I am promoting a free e-book called The Abomination of Desolation: The Bible’s Position Against the Eating of Flesh. It is a 900-page study on the Bible’s position on eating meat, and contains a plethora of evidence that God requires abstinence from meat.
The book covers a wide range of topics (and in depth) such as the passage from 1 Timothy 4, the Beginning, the Patriarchs, the Law, the Prophets, the Apostles, etc. and answers any possible objections that could be raised, like “Jesus ate lamb,” “Peter was told to ‘kill and eat’” and “Noah’s sacrifice had a ‘sweet savor,’” etc. It explains how eating meat is considered adultery and whoring. It explains the mechanics of how meat and dairy cause disease. It gives a history of the Essenes, and of the Catholic Church and ancient Rome, and it refutes the notion that God delights in ritual sacrifices, especially atonement via Jesus’ crucifixion. If you are a truth-seeking Christian, a vegan Christian who is confused about the Bible’s seemingly support of sacrifice and flesh-eating, or a skeptic who has rejected the Bible for the same reason, then this book is for you.
This is a list to show you where exactly in the book you can find refutations and explanations for the passages of scripture in The Abomination of Desolation that meat-eating Christians bring up to object against vegetarianism, posted for your convenience. Not every single passage that Christians use in their defense is listed here, but you can find all of them in Appendix B on page 825 in the book.
