to viruses, can drive viruses to greater virulence. Modelling bat immune systems on a computer, the researchers showed that when bat cells quickly release interferon upon infection, other cells quickly wall themselves off. This drives viruses to faster reproduction. The increased virulence and infectivity wreak havoc when these viruses infect animals with tamer immune systems, like humans."(science daily.com, 2020). Like bats, eating dogs and cats produce Menenggo Occemia; monkeys produce AIDS outbreak with immorality; bats in Africa produce Ebola Virus. Most deceases in humans came from eating swine with Worm Speralis in humans. These animals gave us early warning when virus is on alert. They should not be eaten all the times. It weakens and destroy human cells. So washing hands or washing this animal before eating is futile. You should not try to pray over it contradicting God and his law. You must NOT eat anything that is unclean. When the virus leave without host to produce, it will come and gone. This also apply to all unclean animals. For God created them to intake the virus depending on their capabilities or purpose. This means, that God's Word is accurate and stands still. Its prohibitions guard mankind from health trouble. Man must eat more vegetables and fruits instead. If you want meat, there are clean animals available for us.
