In the huge debate regarding the health message, this is an excellent illustration.
And I will add a text of a writer, reminding us that with so much food we have (fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts), eating animals is just a luxury:
“Again and again I have been shown that God is trying to lead us back, step by step, to His original design,—that man should subsist upon the natural products of the earth.
Vegetables, fruits, and grains should compose our diet. Not an ounce of flesh meat should enter our stomachs. The eating of flesh is unnatural. We are to return to God’s original purpose in the creation of man.
Is it not time that all should aim to dispense with flesh foods? How can those who are seeking to become pure, refined, and holy, that they may have the companionship of heavenly angels, continue to use as food anything that has so harmful an effect on soul and body? How can they take the life of God’s creatures that they may consume the flesh as a luxury? Let them, rather, return to the wholesome and delicious food given to man in the beginning, and themselves practice, and teach their children to practice, mercy toward the dumb creatures that God has made and has placed under our dominion.”
Ellen G. White, Counsels on Diet and Food, p. 380.
This was the message from the 19th century. We are living in 21st century. It’s time to act.
