The Created World

A key Christian belief is stewardship.

Christians believe that at creation God created the world and put us in charge of it to care for it for ourselves and for future generations.

Christians believe that the world is beautiful and reflects God’s goodness and we should try to keep it this way.

All Christians support moves to preserve the natural world.

They think that Christians should encourage MPs to make laws that protect the environment and that everyone should do their part in trying to preserve the earth.

Christians believe that God has allowed us to eat meat.

However, animals are not there to be treated cruelly.

Although animal suffering should be reduced, where it is a balance between human needs and animal needs, humans should be prioritised.
