ELLEN WHITE SAID:
"Not an OUNCE of flesh meat should enter our stomachs."
"How can those who are seeking to become pure, refined, and holy,
that they may have the COMPANIONSHIP OF HEAVENLY
ANGELS, continue to use as food anything that has so harmful an
effect on soul and body?"
"How can they take the life of GOD'S CREATURES that they may
consume the flesh as a luxury." 1905 Counsels on Diet and Food,
p.380.
THE BIBLE SAYS:
"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some
shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits ... and
commanding to ABSTAIN FROM MEATS, WHICH GOD HATH
CREATED to be received with thanksgiving ... " 1 Timothy 4:1-4
The Bible warns against seducing spirits that command us to
abstain from eating meats. Did Ellen White have a "Spirit Guide
that instructed her? She certainly did! Listen to her own words:
"...the same angel messenger stands by my side instructing me in
the VISIONS of the night as in the visions of the day." (The
heavenly being referred to was at other times spoken of as "the
angel", "my GUIDE" "my instructor", "the young man" etc.)
Messenger to the Remnant, E. G. White Estate, 1959, p.7.
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT HER VISION ABOUT
VEGETARIANISM CAME FROM A SEDUCING SPIRIT?
This is really going to shock you, in 1882, a man who claimed his
hands were under the control of spirit guides typed out a book
called "Ohaspe, the New Bible". That 833 page book, which is a
favorite of New Agers and Spiritualists, was filled with
instructions to cease from eating flesh meat in order to have the
companionship of holy angels. Here is an example:
"Verily, I say unto you: ye have not fulfilled the first law, which
is
to make clean your own corporeal bodies. Because ye have stuffed
yourself with carnal food, MY HOLY ANGELS CANNOT
APPROACH YOU...Wherein ye will not put away flesh because
ye love flesh." Book of Judgement, XVIII, 11
What a coincidence! Demonic spirits taught that man the very
same ideas that were taught to Ellen White by her spirit guide, i.e.
that through vegetarianism (Health Reform) we become pure and
fit for the "companionship of heavenly angels".
Before you shrug your shoulders and say "That was only the
Devil's counterfeit", listen to this: It is a fact that personal
instruction by spirit guides and vegetarianism have always been
indispensable parts of Eastern Mysticism. Today, those same
methods are a vital part of both New Age thinking and
Spiritualism. And yet, Mrs. White clearly states that The gospel
now includes Health Reform for all those who were to receive
eternal life. One of the requirements of Health Reform was to stop
eating flesh foods --no meat --clean or unclean.
ELLEN WHITE: "The LORD has given instruction that the
Gospel is to be carried forward; and the GOSPEL INCLUDES
HEALTH REFORM in all its phases." TSDF 88.5)
In order to be protected from deception by seducing spirits, all
visions must be strictly compared to the revelation of absolute truth
in the life and instructions of Jesus Christ. Jesus did not teach
vegetarian health reform ...
