A Faith Embracing All Creatures, reviewed by Stephen Vantassel

| December 17, 2013 | no comments

For Christians who have a limited understanding of Scripture or the Christian faith, this book will have a significant impact. It will give them something to feel guilty about (i.e. eating animals) and place them on the destructive path of a works-righteousness where they can work for holiness by avoiding food declared by God as good and to be received with thanksgiving. But for mature believers, this text is little more than a theory in search of evidence.
