Why So Much Sickness?

“Many marvel that the human race have so degenerated, physically, mentally, and morally. They do not understand that it is the violation of God’s constitution and laws, and the violation of the laws of health, that has produced this sad degeneracy. The transgression of God’s commandments has caused His prospering hand to be removed.” (TE 17.3)

A recent medical study reported in the Mayo Clinic Proceedings online March 23, 2016, reveals that few Americans are making healthy lifestyle choices. Only 3% of Americans studied practiced the 4 beneficial health habits studied; not smoking, being physically active, maintaining appropriate percent body fat and eating foods as recommended by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. No wonder we are seeing an epidemic of disease in this country. May God bless you as you follow His health instructions.

“And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.” (Exodus 15:26).
