God has given you his blessing, Andrew, to eat whatever you please.
If you are a vegetarian --or eat only clean foods, I will never serve
you something that would offend you. That is the whole point! Ellen
White, the prophet of the SDA church, did not allow other Christians
to enjoy the blessing of eatting whatever they pleased without
pointing the finger of condemnation. Here she writes:
"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." {TSDF
78.3}
"Grains, fruits, nuts, and vegetables constitute the diet chosen for
us
by our Creator."=97Ministry of Healing, p. 296 (CD 310)
Mrs. White insisted that the gospel now included Health Reform. "The
LORD has given instruction that the Gospel is to be carried forward;
and the GOSPEL INCLUDES HEALTH REFORM in all its phases." {TSDF 88.5}
Andrew, the teaching that man must stop eating clean meats is not
found in the scriptures. In fact, it is a direct contradiction to what
is taught in the scriptures by word and example in the life of
Jesus. Not only did the Son of God eat meat, he commanded others to
eat meat during Passover.
Now Andrew, please show this newsgroup where Jesus or the apostles
ever said that we must return to the diet of the Garden of Eden.
For once and for all, let everyone understand that I am NOT critical
of what anyone eats. What I do object to is the false gospel of Health
Reform that makes vegetarianism a requirement for salvation.*

REJECT GOD." Series B, p. 205

salvation of the world." CDF p.461
