Thou Shall not Kill
What part of Thou shall not kill do you not understand?
It is plain and simple! How can this be confusing to Christians?
Are you seeing the same scriptures as me?
Some scriptures are more popular than others.
We all know about the Ten Commandments " Thou Shall not Kill "
Exodus 20:13
It can't be any more clear than this! Read Proverbs 15: 17
"Better is a meal of vegetables and the love of the Name, than fattened oxen with hatred".
Eating meat fills the souls with hate. Like they say "You are what you eat".
Factory farming causes so much suffering, pain, and disease.
Just wait until we get to the New Testament. Jesus didn't eat meat!

We don't worship the same God
Mercy or Cruelty
My God doesn't stand for evil. He stands for compassion and all that is good. I will abide by God's words. If you need more proof read Acts 15:20
If cruelty is evil, and God is all-compassionate and all-merciful, then why do people believe God is an animal-killing, bloodthirsty, murderous devil? If slicing animals into pieces is permissible by God, then what horrible things could the Devil possibly do to animals? In other words, if you believe God condones the killing of animals, then the God you glorify is no better than the Devil you condemn.
Cruelty to animals is sacrilegious and desecrates the Good Lord's name. In The Gospel of the Nazirenes, Jesus agrees, "This commandment have I given you, that you love one another and all the creatures of the earth. Love is the fulfilling of the Law. Love is of the Lord, and the Lord is love. Whoso loves not, knows not the Lord. ...you are my disciples if you show mercy and love to all creatures, especially those that are weak and oppressed and suffer wrong. For the whole earth is filled with dark places of cruelty, with pain and sorrow, by the selfishness and ignorance of man." 76:5-6
So why do we continue to eat meat? God says it is unhealthy and sinful over and over again.
Disciples of God
The Beginning Genesis
Let's start from the beginning!
“God blessed them and said to them, “… Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground”. Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground – everything that has the breath of life in it – I give every green plant for food. And it was so.”
— Genesis 1:28-30
God said to rule over the animals and take care of them. They can't take care of themselves. No where did he say slaughter them and eat them. He didn't say to enslave them, but to rule over them. Sadly, we ignore his words.
Where did we go wrong? Come on Christians! His words are clear and to the point. They don't need translating. It is pretty straight forward. Any questions?
Why do Christians ignore Jesus' words " Thou shall not eat flesh" ?
Thou shall not eat flesh! Those words are all through-out the Bible so why do so called "Christians" and Jews ignore them?
Hello, my name is Melissa. I grew up eating meat, but when I became an adult I started questioning why do we eat animal flesh? I absolutely love animals. They bring so much joy. So why was I eating them? It made no sense to me. I loved my dogs more than anything. If someone hurt them, I would be devastated. I saw something very disturbing on the internet about people in Asian countries that eat dogs. I lost it. I cried for days. It was a post about people stealing beloved pets and boiling them alive so their meat would be tender. I was in shock. How could a person be so evil?
That evening, I held my doggies close and hugged them tight. I prayed. Dear Lord Why?
They have souls. They fear. They love. They play, They are beautiful creatures. God put them here for us to take care. They are our best friends. Why do these things happen?
I couldn't stop thinking about that post. What makes dogs different from any other animal? They all love. They all fear. They all play. They are all the same. We are all the same. We all want to live and be loved.
I grew up in a Christian home. Many Christians claim Jesus put animals here to eat. I beg to differ. Did they actually read their bibles and understand them as I did? I see something totally different from them. I follow Jesus, not Moses, not Abraham or any other prophet, I follow Jesus. So here goes. Jesus tells us many times through out the Bible. So why do people ignore him?
I became a vegetarian over 15 years ago and have never looked back. I don't miss eating meat.
When I used to prepare it, it grossed me out. It was disgusting so why was I Eating it? You season it with herbs to try to make it taste good. You marinade because it is gross. It doesn't taste good. The gravy is what tasted good. Not the meat. It was once a precious life. That did it.
I didn't want to be responsible for taking away anyone's life.
I was not going to stuff my face with another life just for the heck of it. It made me feel guilty.
Jesus said "Thou Shall not Kill" I knew it was the right thing to do.
Enough is enough. I know that Jesus loves all creatures and he did not put them here to suffer for people to stuff their faces.
