The Hidden Love of Jesus For the Animals
Animals - The Defenseless Victims
Prophetic Words Against Biblical Sacrifices and Against Eating Meat
For whole pages Bible readers of Moses are led to believe that God wanted animals to be tortured and killed for Him. These texts were cleverly manipulated, so that the faithful believe that God is a perverse, brutal, unloving and wrathful being, which has joy in the brutal and senseless carnage of animals. The one who believes this is the word of God, as the great institutions would have one believe, has fallen for the darkening of the truth. However, the one who explores the prophets can still find, even in the Bible, many a true word of God, which apparently slipped by the "correctors" and falsifiers of the scriptures.
Hosea
"Though they offer choice sacrifices, though they eat flesh, the Lord does not accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish their sins ..."
Hosea 8:13
Isaiah
"Whoever slaughters an ox is like one who kills a human being; whoever sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog’s neck; whoever presents a grain offering, like one who offers swine’ s blood; whoever makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol. They have chosen their own ways and in their abominations they take delight."
Isaiah 66:3
Amos
"I hate, I despise your festivals, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies. Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; and the offerings of well-being of your fatted animals I will not look upon. Take away from me the noise of your songs; I will not listen to the melody of your harps. But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream."
Amos 5:21-24
Jeremiah
"Of what use to me is frankincense that comes from Sheba, or sweet cane from a distant land? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor are your sacrifices pleasing to me."
Jeremiah 6:20
Isaiah
"What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices? Says the Lord; I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed beasts; I do not delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of goats. When you come to appear before me, who asked this from your hand?"
Isaiah 1:11-12
Micah
"With what shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before God on high? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God."
Micah 6:6-8
Isaiah
"When you stretch out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your hands are full of blood. Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean; remove the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil; learn to do good; seek justice, rescue the oppressed ..."
Isaiah 1:15-17
Hosea
"For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings."
Hosea 6:6
Jeremiah
"For in the day that I brought your ancestors out of the land of Egypt, I did not speak to them or command them concerning burnt offerings and sacrifices."
Jeremiah 7:22
"If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world and all that is in it is mine. Do I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?"
Psalm 50:12-13
"Do not be among winebibbers, or among gluttonous eaters of meat."
