Dear Eunice:

Thank you for writing back and for all your questions. Answering them is one of the things we like to do in our ministry for it helps spread our compassionate message for God.

I’m (Frank) a retired Methodist pastor.

Sensitizing people to feel the pain and suffering of the whole of God’s corrupted creation can be as quick as some children and adults have found from just visiting our web site and seeing all the horrible things that are happening to animals. And in our more than 30 years of trying to show people God’s creation intent and heavenly will of causing no harm, there are many people who never change.

We also have found that unless people have unlimited compassion for animals and don’t eat or wear them, they still retain a hardness of heart that prevents them from fully loving God and the whole of His creation, and thus cannot fully help save the environment.

Some people have their emotions shocked very quickly, especially the children, and they become vegan. Many adults are so hard of heart that they never change. Others become vegan over a longer period of time.

We cannot “beat them over the head” to make them change. We can only love them into the kingdom, and pray that the Holy Spirit will touch them in such a way that they will become peacemaking children of God who live in His heavenly will, and do everything in their power to help free creation from its present corruption.

We hope this helps. Please let us know.

In the Love of the Lord,

Frank and Mary
