Both shrimp and cockroaches are part of the larger group called Arthropods.

Shrimp:

Shrimp are Water Avengers

COCKROACH:

Cockroaches, the unsung heroes of the land, emerge as the avengers in their own right.

Shrimp Are Not “Food”

Shrimp were never meant to grace our plates as food to be eaten.

Shrimp are bottom feeders, scavengers of waste and death, diligently devouring all that would tarnish the aquatic realm.

They are nature’s very own trash eaters, the natural landfills of the sea!

Shrimp play a vital ecological role in aquatic environments as natural cleaners and regulators.

Rather than existing as a food source, they function as living waste management systems.

Their place in underwater ecosystems is identical to organic landfills, except they are able to transmute the waste in their bodies – they consume and break down dead matter and debris that would otherwise accumulate and disrupt the balance.

Their scavenging behavior helps maintain the balance of nutrients and decomposition processes in terrestrial environments.

Similarity of the Cockroach

Cockroaches feed on decaying organic material, leaf litter, and wood, contributing to the process of cleaning up degrading plant material.

Additionally, their bodies trap atmospheric nitrogen during this process.

This makes cockroaches valuable contributors to nutrient recycling and the nitrogen cycle in their habitats.

Both Have A Radar To Locate Organic Material

Shrimp, in their underwater environment, use chemoreceptors on their antennae and appendages to detect chemical signals, helping them locate food and navigate.

Cockroaches, on the other hand, employ a combination of chemoreception and mechanoreception.

Their bodies are covered with sensitive hairs that can detect both chemical signals and vibrations, acting like a radar system that guides them to organic material, even in the darkest corners.

This combination of sensory abilities makes both shrimp and cockroaches highly efficient scavengers.

Both Are Fast & Agile

In terms of speed, cockroaches are renowned for their agility. They can run and fly at high speeds, allowing them to quickly navigate their surroundings and escape potential threats.

Shrimp showcase their impressive speed in the water.

They are adept swimmers and can move swiftly, particularly when evading danger or pursuing prey.

God says:

” These are the creatures that you may eat from all the creatures that are in the water: any creature in the water that has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers, you may eat. But whatever does not have fins and scales in the seas or in the rivers, they are an abomination to you...

THEY ARE AN ABOMINATION TO YOU, NOT GOD, YOU. YOU ARE DEVALUING YOURSELF TO EAT WASTE…

You shall regard them as an abomination; you shall not eat any of their flesh, and you shall abominate their carcasses. Everything in the water that does not have fins and scales will be an abomination to you.

Why would God say this?

Because they undermine the harmony, righteousness, and well-being of individuals and the natural order of creation.

And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all the creeping things in the waters, and of all the living creatures which are in the waters, they are defiled unto you. They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

Deuteronomy 14:9-10

Shrimp are unclean to eat and they will always be unclean.

Just as human excrement is unclean, these animals are but tools of the same caliber in their rank.

Argument: Mark 7:19

“Declared all foods clean…”

Taken out of context and translated not in accordance with the Greek Text.

The Bible clearly outlines the meaning of this matter.

In Mark 7:19, the reference pertains to the ceremonial law of washing hands.

Jesus was rebuking the Pharisees for prioritizing outward cleanliness over inner, spiritual purity.

No English translation is without imperfection. Therefore, we must earnestly seek the Truth, and it will be revealed to us.

Here is the text in its most original English translation directly from the CODEX SINAITICUS:

7:1 And there came together to him the Pharisees and some of the scribes that had come from Jerusalem.

2 And seeing some of his disciples that they ate bread with common, that is, with unwashed hands,

3 for the Pharisees and all the Jews, unless they wash their hands often, eat not. Holding the tradition of the elders;

4 And when they come from market, unless they immerse themselves, they eat not; and there are many other things that they received to hold, the immersion of cups and pitchers and brazen vessels:

5 And the Pharisees and the scribes asked him: Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with common hands?

6 And he said to them: Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written. This people honor me with their lips, but their heart is far distant from me;

7 but in vain do they offer reverence to me, teaching teachings the commandments of men. 8 Leaving the commandment of God you hold the tradition of men.

Mark 7:19

If you seek to understand the Scriptures, you will find this was never about literal food that we eat with our mouths, but the Manna from Heaven that can’t be seen with the eyes.

Overall eating trash won’t dam your soul…

Jesus came to wash all your sins. If you are saved, your soul is protected from the deeds of the flesh.

So eating shrimp won’t send you to hell, but it is not what you were intended to do.
