In Reference to: 11 September 2016 - Heavenly Instruction
Hi Dana:
Let’s begin with your reference to the lack of animal kindness, for it really is part of the basic problem of what we are referring to.
We are commanded in love the Lord God with all our heart, soul, and mind. If we really do this, they we also must love the whole of God’s creation, for He lovingly created it from His heavenly will (He spoke it into existence). The animals are also part of His creation, and should be loved and protected. Not doing this shows that the person doesn’t completely love God, for they also love part of this corrupt world.
It’s this hardness of heart that is so prevalent in the churches today.
We cannot be perfect as our Father in heaven is perfect, and pray for His heavenly will to be done of earth and help make it happen unless we are filled with heavenly love, compassion, and empathy for the whole of God’s creation.
The unfortunate problem is that most churches don’t teach this or live like it. Instead of conforming to God’s heavenly will, they follow the corrupt ways of this world, which includes the horrible treatment of animals.
We cannot have one foot in heaven and one foot in the world.
We hope this helps.
In the Love of the Lord,
Frank and Mary
