Among the plain and simple to read and understand, the resurrected Christ ate an animal, certainly it wasn’t because He was subject to the fall.

What sort of flying backflip of logic makes this a negation of anything I've written on this thread? Animals were permitted for food by God after the flood, correct? Unclean foods were made clean by the death and resurrection of Christ.

Will we be eating animals in Heaven, JDW? The answer is clearly no. No pain, no suffering, no death in all God's holy mountain. That's how it was and how it will be.

I’m not going to take the time to respond to each comment you made, but I will to this:

“Will we be eating animals in Heaven, JDW?”

No, I suspect that we won’t eat anything. But that doesn’t mean that as part of God’s plan for our mortal lives that He didn’t give us animals for meat and for raiment. He did, among other things like companionship, and to be used as beasts of burden. We are given dominion over the entire Earth and the fulness thereof, and we are responsible for how we exercise that dominion. We will be held accountable for how we dispatch that duty, but not only is there nothing wrong with eating meat or making use of animals, but it has at times been necessary. To say that the things on the earth are not ordained (or given, if you will) for the use of man, is false doctrine, and I’m not going to debate it further. May you have a blessed day!
