Download or read book Why Every Christian Should Be A Vegan written by Ryan Hicks and published by Ryan Hicks. This book was released on with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today much of Christendom is closely associated with the eating of animals. Some churches even have hunting and fishing trips. Meat, eggs and dairy are a staple in most professing Christian’s diets. Is any of this in line with God’s will or pleasing to Him? Could it be that so many passages of Scripture that traditions have told us are teaching the ethics of killing animals are actually stating something completely different? This book takes a Scriptural approach to the subject of humanity’s treatment of animals, what God desires from us, and what the Bible says about it all. If you have been raised thinking that animals are here to be food for humans or for our entertainment, then by reading this book you will discover many edifying truths.

Download or read book What Would Jesus REALLY Eat written by Paul Copan and published by Castle Quay Books. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until relatively recently, vegetarianism was considered a positive dietary alternative for Christians. Often considered a preference for those seeking better spiritual awareness for a season, biblical tradition still acknowledged that a plant-based diet wasn’t any more spiritual or moral than eating meat, therefore meat-eating was considered legitimate for humans; not prohibited and was even blessed by God. But, increasingly, and especially in light of the current Green movement that wants to at least limit the eating of meat, alongside the relentless calls by other secular organizations and activists to end meat-eating altogether, it is now more important than ever for people to know what the Bible and biblical tradition have to say about the subject. Within Christian circles, well-meaning people have been pressuring fellow Christians to turn from eating meat- a practice once historically understood as a Christian freedom- and are now asking them to embrace abstinence, but what many are calling “just a new bondage.” Christian leaders are warning the Christian community not to adopt a false commandment that is mostly based on secular activist’s personal convictions. Familiar choruses are now resonating throughout Christian communities: “Meat-eating isn’t compassionate.” “Animals have rights too.” “Aren’t you concerned about animal suffering?” “We should include animals into the moral community.” “Would you kill and eat your dog Lassie?” In response to this clamor, Castle Quay Books has brought together a broad group of scholars who have applied their expertise in a wide range of fields including biblical studies, theology, philosophy, resource management, communication, and generational animal farming, to write an accessible response for all Christians. Contributors to the discussion cover both sides of the debate with their host of important views. Writers include well known authors such as Dr. Walter Kaiser, Dr. Wes Jamison, and Dr. Paul Copan, as well as other well-known authors.
Download or read book Dominion written by Matthew Scully and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2003-10-08 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." --Genesis 1:24-26 In this crucial passage from the Old Testament, God grants mankind power over animals. But with this privilege comes the grave responsibility to respect life, to treat animals with simple dignity and compassion. Somewhere along the way, something has gone wrong. In Dominion, we witness the annual convention of Safari Club International, an organization whose wealthier members will pay up to $20,000 to hunt an elephant, a lion or another animal, either abroad or in American "safari ranches," where the animals are fenced in pens. We attend the annual International Whaling Commission conference, where the skewed politics of the whaling industry come to light, and the focus is on developing more lethal, but not more merciful, methods of harvesting "living marine resources." And we visit a gargantuan American "factory farm," where animals are treated as mere product and raised in conditions of mass confinement, bred for passivity and bulk, inseminated and fed with machines, kept in tightly confined stalls for the entirety of their lives, and slaughtered in a way that maximizes profits and minimizes decency. Throughout Dominion, Scully counters the hypocritical arguments that attempt to excuse animal abuse: from those who argue that the Bible's message permits mankind to use animals as it pleases, to the hunter's argument that through hunting animal populations are controlled, to the popular and "scientifically proven" notions that animals cannot feel pain, experience no emotions, and are not conscious of their own lives. The result is eye opening, painful and infuriating, insightful and rewarding. Dominion is a plea for human benevolence and mercy, a scathing attack on those who would dismiss animal activists as mere sentimentalists, and a demand for reform from the government down to the individual. Matthew Scully has created a groundbreaking work, a book of lasting power and importance for all of us.

Download or read book The Lost Religion of Jesus written by Keith Akers and published by Lantern Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus' preaching was first and foremost about simple living, pacifism, and vegetarianism; he never intended to create a new religion separate from Judaism. Moreover, Jesus' radical Jewish ethics, rather than a new theology, distinguished him and his followers from other Jews. It was the earliest followers of Jesus, the Jewish Christians, who understood Jesus better than any of the gentile Christian groups, which are the spiritual ancestors of modern Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox churches. In this detailed and accessible study, Keith Akers uncovers the history of Jewish Christianity from its origins in the Essenes and John the Baptist, through Jesus, until its disappearance into Islamic mysticism sometime in the seventh or eighth century. Akers argues that only by really understanding this mysterious and much misunderstood strand of early Christianity can we get to the heart of the radical message of Jesus of Nazareth.

Download or read book For Love of Animals written by Charles Camosy and published by Franciscan Media. This book was released on 2013-10-25 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Love of Animals is an honest and thoughtful look at our responsibility as Christians with respect to animals. Many Christians misunderstand both history and their own tradition in thinking about animals. They are joined by prominent secular thinkers who blame Christianity for the Western world's failure to seriously consider the moral status of nonhuman animals. This book explains how traditional Christian ideas and principles—like nonviolence, concern for the vulnerable, respect for life, stewardship of God's creation, and rejection of consumerism—require us to treat animals morally. Though this point of view is often thought of as liberal, the book cites several conservatives who are also concerned about animals. Camosy's Christian argument transcends secular politics. The book's starting point for a Christian position on animals—from the creation story in Genesis to Jesus's eating habits in the Gospels—rests in Scripture. It then moves to explore the views of the Church Fathers, the teachings of the Catholic Church, and current discussions in both Catholic and Protestant theology. Ultimately, however, the book is concerned not with abstract ideas, but with how we should live our everyday lives. Should Christians eat meat? Is cooperation with factory farming evil? What sort of medical research on animals is justified? Camosy also asks difficult questions about hunting and pet ownership. This is an ideal resource for those who are interested in thinking about animals from the perspective of Christian ethics and the consistent ethic of life. Discussion questions at the end of each chapter and suggestions for further reading round out the usefulness of this important work.

Download or read book The Vegan Bible written by Norval Huskey and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vegan Guide to the Holy Scriptures leads you down a path towards The Garden of Eden. That fantasy land of Peace and Loving-kindness may be our next evolutionary step. Most people realize that the way the world of Death and Disease has taken over is not right or healthy in any way. The Veganism Movement will heal mankind thus healing the world as well. The modern thinking Vegan is ready to meet and overcome any non-Vegan resistance by learning every thing connected to the purpose of Veganism. There is a spiritual side of Veganism to consider and The Vegan Bible is a great place to begin researching the real history of our Mother earth and Father God. Most people never knew that the God of The Holy Bible is Vegan. This one little fact changes the face of society from innocent meat eaters to a mob of evil dead-flesh worshipers, especially the ones that refuse to accept the truth of our Vegan world. Don't be one of them. The right way is always the best way to live and enjoy the good health and clean conscious that the Vegan way of life represents. Now you will have all of the Vegan Holy Scriptures at your fingertips to rise over anyone whom decides to support their meat eating habits by miss-quoting The Holy Scriptures. The Vegan Bible proves that God and Jesus Christ are Vegans as well as some of the Holiest Prophets. Was Cain really the cold hearted monster we were taught he was or was he just an angry Vegan unwilling to control his temper? And who is this Lord God character that keeps on trying to ruin everyone's lives? Was Jesus Christ targeted by the religious leaders of His time for taking a firm stand against animal sacrifices? Did He offer his life as a one time human sacrifice to try and save them. By threatening the financial security of those selling the sacrificial animals this put a price on his head. His teachings of Love were not only aimed at people but they were for all living creatures. His personal sacrifice did put an end to most religiously motivated animal sacrifice in the world. Before Jesus Christ there was only a blood thirsty Lord God to pay off with daily sacrifices which was for sale at the Holy Temples. Now we face a world lost in a cloud of ignorance teaching our children it is normal and right to consume dead animal flesh and this has got to stop. We must learn everything there is to know about Veganism so we can begin to heal our world and save our souls. I have dedicated the rest of my life to the study and research of the Ancient Vegan Creation Story as it is found in every copy of the Bible that exist. Proving that we have an all-loving Father God that is Vegan was only the beginning of what I have discovered. The magnitude of this one important fact has yet to reach the ears of the normal every day church goer. The implications of the facts presented in the pages of The Vegan Bible is destined to cause some uproar with the religious institutions and their religious dogma. Why was it such a crime in the dark ages to be a Christian? Did the term Christian mean Vegan and were they hunted, tortured, burned and killed for the same reason that Jesus Christ was. Have you ever seen a normal person go into a fit of rage when you tried to explain Veganism to them? The Vegan Bible will help answer many religious questions and provide morally correct Vegan answers. It used to be just a matter of Faith but now the Medical Science is proving our Vegan heritage. Veganism is growing and it will influence the greater populations of every country. I hope that you are ready for The Vegan Apocalypse. Thank You.

Download or read book The Lord Christ Jesus Was a Vegan written by Saba and published by . This book was released on 2006-09 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world today is currently witnessing the most devastating breakdowns in the history of humanity. Many of our marriages and families are broken. Many of our nations and governments are also broken. We, as individuals, are broken. I sincerely doubt that there is anyone today who is not facing some type of battle either in themselves, their families, or in their country. Our children especially, seem to be under the most severe attack. There are many today who don't know how to fight back. They don't know where to turn, or how to begin to fix the brokenness in their lives. This book is about fighting back. It is also about the safe resting place that can be found within the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts of Jesus and His Mother Mary. The Divine Hearts are our "only" place of refuge in these tumultuous times in which we are living. It is only within those hearts that we can find the quiet comfort that so many of us are thirsting for. It is only within those hearts that we can be prepared for the battle to regain our families, our nations, and our churches. Our Lord and His Mother have provided us with the way. Beyond Faith and Love there is HOPE.
