But why would that be the case? Why is eating meat a sin for people 4000 years ago but not today?
For health reasons, and possibly to keep Israel separate from the world. The health reasons are not applicable today because our more advanced science allows us to consume those foods safely. Christianity is a universal message, so there is also no need for Christians to be kept as a nation apart in that way.
Of course, these reasons are speculative. I do not know for sure why God did that.
