Health and Happiness

Most people take better care of their cars, pets and other things than they do their own bodies. Food is the fuel on which the body runs. Would you fill your car with a low grade fuel or worse still something not recommended by the manufacturer? "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."

"Hanging upon the Cross, Christ was the Gospel. This is our message (E.G.White)." Every doctrine that passes the acid test of scripture has its genesis in The Book of Genesis. Men need not search any further. Here also may true science be determined. The origin of Life, The Sabbath, Sin, The Plan of Salvation, Marriage, Time and Seasons, all these may be found within the book that opens the Scriptures. Jesus Himself makes reference to Genesis in His statement; "but from the beginning it was not so."   

Human diet has gone through a great transition since eden. When Adam came forth from the hand of the creator his food comprised fruit, grains and herbs. Today most of mankind is far from this divine plan and the direct consequence of poor eating habits is widespead disease and short lifespan. True, not every sickness or death is a direct result of poor nutrition, but it is the main contributing factor. In the third world many die of AIDS and/or malnutrition, where as in the west mortality is caused mainly by drug abuse and obesity. You do not enjoy life by killing yourself. If you can afford to eat better then the solution is in your hands or shall we say wallet. Usually the healthiest foods are also the most inexpensive. Of course there are exceptions. The choice is yours. What shall it be? Wealth or health?
