Eating animals...

[devin553344]

Not really, the Germans weren't killing poodles.

We don't eat poodles. they were killing jews. Like what is infireror to me, well jews are and so are animals.

What about animals put to death in sacrifices in the OT? Did not God want that?

That's the point, God said herb and fruit was good for meat in the beginning, so then did he want killing of animals?

..........we have beans and eggs and things that don't involve the killing of creatures that have a nervous system.

As I type this I'm eating kidney beans mixed with ground beef (chili), and I'm cooking a big pot of navy bean soup flavored with smoked turkey thigh (that's the bone floating at the top).

They die so we might live and not be put to death for our sins.

Same with Christ, he died so we can live forever.

Maybe God was making a point with allowing meat...

Was it fair an innocent Christ had to die?

Yes, it would appear that he desired the sacrifice and to share it. There are many verses that state the He loves the pleasing aroma of flesh, I believe it is over 30 times or so..

You have the right as dictated by man, but if animals ruled they might have a different say.

Can you spell those scriptures out to me. that would be interesting to me, thanks.

I've heard in these forums that guns aren't OK, but yet we eat animals. In the sense of letting living creatures live I would have to say that killing your pets and eating them is evil. Not to be rude. But we use guns to kill and stay alive, and eating of animals is the same, we kill them and eat them to stay alive. Eat and live for another day. But we don't have to, we have beans and eggs and things that don't involve the killing of creatures that have a nervous system. So things without a nervous system don't feel pain when they die. That would be plants and eggs. But things that have a nervous system do feel pain when we kill them, that would be animals.

So the question I have is how do you feel about that?

Jesus ate meat, if it works for Him, it works for me.

Think there’s bigger fish to fry. (pun intended)

in Christ, Not me.

Is there bigger fish to fry? Really, if we stopped killing sentient creatures, would that be the fish?

Sure, I can't hit them all but here is a sample:
Lev. 1:9 The priest is to burn all of it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the LORD
Lev 1:13 ..... a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the Lord.
Lev. 3:16 The priest shall burn them on the altar as a food offering, a pleasing aroma. All the fat is the LORD's.
Lev 23:18 Present with this bread seven male lambs, each a year old and without defect, one young bull and two rams. They will be a burnt offering to the LORD, together with their grain offerings and drink offerings—a food offering, an aroma pleasing to the LORD.

If your talking about children in the womb, it would be a start. About 60 million in the U.S. alone.

Shameless simply shameless.

Yes I see what your saying that God said that, but can you present 7 male lambs without defect and one bull and two rams?

This started right back in the Garden of Eden when God made a coat of skin for Adam and Eve.
Skin.............real animal skin?
Maybe...maybe snake skin, as they regularly shed theirs?
Nope, real skin.
After challenging the two, God slit the throat of an innocent lamb in the garden, ripped its bloody skin off and placed it around the shoulders of Adam and Eve!


Jesus Christ, the lamb slain from the foundation of the earth!

To most people these days, children in the womb are less important than animals.

So we kill children to survive now? that does sound a shame.

I'm not sure what you are asking here. We don't sacrifice any longer for reasons outside the thread, but that was the command and what the believers did and God desired it and its scent.

How do we know God did that?
