help me create a video about lfrv for Christians--help, input, and ideas please!

hey all, i feel led to create a video to challenge my Christian brothers and sisters to consider eating lfrv/hcrv. i feel, as someone recently posted on here, that God has led me to this way of eating, and personally, now, that it is very clear to me that eating any other way (for me) is plain selfishness.

i want to give it a title that is catchy and will intrigue my Christian bros/sisses to watch it, yet doesn't turn them off. i want to list reasons why i believe we should all be eating this way...but not say it as such.

please share ideas on a title and also reasons you feel should be included.

some ideas i have had are "27 (or however many i come up with) reasons why every Christian ought to consider eating lfrv" ; or "27 excuses that Christians give for why they can't eat low-fat raw vegan--the lies exposed" (i like this one better in some ways but feel it could turn people off by people too bold...etc. i thought about doing it with a friend and having one of us say the excuse and the other respond to it, etc. or i could just list my reasons for doing this, etc.

help please! i feel like i should make this video soon, due to some recent experiences, and i value your input--thanks!!! tash

thanks, flea. i felt led to write a blog entry about it and posted it a couple days ago and the feedback has sure been interesting! haha. would love to hear what God puts in your brain! just following Him here, and sometimes people get uncomfortable--well a lot of times--because it challenges them to look at what they are doing and that is not easy! but people didn't like the prophets or Jesus or the disciples either, because they spoke truth that was hard to hear...anyway thanks for responding, much appreciated. :) tash

I'm not saying that it's wrong to eat meat or anything, but its interesting to see if you look in genesis 1:29 that God gave us every plant, that sets seeds, and every tree that gives fruit with seeds as food for humans after he made them. Also every tree in the garden except one only.

It's only after the fall into sin that God all the way into genesis 9 that God says that animals are given as food to humans also. Just speculation, but if there was no fall, maybe everyone would be on fruit, leaves and veggies :)

Anyways don't worry about what others think, as long as you are happy and feel well, and don't find that you look down on others I think you should do what you feel healthy doing.

thanks for that Biblical insight, Brian. :)

I've been thinking about something similar Brian. How in the Garden it was all plant based foods. Then when you look ahead to after His return, again it speaks of a plant based diet.

Although certain meats were given the okay, it makes me think that it was supposed to be fruits and veggies all along.

God showed me that writing from a proud heart and in an unkind way was not helpful to anyone, so i apologized for that writing. He showed me that i can present information lovingly, and that speaking condescendingly toward what they are doing does not make them want to change any more than it made me want to change.

sounds great!

Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing."

In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was therethe tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

thank you! more and more i am thinking maybe just not a great idea until i learn how to communicate this stuff in a positive way...i wrote a post and posted on facebook and then regretted it and deleted it after someone told me how obnoxious it was and really probably accomplished the exact opposite of my intentions.... :)

Good for you! Personally, I feel at peace. I haven't really been on this diet long. However, most mention clarity of mind, which can be helpful for meditation/prayer. This is one good reason to try it. Also, many people wouldn't harm animals or other living creatures on an every day basis, however unintentionally though eating meat etc. they are. As Christians you should love/respect all living things. So it fits a vegan lifestyle. (I don't have an issue with people who don't choose this lifestyle, but makes sense to me!) Also, our bodies are God's temple, and we should take care of it the best we can. Good luck in your endeavour.
