By Frank and Mary Hoffman - 6 Jul 2013

Dear Sam:

Thanks for your kind and encouraging comments, and we'll do our best to briefly respond to your questions.

There is no command in the Bible to kill an animal and eat his or her  flesh. The only command is to eat only plant foods (Genesis 1:29-30). Those hard of heart people are referring to a concession at best (Genesis 9), but which also comes with a curse (our companion relationship with the animals ended, and human health deteriorated). They are the ones going against God's creation and heavenly will, which Jesus commanded us to follow (Matthew 5:48 and 6:10), for there is no pain or death in heaven.

We hope this helps.

In the Love of the Lord,

Frank and Mary
