Bounds and Conditions
of the Word of Wisdom
Doctrine & Covenants 49:18-19,21
• And whoso forbiddeth to abstain from meats, that man should not eat the same, is not ordained of God;
• For, behold, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and that which cometh of the earth, is ordained for the use of man for food and for raiment, and that he might have in abundance. …
• And wo be unto man that sheddeth blood or that wasteth flesh and hath no need.
