There is a lot of debate surrounding the topic of hunting. Some people believe that it is an ethical way to provide food for their families, while others believe that it is cruel and unnecessary. So what does God think about hunting? Let’s take a look at what the Bible has to say about this topic.

What is God’s Stance on Hunting?

The first thing we see in the Bible is that God created animals for us to enjoy. He gave us dominion over them and told us to be good stewards of His creation. This means that we are responsible for taking care of the animals and using them in a way that is beneficial to us.

In the Old Testament, we see that God allowed His people to hunt for food. However, there were certain rules that they had to follow. For example, they were not allowed to waste any of the meat and they had to be careful not to harm the animals unnecessarily.

In the New Testament, we see that Jesus was a hunter. He went out with His disciples and hunted for food. However, He also showed compassion for the animals. For example, when He saw a bird that had been caught in a trap, He set it free (Luke 12:33-34).

Final Thoughts

So what is God’s stance on hunting? It seems that He is okay with it as long as we are being responsible stewards of His creation. We should be careful not to waste the meat and we should show compassion for the animals. What do you think about hunting? Leave a comment below and let us know. Thanks for reading!
