Before I was a Christian I was a little confused as to whether or not I should eat animals (not that that stopped me). I was confused because I hadn’t read the human Instruction Book.

When I became a Christian I found the instructions. The Bible told me that cows were made by God to give us meat, milk, cheese, butter [as well as Greek style yogurt with honey—and of course, ice cream]. Cows were also created to give us leather for jackets, coats, bags, belts and high quality shoes.

Sheep were made to give us meat to eat, and wool for sweaters, hats, gloves and carpets. Dogs were created as man’s best friend (after women), the horse of course is for riding, giraffes just stand around for us to be amazed at the incredible creative imagination of God. And cats—well, I guess they‘re for people who don’t like dogs.

Until the world opens the Instruction Book of Holy Scripture it won’t have a clue where it came from, will have no ultimate purpose for existence, nor will it know how to find everlasting life and avoid the damnation of Hell—unless we tell them:

"How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?" (Romans 10:14).
