Steve Van Nattan: Ray Blanton did this in a tract form, so he did not have room to cover all the issues and Bible texts on the subject. Thus, I have taken the liberty to add my own observations in this font color. My proof texts from the Bible are in this font text color.
From a tract by Pastor Raymond Blanton
1Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: 5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. 6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained. 7 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
Introduction:
1. The seducing spirits are making great strides in many Independent Baptist
Churches today with their doctrine of vegetarianism.
2. It is the responsibility of ministers of Jesus Christ to call such heresies
to the attention of the people. (verse 6)
3. One problem is many preachers are caught up in the same seduction. Some
even market vegetarian products and herbs.
4. Herbology and vegetology are very closely related. They are found
inter-twined in the New Age Cult, Back to Eden by Jethro Kloss and
Back to the Garden by George Malkmus.
VEGETARIANISM
1. A vegetarian is:
"...a person who eats no meat, and sometimes no animal products (as milk,
eggs, etc.); esp., one who advocates a diet of only vegetables, fruits, grains,
and nuts as the proper one for all people for reasons of health or because
of principles opposing the killing of animals."1
2. A recent study in Vegetarianism Times showed that Americans are becoming vegetarians at a rate of 20,000 a week, and now total 12.4 million people. Even more people are becoming semi-vegetarians. 2
3. As a result of this massive switch over to vegetables only, many hypocrite foods are on the market. You have vegetables prepared to look and taste like various meats. There is gardenburger, garden Mexi and garden SaBlipge. The Seventh Day Adventists have had hypocrite bacon for years.
4. Jethro Kloss in his book, "Back To Eden" said, "Meats of all kind are unnatural foods. Fish, flesh, fowl and sea foods are very likely to contain numbers of germs. Meat contains bacteria... There is no ingredient in meat which cannot be produced in better quality in the products of the vegetable kingdom... The nutritive value of meat broths is practically nothing."
Steve Van Nattan: This mush head would have remained unknown to the world if his book had not been re-published with a naked woman on the front of it in a pretext of Eve in Eden.
5. According to Jethro Kloss, he was raised on a truck and nursery farm in northern Wisconsin. He had plenty of vegetables and fruit to eat. He did not mention eating any meat on the farm. Things were fine until he left home. He began living in boarding houses and hotels eating "devitalized" foods. His health failed as a result of his new diet.
Finally, abandoned by the doctors and left with no hope of living he lingered around to die.
Then he came across some books written by Ellen G. White.
"I have heard many health lectures and have read a great deal on health topics, but it was the books of Mrs. White that first opened my eyes. I have been told that Mrs. White cured herself of cancer by using Red Clover Blossoms, and she used them all during her life as a beverage. She lived to the age of eighty-four years." 3
Jethro Kloss advertised E.G. White's 7th Day Adventist writings.
6. Mr. Kloss bought a large food factory in Nashville, Tennessee. Health food and meat substitutes were prepared. He helped others get started in the vegetarian food business.
"I am especially interested in having people everywhere start health restaurants with a health food store in connection with them so that these products can be sold and served at the same time." 4
7. Lester Roloff - Jethro Kloss had his influence on the Texas evangelist. Roloff quotes Kloss in his book, "Soul, Mind & Body."
"God in His infinite wisdom, neglected nothing and if we would eat out food without trying to improve, change or refine it, thereby destroying its life-giving elements, it would meet all requirements of the body."
"Brother Roloff emphasizes, 'The secret of a live, clean body is live, clean food - fresh vegetables, juices, fruit, and nice green salads.' Noting the food habit, he writes, 'Man is the only creature on earth that cooks his food. Man has hundreds of different diseases. I do not live completely without a cook stove, but because of its overuse, it has become the murderer of the human race.'
"Unlike wild animals who live solely on raw foods, 'Man tried to build live healthy cells on dead deficient foods.' " 5
Man is the only creature on earth with enough intelligence to build a fire. God is not opposed to cooking food. He is not against eating meat, drinking cow's milk and eating butter.
In Genesis 18:1 And the LORD appeared unto him... [Abraham].
In verse 25 we find this was "...the Judge of all the earth..."
Abraham told Sarah to "make cakes upon the hearth." {vs.6}
In verse 8 they ate beef (it was a calf the young man dressed - vs. 7), bread and butter, and drank milk.
You don't get butter from goat's milk.
In Genesis 25:28 Isaac ate venison.
In verse 29, "Jacob sod pottage..." He cooked a pot of lentils (v.34). Sod is past tense of seethe. Seethe is to cook by boiling.
In Exodus 16:23 we find that blip baked and sod manna, and they did that for 40 years (Ex. 16:35).
In Leviticus 11:1-47 blip was instructed as th what meat to eat.
In Deuteronomy 32:14 they ate butter of kine. Kine is plural of cow.
Abstaining from meats and cooked foods does not come from the Bible. That is what our text is talking about: "seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils..."
"On the subject of meat-eating, Brother Roloff writes: "I do not believe meat was upon God's original menu for man. He had his first serving of meat after the fall. Neither do I believe that we will be meat eaters during the thousand-year wonderful reign of Christ down here." 5
Meat was not in God's original menu for man.
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. Genesis 1:29
God added meat to His menu for man after the flood. Man did not begin to eat meat out of rebellion of his sinful nature. It was God's choice.
Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. Genesis 9:3-4
We are not in the garden and we are not in the millennium. We must go by the Lord's instructions for us now.
Lester Roloff was opposed to canned foods, baked foods, meat medicine and surgery.
"So long as we live closer to the can opener than to Mother Nature, closer to the baker and the confectioner than to the farmer, closer to the food manufacturer than to the Almighty, closer to the butcher than to th garden and orchard, closer to the drug store than to the health food store, closer to the surgeon than to common sense;
"So long as they try to live on poisoned, overheated, preserved, scorched, pressure cooked, fried foods, food that has been altered in its chemistry,
"So long as they continue to procrastinate and postpone obtaining the flood of health that can be released to them through the daily use of nature's fresh, vibrant and vital plant juices - that long will they continue to be half alive and sick. That long will undertakers be in demand early in life; that long will they continue to sacrifice long before it's time the greatest miracle of the universe - human life." 5
8. George Malkmus - The New Age doctrine of Holistic Healing blooms more fully in the present day Back to the Garden Health Ministry.
The message of Hallelujah Acres is "How to eliminate sickness." Seminars are held in the auditorium of their ministry building. "Health Ministers" are being trained to go into "churches and communities and teach others how to eat and live that they will not get sick in the first place, or how to eliminate sickness by simply changing their diet and lifestyle." 5
Here is an unscriptural self appointed agency recruiting and training agents to teach the churches how to eliminate sickness. It is surprising how many "soldiers of the cross" are ready to fight the stove instead of sin, and preach food instead of faith.
Steve Van Nattan: Are we living less of a life today? NO. We live just as long as they did in the days of Moses: Psalm 90:10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
At this time, people are living just the same length of years, and, in fact, live expectantancy is increasing as time passes. Never in the past two thoBlipnd years minimum have so many people reached age 100. So, the notion that our eating habits are killing us before our time is a bold faced lie.
Following are a few quotes from their publication Back to the Garden.
"A Chiropractic Physician for over 7 years, Dr. Pfeifer writes: 'I have been, as has George Malkmus, an avid student of health principles, nutrition, wholistic health, etc., for the last 19 years..."
"The holistic (sometimes spelled wholistic) health movement is a part of the New Age movement. It seems that everywhere we turn we hear and read of vitamins, herbs, vegetarianism, jogging, aerobics, mind health of mind science, meditation, fitness, nutrition, natural food, positive thinking, biofeedback, visualization, relaxation techniques, yoga and on and on we could go. While all of these things are not bad, they are all included in holistic health.
Steve Van Nattan: In 1966 the Blip lifted immigration restrictions on India. At once, the gurus of India called a conference to discuss how to take the message of Hinduism to the people. The result was the wave of Hari Krishna, TM, Yoga, Karate (from Buddhism), and the ashram fad, such as that of Rajneesh. We have not seen this fad go away like bell bottomed trousers passed on (praise God!). Indeed, Al Gore, who may well be our next blip, has said boldly in his well read book that he is a follower of the goddess Gaia. Nancy Reagan, Barbara piano (we received report of this recently), and blip blip have ALL been given to seances and Shamanism.
Vegetarianism is simply one of the tenants of Hinduism. Why? Answer: To eat a cow is to eat one's grandmother, or worse. Some sects of Hinduism even carry a brush to sweep insects from their path so as not to walk on them. THIS, friends, is the foundation of ALL vegetarianism, including that of Jethro Klass, Ellen G. White, ALL Seventh Day Adventists, AND dear old Lester Roloff. They may not have seen it that way, but they were all holding hands with a circle of Hinduism. The symbol of Hinduism is the wheel of reincarnation. The only people not guilty in this regard are those who are genuinely not permitted to eat meat for health reasons. However; if they become evangelists for vegetarianism, they become evangelists for Hinduism and Vishnu Veganism.
A classic example of Hinduism in Christendom is Benny Hinn. I have heard him on TV give the key to "presenting your bodies a living sacrifice" as being "a banana a day, eat oatmeal, plenty of yogurt and walk a mile a day." This is why Hinn has been getting so vicious in his threats and curses against Bible believers lately-- He is getting caught in his own web of mysticism, and brudder, he don't like it none!
The whole concept of this movement is worship of self." 6
Others of the Chiropractic Cult are endorsing Back to the Garden in their vegetarianism.
"God's Way to Ultimate Health is written on the simple premise that the human body was created by God to be nourished and sustained in perfect health on a vegetarian diet of raw fruits and vegetables.
Steve Van Nattan: LIE! I have to give you a long text. It is a text of such eloquence that I am sure the dead head protein starved quack writing above will never figure this out until he has his first stroke. Thus...
Ecclesiastes 12:1 Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;
2 While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain:
3 In the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out of the windows be darkened,
4 And the doors shall be shut in the streets, when the sound of the grinding is low, and he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and all the daughters of musick shall be brought low;
5 Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets:
6 Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern.
7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.This is ancient literature at the pinnacle. Literary scholars tell us that Solomon's style in this book predates the antithetical method be over 1000 years. This passage is Solomon's discussion of how we age, our body stops functioning, sexual desires fade, and we go "home" to our Lord, or in Solomon's day, to the bosom of Abraham. We suffer decline in health because of the curse, and to substitute lust for perpetual health for the Gospel to people caught up in the curse and entropy, is damnation. In this regard, lester Roloff virtually destroyed his testimony with true Bible believers. That Dr. Peter Ruckman, and a number of others have exalted Roloff, simply shows how gullible some folks can be.
You will NEVER again see an item about Lester Roloff on this site unless it is to further expose his exaltation of Hinduism and the New Age mystics.
"Mankind has strayed far from that original diet handed down in Genesis 1:29. The price tag for our modern diet and lifestyle is massive health care crisis beyond compare with any time in history.
Steve Van Nattan: Mankind who obeyed God indeed "strayed" on into eating all manner of meats and moving things. This was because God COMMANDED mankind to do so in Genesis 9...
Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. Genesis 9:3-4
This heretic scumhead is blaspheming our God as he mocks at those who obeyed Jehovah God in Egypt...
Ex 12:8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.
9 Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all with water, but roast with fire; his head with his legs, and with the purtenance thereof.There goes Lester Roloff's notions above where he claimed that we cook meat too much. Baked bread and roast meat. Ah, now there is something any piano deacon in Looooooooooziana can get next to, right. And, if some late great Gringo rebel, claiming to represent the God of the Bible, thrashes you for eating too much meat... Are you ready?....... Blast him publicly, and go start a house church at once.
"Rev. George Malkmus makes a compelling case, from a Biblical perspective, of why we should return to the diet by which our body was originally intended to be nourished. This book contends that the nourishment God gave mankind in the form of fresh, living, raw fruits and vegetables in the Garden of Eden was as perfect as any other part of God's Creation.
Steve Van Nattan: LIE! See above. These boys are demon possessed, and any preacher who uses their teachings is helping Satan dumbed down the minds of the children in his church. There are nutrients NOT found anywhere else but in red meat and fish. Other nutrients may be found in vegetables, but you would have to eat a truck load to get enough for good health. Mark it down friend-- A saint who is pushing vegetarianism is demon possessed or supervised, and the effect is the same either way. Doctrine of devils. "Prove it," you say? Fine, here you are...
1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.The only ones who can make a case for not eating meat are damned sinners on their way to hell and loving it. Check out the end of verse 3. Do you see that there? Believers are GIVEN meats by GOD! Receive them with thanksgiving, and you can eat them. Eggs, frog legs, lobster, beef, pork, monkey (Congo), bee larva (Ethiopia), flying ants (I love them fried in butter just after they fly after a rain and drop their wings. Find them in Kenya). If it crawls and is not poisonous, thank God for it, then eat up folks.
Here is a thought. Hell will be filled with roast meat. HUH? Right, and I will prove it...
Revelation 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
THAT is why Hindu New Age rebel space cadets are vegetarians-- Every time they smell roast meat, they are smelling themselves burning in hell. AND that is why Bible believers can smell and eat roast meat and Bar-B-Que without a tinge of mental stress. You see, they will never feel the fire of torment in hell. Mark that one down for future use please :-)
"...On this diet, man lived an average of 912 years without sickness! Following the flood, meat and cooked foods were added to man's diet. As a result, sickness entered the human race and man't life span declined from and average of 912 years to 100 years by the time you get to the end of Genesis!" 5
Steve Van Nattan: There is not ONE shred of evidence in the Word of God that supports this explanation of why man lived a shorter time. This flake denies the curse by his neglect of it as the explanation of sickness and death. So, he can then play Mother Goose with what bits of the Word of God he has left. If you want to go on down the Yellow Brick Road with Dr. Alice and the March Hare, carry on dummy. We will NOT be going along with you.
Sin, the fall of man and the curse are treated as if they didn't exist. It seems that God is blamed for giving man meat to eat. All man's problems stem from eating meat and cooking his food, it seems. Genesis 1:29 is the vegetarian's basis. A basic principle of Bible interpretation is: Who is speaking, who is he speaking to and what is he speaking about. The vegetarian ignores the fact that God is talking to Adam before he sinned.
In order to embrace Genesis 1:29 as total instruction for man's diet requires walking over Genesis 9:3. Did God make a mistake there of was he simply mean to man?
"I am convinced that one of the greatest tragedies in history is the change in diet man made from the original raw vegetarian/fruititarian diet God gave to mankind in the Garden of Eden in Genesis 1:29 to one of meat and cooked and artificial foods. 7
Man is compared to an automobile. You talk about a cunningly devised fable:
"We seem to understand and respect the automobile engine, designed and made by man, better than we understand and respect the human body designed and made by God.
"Well, God created man, and He designed man to run on only one kind of fuel...RAW FOOD!!!" 7
Steve Van Nattan blip ONE: I think this is a great to drop the blip on these dogs of Satan: Speaking of David after bringing the Ark of the Covenant to JerBliplem,
2 Samuel 6:19 And he dealt among all the people, even among the whole multitude of
blip, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake of bread, and
a good piece of flesh,
and a flagon of wine. So all the people departed every one to his house.
Man is classified as an animal and is ridiculed for not being as wise as the beasts:
"God provided the raw materials needed to sustain life all around us in nature. If we look at the rest of the animal kingdom that God also created, we see that every other animal, with the exception of man, feeds on raw foods. Then further, when we look at the animal kingdom, except where contaminated by man, there is no sickness." 7
Satan's old lie, "ye shall be as gods" is New Age doctrine.
"We can literally control whether we are going to be sick of not and how long we are going to live by simply choosing how we live our lives." 5
Steve Van Nattan: blip TWO: Here is the way we "control" how we stay healthy....
On the day of revival and victory, after finishing the wall of JerBliplem, and after Ezra read and preached the Word of God, Nehemiah said......
Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
"With the diet God intended for mankind, our bodies can become immune to almost all disease and we can look forpiano coversd to a healthy life well past 100 years, free of disease and sickness as well as mental and emotional problems.
Steve Van Nattan: I have met many vegetarians, and I can honestly say that I never saw a group of people who, regardless of their spiritual reasons for veganism, were more given to loonie mental activity. They are unable to carry on an intelligent conversation, and the are obsessed with their small strategies of survival. They have little or no knowledge of how life is around the world, and their knowledge of Scripture is piddling at best. Now, you may have an exception for me, but that is the general picture as I have seen it. Vegans BORE me to death.
Furthermore; there is NO evidence to show that they live longer. There are many strange stories of people in other countries, like Afghanistan, who live well over 100 years, and they eat meat every day, smoke a pipe, and have a glass of wine every evening with friends. What does that prove? Nothing. Nor does the vegan apologetic, as regards longevity.
"if we would but return to God's ways of nourishing the body, we could practically eliminate sickness from the face of the earth and man would die only of accidents or old age at about 120 years (Genesis 6:3). You see, when we cook our food, we destroy its nutritionally value..." 7
Steve Van Nattan: blip THREE: How did God nourish His body?
Jesus ate the passover lamb-- Luke 22:11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
Jesus served fish for breakfast-- John 21:9 As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.
10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.
11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.
12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.
13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.blips were NOT vegetarians-- Luke 11:37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat. Jesus never refused anything he was served. Jesus ate whatever the blips served him, and the high and mighty Pharisees did NOT serve their guest boiled cabbage.
This is a terrible misuse of Scripture. God in His longsuffering gave man 120 years to repent before sending the flood in Noah's day.
If this vegetarian theory is correct, why do they not live 800-900 years? Why do they not live forever? Adam would not be dead if he hadn't sinned and eaten the wrong fruit.
A question for those back in Eden. Is there any forbidden fruit for you? There was in the garden.
"What Hallelujah Acres teaches is a radical, yet simple change in the way mankind nourishes the body. This change, if adopted by all, would practically eliminate sickness from the earth.
Steve Van Nattan: LIE! In fact, sickness and death are our destiny...
Romans 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?
25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.We will not be delivered from pain and sorrow and death in this life until we are taken into the presence of Christ and changed to be like Him, the meat eater of Galilee. What you eat has NOTHING to do with anything. The only deliverance is to become a child of God through faith in Jesus Christ so that you can one day be delivered of this physical death march by Christ Himself.
"And then, let's all catch the vision of a world without sickness and do what we can to make it happen. May God help each of us as we seek to bring this world back to Him who created it all and Back to the Garden where man's life on earth began!" 7

Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
15 Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.
16 For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.Messiah, Jesus Christ, is to eat honey and butter. We will all eat honey and butter in the Kingdom of Messiah. Honey and sugar are BOTH natural substances. They also have precisely the same chemical formula. What is done to refined sugar may or may not be bad. No research has proven either way. If you want to eat honey, go ahead. Butter is FAT from milk, and butter is good food.

Conclusion:
1. Vegetarians have entered into the arena with God. They claim their way is better than God's way. They contest God's wisdom and goodness.
2. The only Scriptures they use are misused.
3. One of the wild claims that George Malkmus makes about his 3 hour "How to Eliminate Sickness Seminar" is - "If the principles of this seminar were applied universally, sickness could practically be eliminated from the world within one year."
4. Where there is condemnation of sin, no call to repentance, no mention of faith in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, you will find "seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils" at work.
5. Independent Baptist Churches are being taught Ellen G. White's doctrine of vegetarianism.
