ANNOUNCER: THIS PRESENTATION
IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE
00:00:02.23\00:00:04.37
FRIENDS OF THE
AMAZING FACTS MINISTRY.
00:00:04.40\00:00:07.07
DOUG BATCHELOR: IN
1629 THE EMPEROR OF INDIA,
00:00:08.90\00:00:11.34
SHAH JAHAN, WENT ON A MILITARY
CAMPAIGN TO CRUSH A REBELLION
00:00:11.37\00:00:15.08
IN HIS KINGDOM.
00:00:15.11\00:00:16.71
EVEN THOUGH SHE
WAS ILL AND PREGNANT,
00:00:16.75\00:00:18.75
HIS WIFE JOINED HIM
ON THE GRUELING JOURNEY.
00:00:18.78\00:00:21.38
ON THE WAY SHE COLLAPSED,
GAVE BIRTH TO THEIR DAUGHTER,
00:00:21.42\00:00:24.32
AND THEN DIED.
00:00:24.35\00:00:25.79
THE BEAUTIFUL EMPRESS
WAS ONLY 39 YEARS OLD.
00:00:25.82\00:00:28.66
BESIDE HIMSELF WITH GRIEF, THE
EMPEROR CARRIED HIS WIFE'S BODY
00:00:28.69\00:00:32.19
HOME AND CONSTANTLY
WORE WHITE ROBES OF MOURNING.
00:00:32.23\00:00:35.40
WHEN HE FINALLY
CAME OUT OF SECLUSION,
00:00:35.43\00:00:37.43
HE ORDERED THAT A
BEAUTIFUL PALACE BE BUILT
00:00:37.47\00:00:39.70
FOR HIS BELOVED WIFE.
00:00:39.73\00:00:41.24
IT WAS NEVER TO
BE CALLED A TOMB;
00:00:41.27\00:00:43.14
IT WAS TO BE
CALLED BY THE INDIAN WORD,
00:00:43.17\00:00:45.27
MAHAL, MEANING PALACE.
00:00:45.31\00:00:47.91
THE PALACE THAT THE
EMPEROR BUILT IS ONE OF THE MOST
00:00:47.94\00:00:50.95
BREATHTAKING
STRUCTURES EVER BUILT.
00:00:50.98\00:00:53.18
A DAZZLING WONDER OF
MARBLE AND JEWELS KNOWN TODAY
00:00:53.21\00:00:57.32
AS THE TAJ MAHAL.
00:00:57.35\00:00:58.85
THIS MAJESTIC TOMB IS AN ABIDING
MEMORIAL OF THE EMPEROR'S
00:00:58.89\00:01:03.06
LOVE FOR HIS WIFE.
00:01:03.09\00:01:04.39
DID YOU KNOW THAT GOD HAS
ALSO GIVEN BELIEVERS AN ETERNAL
00:01:04.43\00:01:08.40
MEMORIAL OF HIS
CREATIVE POWER OF LOVE?
00:01:08.43\00:01:11.83
IT'S BUILT NOT IN
MARBLE BUT IN TIME,
00:01:11.87\00:01:15.24
AND IT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
00:01:15.27\00:01:17.14
SO, LET'S DIVE INTO TOGETHER
NOW AND EXPLORE THIS IMPORTANT
00:01:17.17\00:01:20.58
AND FASCINATING SUBJECT.
00:01:20.61\00:01:22.61
DOUG: WE'RE GOING TO START WITH
00:01:26.58\00:01:28.05
A STORY THAT YOU FIND
IN THE BIBLE IN THE BOOK
00:01:28.08\00:01:32.12
OF DANIEL - DANIEL
CHAPTER 1 - AND IT'S CALLED
00:01:32.15\00:01:35.39
BABYLON'S BUFFET AND
THIS IS BASED UPON DANIEL 1,
00:01:35.42\00:01:40.46
VERSES 1 THROUGH 21
- IT'S A WHOLE CHAPTER.
00:01:40.50\00:01:42.70
NOW DANIEL IS A BOOK THAT
DEALS A LOT WITH PROPHECY, BUT
00:01:42.73\00:01:45.53
IT'S INTERESTING HOW THE BOOK
OF DANIEL BEGINS WITH A TEST.
00:01:45.57\00:01:50.51
ABOUT 500 YEARS BEFORE CHRIST,
KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR INVADED
00:01:50.54\00:01:53.84
JERUSALEM, AND ON HIS
FIRST ATTACK ON THE CITY
00:01:53.88\00:01:58.15
HE CARRIED AWAY
THOUSANDS OF PRISONERS FROM
00:01:58.18\00:02:01.48
JERUSALEM TO BABYLON
AND AMONG THOSE HE CARRIED
00:02:01.52\00:02:04.82
AWAY WERE SOME OF
THE PRINCES OF JERUSALEM.
00:02:04.85\00:02:08.89
SOME OF THEM, THE BIBLE
FORETOLD, WERE DESCENDANTS OF
00:02:08.92\00:02:11.86
KING HEZEKIAH. AND
THEY WERE TAKEN AND THEY
00:02:11.89\00:02:14.76
WERE EDUCATED IN
THE PALACE OF BABYLON.
00:02:14.83\00:02:18.23
AND THE KING SAID,
'LOOK, WE'RE GOING TO TEACH YOU
00:02:18.27\00:02:19.83
THE LANGUAGE OF THE
BABYLONIANS' - HE TOOK THE
00:02:19.87\00:02:21.40
BRIGHTEST AND THE BEST
LOOKING OF ALL THE ROYAL
00:02:21.44\00:02:24.71
CHILDREN BACK TO BABYLON
AND HE SAID, 'I'M GOING TO
00:02:24.74\00:02:28.24
TRAIN YOU IN ALL THE
SCIENCES OF BABYLON,' -
00:02:28.28\00:02:31.45
WHICH WAS THE MOST
SOPHISTICATED PLACE IN THE
00:02:31.48\00:02:33.18
WORLD AT THE TIME -
'AND AFTER THREE YEARS, THOSE
00:02:33.21\00:02:36.62
WHO PASSED THE TEST -
THE CREAM OF THE CROP - WILL
00:02:36.65\00:02:38.99
STAND BEFORE ME AND THEY
WILL BE REPRESENTATIVES TO
00:02:39.02\00:02:42.22
THESE OTHER NATIONS.'
NEBUCHADNEZZAR WAS REALLY
00:02:42.26\00:02:45.69
A VERY SMART LEADER AND
HE HAD GREAT COUNSELORS AND
00:02:45.73\00:02:47.96
THIS WAS A WISE PLAN. SO
AMONG SOME OF THE THOUSANDS
00:02:48.00\00:02:51.50
THAT WERE CARRIED FROM JERUSALEM
WERE FOUR HEBREW YOUNG MEN.
00:02:51.53\00:02:55.14
THEIR JEWISH NAMES WERE
DANIEL, HANANIAH, MISHAEL,
00:02:55.17\00:02:59.34
AND AZARIAH.
BABYLONIAN NAMES WERE
00:02:59.37\00:03:02.38
BELTESHAZAR,
SHADRACH, MESHACH, AND ABEDNEGO.
00:03:02.41\00:03:06.98
AND DANIEL, SHADRACH,
MESHACH, AND ABEDNEGO WENT
00:03:07.02\00:03:11.39
TO THIS SCHOOL, BUT
THEN THEY FOUND OUT THAT THEY
00:03:11.42\00:03:13.72
WERE GOING TO BE
REQUIRED TO EAT FROM THE ROYAL
00:03:13.76\00:03:15.59
CAFETERIA. NOW
MOST CAPTIVES WOULD
00:03:15.62\00:03:17.19
HAVE BEEN THRILLED.
ALL THE OTHER STUDENTS
00:03:17.23\00:03:19.33
FROM THE OTHER PARTS OF
THE WORLD NEBUCHADNEZZAR
00:03:19.36\00:03:21.03
CONQUERED - THEY
WERE THRILLED THAT THEY
00:03:21.06\00:03:22.43
GOT TO EAT AT THE
BABYLONIAN BUFFET.
00:03:22.46\00:03:25.43
IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
THE BEST FOOD IN THE WORLD,
00:03:25.47\00:03:28.47
BUT RIGHT AWAY DANIEL
AND HIS FRIENDS REALIZED THEY
00:03:28.50\00:03:30.97
COULDN'T EAT THAT
BECAUSE THERE WAS FOOD IN THERE
00:03:31.01\00:03:32.77
THAT GOD HAD
DESIGNATED AS UNCLEAN.
00:03:32.81\00:03:36.08
AND IT SAYS IN DANIEL
1, VERSE 8, "BUT DANIEL
00:03:36.11\00:03:39.31
PURPOSED IN HIS HEART
THAT HE WOULD NOT DEFILE
00:03:39.35\00:03:42.48
HIMSELF WITH THE PORTION
OF THE KING'S DELICACIES,
00:03:42.52\00:03:46.22
NOR WITH THE WINE WHICH
HE DRANK;" - SO DANIEL WENT
00:03:46.25\00:03:49.62
TO THE CHIEF OF THE
EUNUCHS, WHICH WAS IN
00:03:49.66\00:03:51.39
CHARGE OF THE
PREPARATION AND THEIR TRAINING,
00:03:51.43\00:03:53.86
AND HE SAID, 'LET
US JUST EAT VEGETABLES.
00:03:53.90\00:03:56.97
GIVE US TEN DAYS.' AND
YOU'LL FIND THE KING JAMES
00:03:57.00\00:03:59.00
WORD THERE IS 'PULSE' -
SOME OF YOUR TRANSLATIONS
00:03:59.03\00:04:01.44
IT JUST SAYS VEGETABLES
- AND HE SAID, 'OH, I CAN'T
00:04:01.47\00:04:04.24
DO THAT.' - HE SAYS -
'THE KING'S GOING TO LOOK AT
00:04:04.27\00:04:05.87
YOU AND SAY, 'HOW COME
THESE YOUNG MEN ARE SICK?'
00:04:05.91\00:04:07.71
AND I'M GOING TO SAY,
'WELL, THEY'RE NOT EATING THE
00:04:07.74\00:04:09.24
FOOD THAT YOU PROVIDED.' 'WHAT?
00:04:09.28\00:04:10.81
MY FOOD WASN'T
GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM?'
00:04:10.85\00:04:12.51
AND HE SAID, 'HE'LL TAKE
MY HEAD OFF.' DANIEL SAID,
00:04:12.55\00:04:14.62
'YOU TEST US. GIVE US TEN DAYS.
00:04:14.65\00:04:16.48
IF WE DON'T LOOK OKAY,
FINE.' SO, FOR TEN DAYS
00:04:16.52\00:04:21.29
THEY ATE NOTHING BUT VEGETABLES.
00:04:21.32\00:04:24.36
THEY ATE VEGETABLE STEW
AND A VEGETARIAN DIET - DRANK
00:04:24.39\00:04:27.93
WATER - AND THE BIBLE
SAYS - DANIEL 1, VERSE 15 -
00:04:27.96\00:04:32.27
"AND AT THE END OF TEN
DAYS THEIR COUNTENANCES
00:04:32.30\00:04:35.17
APPEARED FAIRER AND
FATTER IN FLESH THAN ALL THE
00:04:35.20\00:04:38.84
CHILDREN WHICH DID EAT
THE PORTION OF THE KING'S
00:04:38.87\00:04:40.98
MEAT." THEY WERE HEALTHIER THAN
00:04:41.01\00:04:43.65
THOSE WHO WERE EATING
FROM THE CAFETERIA OF BABYLON.
00:04:43.68\00:04:46.18
NOW WHY DOES THE
BIBLE INCLUDE THIS STORY?
00:04:46.21\00:04:50.59
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT
WHEN NEBUCHADNEZZAR HAD THEM
00:04:50.62\00:04:52.32
TESTED - PROBABLY BY
HIMSELF AS WELL AS HIS
00:04:52.35\00:04:55.42
OTHER WISE MEN IN THE
KINGDOM - THEY FOUND THAT
00:04:55.46\00:04:58.39
AMONG ALL THE
CAPTIVES THAT HAD BEEN TRAINED,
00:04:58.43\00:05:00.80
DANIEL, HANANIAH, MISHAEL,
AND AZARIAH WERE TEN TIMES
00:05:00.83\00:05:05.10
WISER - TEN TIMES WISER -
THAN ANY OF THE OTHERS WHO
00:05:05.13\00:05:10.11
HAD TRAINED.
BEING A CHRISTIAN IS NOT
00:05:10.14\00:05:13.17
JUST ABOUT A
CHANGE IN YOUR THINKING.
00:05:13.21\00:05:15.94
BEING A CHRISTIAN IS AN
ENTIRE TRANSFORMATION AND
00:05:15.98\00:05:20.32
'WHATEVER YOU EAT AND
WHATEVER YOU DRINK, DO ALL
00:05:20.35\00:05:22.68
TO THE GLORY OF GOD.'
IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE
00:05:22.72\00:05:24.89
WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR BODY.
00:05:24.92\00:05:26.35
YOUR BODY IS THE
TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:05:26.39\00:05:29.49
AND A TRUTH THAT HAS
BEEN LOST IN RECENT YEARS TO
00:05:29.52\00:05:33.93
CHRISTIANITY - BOTH
PROTESTANTS AND CATHOLICS
00:05:33.96\00:05:37.43
AND EVANGELICALS - IS A
VERY CLEAR BIBLICAL TEACHING
00:05:37.47\00:05:40.90
THAT WE ARE TO
TAKE CARE OF OUR BODIES.
00:05:40.94\00:05:44.44
WE ARE TO BE CAREFUL.
WE ARE TO USE SELF-CONTROL
00:05:44.47\00:05:47.01
AND ESPECIALLY IS
THAT IMPORTANT WHEN WE'RE
00:05:47.04\00:05:49.34
LIVING IN A SOCIETY THAT
IS DROWNING IN ABUNDANCE.
00:05:49.38\00:05:52.88
#1 - WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL
DIET THAT GOD DESIGNED FOR
00:05:52.91\00:05:55.98
HUMANS IN THE BEGINNING
- WE'RE GOING ALL THE WAY
00:05:56.02\00:05:58.02
BACK TO GENESIS NOW
- FIRST CHAPTER IN THE
00:05:58.05\00:06:00.76
BIBLE, GENESIS 1:29, AND
GOD SAID, 'BEHOLD, I HAVE
00:06:00.79\00:06:05.76
GIVEN YOU EVERY HERB
BEARING SEED,'" - AND
00:06:05.79\00:06:09.66
THAT'S TALKING
ABOUT EVERY PLANT.
00:06:09.70\00:06:11.63
AND IT GOES ON TO SAY,
"...AND EVERY TREE, IN THE
00:06:11.67\00:06:14.67
WHICH IS THE FRUIT OF A
TREE YIELDING SEED; TO YOU
00:06:14.70\00:06:20.24
IT SHALL BE FOR MEAT.'" -
AND THAT WORD 'MEAT' THERE
00:06:20.28\00:06:23.11
IS THE OLD ENGLISH
WORD. IT MEANS 'FOOD' - IT'S
00:06:23.14\00:06:25.21
LIKE THE MEAT OF A NUT -
IT JUST MEANS 'THE FOOD'.
00:06:25.25\00:06:27.35
SO THE ORIGINAL DIET
FOR ADAM AND EVE WAS WHAT?
00:06:27.38\00:06:31.05
FRUITS, GRAINS, NUTS -
IT WAS A 'FRUITARIAN' DIET.
00:06:31.09\00:06:36.16
THEY PROBABLY DIDN'T
EVEN COOK ANY FOOD BACK THERE.
00:06:36.19\00:06:38.49
HOW LONG DID GOD INTEND
FOR ADAM AND EVE TO LIVE
00:06:38.53\00:06:41.10
WHEN HE FIRST
MADE THEM? >>FOREVER.
00:06:41.13\00:06:42.80
>>FOREVER. AND
THEN, AFTER SIN, GOD
00:06:42.83\00:06:48.37
ADDED ONE MORE THING TO
THE DIET BECAUSE HE SAID,
00:06:48.40\00:06:50.51
'YOU CAN'T EAT FROM THE
TREE OF LIFE ANY LONGER.'
00:06:50.54\00:06:52.84
AFTER ADAM AND EVE
SINNED IT SAYS, 'WHAT
00:06:52.87\00:06:54.48
SUPPLEMENTAL FOOD DID
GOD THEN ADD TO THEIR DIET?'
00:06:54.51\00:06:57.71
GENESIS 3:18, IT
SAYS, "...THOU SHALT EAT THE
00:06:57.75\00:07:02.92
HERB OF THE FIELD."
THAT MEANS THE VEGETABLE.
00:07:02.95\00:07:06.52
BUT A VEGETABLE IS
TECHNICALLY - OH, LET ME
00:07:06.55\00:07:10.16
GIVE YOU A TEST AND FIND
OUT - FRUIT OR VEGETABLE -
00:07:10.19\00:07:14.20
BANANA? >>FRUIT.
00:07:14.20\00:07:15.80
>>FRUIT. APPLE? >>FRUIT.
00:07:15.83\00:07:17.87
>>ZUCCHINI? >>VEGETABLE.
00:07:17.90\00:07:20.37
>>FRUIT. EGGPLANT? >>VEGETABLE.
00:07:20.40\00:07:24.91
>>FRUIT. BRUSSELS SPROUTS?
00:07:24.94\00:07:28.38
>>VEGETABLE. >>INEDIBLE.
00:07:28.41\00:07:30.78
(LAUGHTER) BRUSSELS SPROUTS
ARE ACTUALLY A VEGETABLE.
00:07:30.81\00:07:36.05
CELERY? >>VEGETABLE.
00:07:36.08\00:07:37.99
>>IT'S A VEGETABLE. POTATO?
00:07:38.02\00:07:40.42
>>VEGETABLE. >>IT'S A VEGETABLE.
00:07:40.46\00:07:41.99
SO ANY PART OF THE
PLANT OTHER THAN THE SEED AND
00:07:42.02\00:07:44.26
THE PRODUCT OF THE FLOWER
- A FRUIT IS THE PRODUCT OF
00:07:44.29\00:07:46.29
THE FLOWER - IS GOING
TO BE A VEGETABLE - THE
00:07:46.33\00:07:49.16
STALK, THE LEAVES, THE
FLOWERS - THOSE ARE ALL
00:07:49.20\00:07:50.67
CONSIDERED TO BE VEGETABLES.
00:07:50.70\00:07:52.27
THE ROOT - YOU KNOW,
THEY'RE TUBERS - A POTATO.
00:07:52.30\00:07:56.67
SO HE ADDED THAT TO
THE DIET AND THERE WERE ALL
00:07:56.71\00:07:58.31
KINDS OF IMPORTANT
ENZYMES AND THINGS IN THERE.
00:07:58.34\00:08:01.31
SO THERE ARE BENEFITS -
THERE'S NO QUESTION THAT
00:08:01.34\00:08:03.81
THERE ARE BENEFITS TO
EATING A VEGETABLE-BASED DIET.
00:08:03.85\00:08:06.65
FOR AWHILE, PEOPLE
THOUGHT THAT SEVENTH-DAY
00:08:06.68\00:08:08.65
ADVENTISTS WERE KOOKS,
BUT I DON'T KNOW IF YOU READ
00:08:08.68\00:08:11.09
THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC
A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO.
00:08:11.12\00:08:13.59
IT SAID - THEY PICKED
OUT THE THREE LONGEST LIVING
00:08:13.62\00:08:16.39
PEOPLE IN THE
WORLD. DID YOU KNOW THAT?
00:08:16.42\00:08:19.16
YOU CAN GO LOOK THIS
UP. NUMBER 1, THERE WERE
00:08:19.19\00:08:21.20
PEOPLE IN SARDINIA
IN - OFF OF ITALY IN THE
00:08:21.23\00:08:24.60
MEDITERRANEAN, THE
PEOPLE OF OKINAWA, AND THE
00:08:24.63\00:08:28.44
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS,
PRINCIPALLY IN THE LOMA
00:08:28.47\00:08:30.71
LINDA AREA WHERE THEY
HAVE A UNIVERSITY AND THERE'S
00:08:30.74\00:08:32.44
A LARGE CONCENTRATION.
THEY STUDIED THEM.
00:08:32.47\00:08:34.31
THEY LIVED THE LONGEST OF
ANY PEOPLE GROUPS IN THE WORLD.
00:08:34.34\00:08:38.11
AND WHEN THEY ASKED WHY
DO THESE PEOPLE LIVE LONGER,
00:08:38.15\00:08:40.38
THEY SAID, 'WELL,
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS -
00:08:40.42\00:08:42.38
IT'S THE COMMUNITY, THE
REST FROM THE SABBATH, AND
00:08:42.42\00:08:44.65
THEY'RE LARGELY - NOT
ENTIRELY, BUT LARGELY - A
00:08:44.69\00:08:47.36
VEGETARIAN
LIFESTYLE - HEALTHY LIFESTYLE.
00:08:47.39\00:08:49.89
AND SO, WHAT WE'RE
SHARING WITH YOU IS NOT SOME
00:08:49.92\00:08:52.63
RELIGIOUS BELIEF, THIS
IS HARD, SCIENTIFIC FACT -
00:08:52.66\00:08:55.80
THAT IF YOU EAT - THE
CLOSER TO THE BIBLICAL
00:08:55.83\00:08:59.03
DIET THAT GOD PRESCRIBED,
THE LONGER YOU'RE GOING TO
00:08:59.07\00:09:03.41
LIVE, THE BETTER
YOU'RE GOING TO FEEL, THE LESS
00:09:03.44\00:09:04.97
DISEASE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE.
00:09:05.01\00:09:07.41
IN THE MANUAL HE TELLS
YOU WHAT THE IDEAL DIET IS FOR
00:09:07.44\00:09:09.74
MAN, AND FOLLOWING THAT
DIET WILL CERTAINLY MAKE
00:09:09.78\00:09:13.11
YOU FEEL BETTER.
I'LL SHARE A LITTLE MORE
00:09:13.15\00:09:14.68
PERSONALLY WITH
YOU AS WE PROCEED.
00:09:14.72\00:09:17.25
WHAT DOES THE BIBLE
SAY, MORE SPECIFICALLY, ABOUT
00:09:17.29\00:09:19.32
EATING? ARE THERE SOME MAMMALS -
00:09:19.35\00:09:21.12
SOME FOODS THAT ARE CLEAN
AND SOME THAT ARE UNCLEAN?
00:09:21.16\00:09:23.53
YOU KNOW, DANIEL SAID
HE WOULDN'T DEFILE HIMSELF
00:09:23.56\00:09:26.36
WITH THE MEAT WHICH
THE KING'S SERVANTS WERE
00:09:26.39\00:09:28.13
EATING. WHAT MAMMALS DOES GOD
00:09:28.16\00:09:30.07
PERMIT HUMANS TO
EAT? THAT'S QUESTION #9.
00:09:30.10\00:09:32.80
YOU LOOK IN LEVITICUS
11, VERSE 3, IT TELLS US THAT
00:09:32.83\00:09:36.14
THERE'S TWO CRITERIA
THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ON A
00:09:36.17\00:09:38.14
MAMMAL THAT IS
GOING TO BE EATEN.
00:09:38.17\00:09:39.71
IT SAYS, WHATEVER DOES WHAT?
00:09:39.74\00:09:41.64
PARTS THE HOOF, AND IS
CLOVEN FOOTED - AND CHEWS
00:09:41.68\00:09:46.65
THE CUD - THESE ARE
CLEAN. NOW, THAT WOULD MEAN THAT
00:09:46.68\00:09:50.92
GOAT, SHEEP, DEER,
ELK, MOOSE, THESE THINGS ARE
00:09:50.95\00:09:57.13
WHAT YOU WOULD
CALL 'CLEAN' ANIMALS.
00:09:57.16\00:09:59.56
BUT THEN HE GOES ON TO
SAY SOME THINGS THAT MAY CHEW
00:09:59.59\00:10:02.23
THE CUD - LIKE A CAMEL - BUT
IT DOESN'T HAVE A CLOVEN HOOF.
00:10:02.26\00:10:04.40
IT NEEDED BOTH
CRITERIA - THEY'RE UNCLEAN.
00:10:04.43\00:10:07.84
I KNOW SOME OF YOU ARE
PROBABLY THINKING, 'OH,
00:10:07.87\00:10:09.44
DOUG, YOU TELL ME I
HAVE TO GET RID OF MY CAMEL
00:10:09.47\00:10:11.07
STEAK TONIGHT AFTER THE
PROGRAM.' (LAUGHTER) YES.
00:10:11.11\00:10:13.88
THAT'S WHY JESUS
MADE FUN OF THE PHARISEES.
00:10:13.91\00:10:16.34
HE SAID, 'YOU'RE HYPOCRITES.
00:10:16.38\00:10:17.95
YOU STRAIN A GNAT' -
WHAT HE MEANT BY THAT WAS THEY
00:10:17.98\00:10:20.72
USED TO POUR THEIR
WATER THROUGH THESE STRAINING
00:10:20.75\00:10:22.85
CLOTHS - THEY SAID,
'LEST WE HAVE A GNAT IN THERE
00:10:22.88\00:10:25.65
AND IT'S UNCLEAN.' THEY
WOULD STRAIN THEIR WATER
00:10:25.69\00:10:28.29
TO PREVENT EATING A
GNAT, BUT WHEN NO ONE WAS
00:10:28.32\00:10:30.69
LOOKING THEY'D EAT A
CAMEL STEAK, WHICH WAS UNCLEAN,
00:10:30.73\00:10:32.43
BIBLICALLY. HE
SAYS, 'YOU STRAIN A
00:10:32.46\00:10:33.76
GNAT AND YOU SWALLOW A CAMEL.
00:10:33.80\00:10:35.16
YOU EVER HEARD
THAT EXPRESSION BEFORE?
00:10:35.20\00:10:36.50
THAT'S WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT.
00:10:36.53\00:10:38.13
HE'S SAYING 'YOU'RE HYPOCRITES.
00:10:38.17\00:10:39.60
YOU KNOW CAMEL IS UNCLEAN
BUT YOU'RE SO AFRAID OF A
00:10:39.63\00:10:41.37
LITTLE GNAT AND WHEN
NO ONE'S LOOKING YOU EAT
00:10:41.40\00:10:43.00
CAMEL STEAK.' IF
YOU'RE GOING TO EAT MEAT, IT
00:10:43.04\00:10:46.98
NEEDS TO HAVE
THOSE TWO CRITERIA -
00:10:47.01\00:10:49.21
BE CLOVEN HOOFED
AND CHEW THE CUD.
00:10:49.24\00:10:52.18
NOW THERE ARE SOME OF
YOU WHO ARE THINKING, 'WELL,
00:10:52.21\00:10:53.52
PASTOR DOUG, BUT DIDN'T
- AREN'T HUMANS DESIGNED TO
00:10:53.55\00:10:55.48
EAT MEAT AND ISN'T THAT
WHY GOD GAVE US THESE, YOU
00:10:55.52\00:10:57.59
KNOW, CANINE TEETH FOR THE
RIPPING AND TEARING OF MEAT.
00:10:57.62\00:11:00.32
SEE THIS
CHARACTER ON THE SCREEN?
00:11:00.36\00:11:07.10
HE'S GOT CANINE TEETH
TOO. HE'S A VEGETARIAN.
00:11:07.13\00:11:10.63
SO IT'S JUST - THERE'S
ALL KINDS OF MYTHS OUT THERE.
00:11:10.67\00:11:12.70
MATTER OF FACT, THE
ANIMAL WITH THE BIGGEST TEETH IS
00:11:12.73\00:11:14.44
AN ELEPHANT AND HIPPO -
THEY'RE ALL VEGETARIANS.
00:11:14.47\00:11:16.60
DOUG: DON'T GO
ANYWHERE, FRIENDS.
00:11:17.77\00:11:19.07
WE'LL BE BACK IN JUST
A MOMENT WITH THE REST
00:11:19.11\00:11:20.78

LET'S RETURN NOW TO TODAY'S
PRESENTATION AND LEARN SOME
00:12:23.37\00:12:25.87
MORE AMAZING FACTS
FROM THE WORD OF GOD.
00:12:25.91\00:12:28.78
DOUG: YOU KNOW, THE
U.S. NAVY DID A STUDY A FEW
00:12:30.25\00:12:32.21
YEARS AGO WHERE THEY SAID,
00:12:32.25\00:12:34.82
'WHAT DO WE GIVE, AS A
RULE OF THUMB, TO SAILORS
00:12:34.85\00:12:37.09
OR PILOTS THAT ARE SHOT
DOWN - IF THEY NEED TO EAT
00:12:37.12\00:12:39.65
SEAFOOD WHILE THEY'RE
FLOATING AROUND ON THESE
00:12:39.69\00:12:41.46
RAFTS - BECAUSE
DURING WORLD WAR II A LOT OF
00:12:41.49\00:12:42.99
THEM, THEY DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT THEY COULD AND
00:12:43.02\00:12:44.79
COULDN'T EAT.
THEY SPENT MILLIONS OF
00:12:44.83\00:12:46.76
GOVERNMENT DOLLARS.
THEY DID A STUDY AND YOU
00:12:46.80\00:12:48.60
KNOW WHAT THEY CAME BACK WITH?
00:12:48.63\00:12:50.07
THIS IS WHAT THE NAVY
STUDY CONCLUDED: IF IT HAS
00:12:50.10\00:12:53.30
FINS AND SCALES IT'S
PROBABLY SAFE TO EAT.
00:12:53.34\00:12:56.84
THEY COULD HAVE SAVED
SO MUCH MONEY AND JUST READ
00:12:56.87\00:12:58.67
WHAT THE BIBLE SAID.
(LAUGHTER) NOW YOU CAN
00:12:58.71\00:13:02.28
READ ON THERE IN
LEVITICUS AND IT SAYS THERE IN
00:13:02.31\00:13:05.31
LEVITICUS 11, VERSE
10, "BUT ALL IN THE SEAS OR
00:13:05.35\00:13:08.78
IN THE RIVERS THAT DO
NOT HAVE FINS AND SCALES," -
00:13:08.82\00:13:12.05
THAT MEANS RIVERS,
SEAS, LAKES - ALL THE OTHER
00:13:12.09\00:13:14.02
WATER CREATURES - "THAT
DO NOT HAVE FINS AND SCALES,
00:13:14.06\00:13:17.53
ALL THAT MOVE IN THE WATER OR
ANY LIVING THING WHICH IS IN THE
00:13:17.56\00:13:20.50
WATER, THEY ARE AN
ABOMINATION TO YOU."
00:13:20.53\00:13:23.90
WHY DOESN'T GOD WANT
US TO EAT CERTAIN THINGS?
00:13:23.93\00:13:26.77
THESE ANIMALS - CRABS,
LOBSTERS - YOU KNOW HOW
00:13:26.80\00:13:29.40
THEY CATCH THEM?
THEY'RE SCAVENGERS.
00:13:29.44\00:13:31.74
THEY PUT SOME DECOMPOSING
FISH HEAD IN A TRAP AND
00:13:31.77\00:13:34.84
THEY ARE MADE BY GOD TO
BE THE GARBAGE CANS IN THE
00:13:34.88\00:13:37.71
WORLD TO CLEAN THE ENVIRONMENT.
00:13:37.75\00:13:39.45
THEY EAT ALL THE
TOXINS. CLAMS - THEY SOAK
00:13:39.48\00:13:42.25
UP ALL THE TOXINS.
WE HAVE ONE PRESIDENT
00:13:42.28\00:13:43.85
THAT DIED FROM
EATING CONTAMINATED OYSTERS.
00:13:43.89\00:13:46.69
AND THESE THINGS ARE
JUST - THEY'RE NOT HEALTHY.
00:13:46.72\00:13:51.53
SHRIMP - WHEN THEY
SERVE SHRIMP, THEY SERVE IT
00:13:51.56\00:13:53.40
COMPLETE WITH THE
INTESTINES - ARE STILL -
00:13:53.43\00:13:56.33
THE DIGESTIVE
TRACK IS STILL IN THERE.
00:13:56.36\00:13:57.73
THAT'S NOT GOD'S - THAT
STUFF'S NOT GOOD FOR YOU.
00:13:57.77\00:14:00.10
THERE'S - DOWN IN THE
BOTTOM OF THE BAY WHERE
00:14:00.14\00:14:02.47
YOU GET THE OYSTERS AND
THE CLAMS ARE ALL THE TOXINS.
00:14:02.50\00:14:04.94
THEY'RE - THESE ANIMALS
ARE MADE BY GOD TO FILTER
00:14:04.97\00:14:07.04
AND HELP CLEAN THE ENVIRONMENT.
00:14:07.08\00:14:08.58
SAME THING WITH CERTAIN
BIRDS THAT ARE CONSIDERED
00:14:08.61\00:14:11.58
UNCLEAN. WHICH
BIRDS ARE UNCLEAN?
00:14:11.61\00:14:14.85
IN LEVITICUS 11, VERSES
15 AND 16, IT SAYS, "EVERY
00:14:14.88\00:14:20.26
RAVEN AFTER ITS
KIND, AND THE OWL, AND THE
00:14:20.29\00:14:26.29
NIGHTHAWK, AND
THE CUCKOW...AFTER ITS
00:14:26.33\00:14:29.83
KIND," - THE RAPTORS AND
THE CARNIVOROUS BIRDS WERE
00:14:29.86\00:14:33.30
CONSIDERED UNCLEAN.
THE CLEAN BIRDS - THERE'S
00:14:33.34\00:14:36.37
NOT A RULE LIKE FINS
AND SCALES - BUT THE CLEAN
00:14:36.40\00:14:39.64
BIRDS WERE THE
FORAGING BIRDS - TURKEY, THE
00:14:39.67\00:14:43.04
CHICKENS, PHEASANT, SO
FORTH - THEY WOULD BE CLEAN.
00:14:43.08\00:14:46.01
ARE THE LAWS ABOUT
CLEAN AND UNCLEAN ANIMALS PART
00:14:46.05\00:14:48.58
OF MOSES' CEREMONIAL LAW
WHICH ENDED AT THE CROSS?
00:14:48.62\00:14:52.89
THIS IS WHAT SOME PEOPLE THINK.
00:14:52.92\00:14:54.52
GENESIS 7, VERSES 1 AND
2 - SOME PEOPLE SAY, 'OH,
00:14:54.56\00:14:58.83
THOSE ARE LAWS JUST
FOR THE JEWS' - THOSE CLEAN
00:14:58.86\00:15:02.03
AND UNCLEAN
LAWS. WAS NOAH JEWISH?
00:15:02.06\00:15:06.27
LET'S READ THIS TOGETHER:
"...COME THOU AND ALL THY
00:15:06.30\00:15:09.84
HOUSE INTO THE
ARK...OF EVERY CLEAN BEAST THOU
00:15:09.87\00:15:15.08
SHALL TAKE TO THEE BY SEVENS."
00:15:15.11\00:15:17.75
SO DOES GOD MAKE A
DISTINCTION BETWEEN CLEAN
00:15:17.78\00:15:20.08
AND UNCLEAN ANIMALS EVEN
BEFORE THERE WERE ANY JEWS?
00:15:20.12\00:15:24.89
QUIZ: HOW MANY OF
YOU ARE RELATED TO NOAH?
00:15:24.92\00:15:29.42
>>ALL OF US. >>THAT'S RIGHT!
00:15:29.46\00:15:31.86
EVERYBODY HERE - AND SO IF
GOD MADE IT - THIS IS A TEST.
00:15:31.89\00:15:35.70
I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF
YOU MANAGED - YOUR ANCESTORS
00:15:35.73\00:15:37.37
SURVIVED THE FLOOD,
BESIDES NOAH - EVERYBODY
00:15:37.40\00:15:40.54
HERE IS RELATED TO
NOAH. GOD MADE A DISTINCTION -
00:15:40.57\00:15:43.10
THESE ARE THINGS THAT
WERE FOR MANKIND - YOU CAN SEE
00:15:43.14\00:15:45.24
IT GOING ALL THE
WAY BACK TO GENESIS.
00:15:45.27\00:15:47.11
SHOULD A CHRISTIAN,
BIBLICALLY, USE ALCOHOLIC
00:15:47.14\00:15:50.25
BEVERAGES? SOME
CHURCHES WOULD SAY,
00:15:50.28\00:15:52.95
'SURE, WHAT'S WRONG
WITH THAT? JESUS DRANK WINE.'
00:15:52.98\00:15:54.92
IT WAS NOT
ALCOHOLIC, IT WAS GRAPE JUICE.
00:15:54.95\00:15:58.15
THE BIBLE SAYS - PROVERBS
21 - AND THE BIBLE DOESN'T
00:15:58.19\00:16:00.56
CONTRADICT ITSELF -
"WINE IS A MOCKER, STRONG DRINK
00:16:00.59\00:16:05.66
IS RAGING" - IT'S TALKING
ABOUT FERMENTED WINE HERE
00:16:05.69\00:16:08.70
- "AND WHOEVER IS
DECEIVED THEREBY IS NOT WISE."
00:16:08.73\00:16:12.37
THE BIBLE SAYS 'GIVE
WINE TO HIM THAT IS READY TO
00:16:12.40\00:16:15.04
PERISH.' THE BIBLE
TELLS US THAT NOAH DRANK WINE
00:16:15.07\00:16:18.74
AND HE STUMBLED
AROUND NAKED AND SOMETHING
00:16:18.77\00:16:21.18
EMBARRASSING HAPPENED.
LOT'S DAUGHTERS GAVE THEIR
00:16:21.21\00:16:24.71
FATHER WINE AND HE
SLEPT WITH HIS DAUGHTERS.
00:16:24.75\00:16:28.58
GOOD THINGS DO NOT HAPPEN
WHEN PEOPLE DRINK ALCOHOL.
00:16:28.62\00:16:32.05
CHRISTIANS SHOULD
NOT UNDERWRITE THAT.
00:16:32.09\00:16:34.06
AND YOU MIGHT BE SAYING,
'PASTOR DOUG, I JUST HAVE,
00:16:34.09\00:16:35.49
YOU KNOW, A LITTLE
BIT OF WINE ONCE A WEEK.
00:16:35.52\00:16:38.33
JUST A LITTLE - I HAVE
NO PROBLEM - I DON'T HAVE
00:16:38.36\00:16:40.00
A DRINKING PROBLEM.'
THAT MAY BE, BUT ARE YOU AWARE
00:16:40.03\00:16:43.73
THAT ONE OUT OF SEVEN PEOPLE
DOES HAVE A DRINKING PROBLEM?
00:16:43.77\00:16:46.37
ALCOHOL IS
ADDICTIVE. DO WE ALL KNOW THAT?
00:16:46.40\00:16:50.14
SOME PEOPLE - IT
JUST WRECKS THEIR LIVES.
00:16:50.17\00:16:52.27
IT WRECKS THEIR MARRIAGES.
00:16:52.31\00:16:53.71
IT WRECKS THEIR
CAREERS. IT WRECKS THEIR HEALTH.
00:16:53.74\00:16:56.68
THERE WILL BE PEOPLE
IN HEAVEN THAT SMOKED.
00:16:56.71\00:17:00.22
I WANT TO MAKE IT
CLEAR. THERE ARE GOING TO BE
00:17:00.25\00:17:01.72
PEOPLE THAT DRANK ALCOHOL
- MARTIN LUTHER DRANK BEER.
00:17:01.75\00:17:04.12
I DON'T THINK THEY
UNDERSTOOD BACK THEN WHAT
00:17:04.15\00:17:05.99
WE UNDERSTAND. THE
MAN WHO WROTE AMAZING
00:17:06.02\00:17:07.69
GRACE, JOHN NEWTON, HE SMOKED.
DO YOU KNOW, BACK WHEN HE
00:17:07.72\00:17:11.16
SMOKED, DOCTORS ACTUALLY
PRESCRIBED TOBACCO FOR ASTHMA.
00:17:11.19\00:17:15.53
CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT?
HOW MANY OF YOU KNEW THAT?
00:17:15.56\00:17:18.73
YEAH, BUT WE KNOW BETTER NOW.
00:17:18.77\00:17:23.07
CIGARETTES ARE THE NUMBER
TWO LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH
00:17:23.10\00:17:27.08
- PREVENTABLE CAUSE OF
DEATH - IN NORTH AMERICA -
00:17:27.11\00:17:29.71
TOBACCO. IT MAKES
YOU PREMATURELY AGE.
00:17:29.74\00:17:32.91
IT'LL MAKE YOUR
VOICE RASPY AND MAKES YOUR
00:17:32.95\00:17:36.52
CLOTHES SMELL
FUNNY. TOBACCO - THERE'S
00:17:36.55\00:17:39.69
NOTHING GOOD ABOUT
IT. THERE'S NO NUTRITIONAL
00:17:39.72\00:17:41.36
VALUE AND IT COSTS A FORTUNE.
00:17:41.39\00:17:43.49
WHEN I WAS A KID IT WAS
TWENTY-FIVE CENTS A PACK.
00:17:43.53\00:17:45.96
MAN, I CAN'T BELIEVE
WHAT PEOPLE PAY FOR A PACK OF
00:17:45.99\00:17:47.83
CIGARETTES NOW. YOU
CAN BUY A NEW CAR AFTER
00:17:47.86\00:17:50.43
QUITTING FOR A COUPLE OF
YEARS. (LAUGHTER) ARE THE BIBLE
00:17:50.47\00:17:53.84
HEALTH PRINCIPLES
STILL PRACTICAL TODAY?
00:17:53.87\00:17:56.74
NOW WE'RE GOING TO GO
THROUGH A LIST OF SEVERAL
00:17:56.77\00:17:58.07
BIBLE PRINCIPLES AND
THESE ARE HEALTH PRINCIPLES AND
00:17:58.11\00:18:02.01
YOU ARE GOING TO BE
SURPRISED HOW MUCH OF THE
00:18:02.04\00:18:03.68
WORLD, NOW, IS
REALIZING THESE ARE BASIC HEALTH
00:18:03.71\00:18:06.28
LAWS - THEY'RE ALL IN THE BIBLE.
00:18:06.31\00:18:08.98
FIRST OF ALL,
QUARANTINE PROCEDURES CONTROL
00:18:09.02\00:18:12.49
CONTAGIOUS
DISEASE. WITH THIS EBOLA
00:18:12.52\00:18:16.66
DISCUSSION, WHAT
ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT?
00:18:16.69\00:18:19.26
LOOK AT THE INCREDIBLE
LENGTHS THEY'RE GOING TO
00:18:19.29\00:18:22.20
TO MAINTAIN A STERILE
ENVIRONMENT AND QUARANTINE
00:18:22.23\00:18:24.60
PROCEDURES. IN THE
BIBLE, GOD GAVE THAT.
00:18:24.63\00:18:27.60
HE SAID IF SOMEONE
IS UNCLEAN, THEY NEED TO
00:18:27.64\00:18:29.27
WASH, THEY NEED TO STAY
OUTSIDE THE CAMP, THEY'RE
00:18:29.30\00:18:30.64
CONTAGIOUS - THERE'S ALL
KINDS OF LAWS ABOUT CONTAGION.
00:18:30.67\00:18:33.78
THEY UNDERSTOOD
THIS IN THE BIBLE.
00:18:33.81\00:18:35.94
NUMBER TWO - BASIC
THING, AGAIN, CONNECTED WITH
00:18:35.98\00:18:38.58
EBOLA - IF THESE
THINGS WERE BEING PRACTICED IN
00:18:38.61\00:18:41.55
SOME OF THE COUNTRIES -
IT SAYS HUMAN BODY WASTE
00:18:41.58\00:18:45.15
SHOULD BE BURIED.
NOW, I KNOW, IT MAY NOT BE
00:18:45.19\00:18:49.06
PLEASANT TO THINK
ABOUT THAT, BUT IF YOU'VE
00:18:49.09\00:18:50.89
TRAVELED - MANY PARTS
OF THE WORLD I GO TO, EVEN
00:18:50.93\00:18:54.23
IN BIG CITIES, THEY
STILL DON'T HAVE REGULAR
00:18:54.30\00:18:56.97
SANITATION AND - I
KNOW, IT WOULD SHOCK YOU.
00:18:57.00\00:19:01.10
AND I WON'T NAME THOSE
COUNTRIES BECAUSE I DON'T
00:19:01.14\00:19:02.70
WANT TO OFFEND ANYBODY
NOW, BUT WAY BACK IN THE
00:19:02.74\00:19:05.01
BIBLE, EVEN GOING THROUGH
THE DESERT, GOD GAVE THEM
00:19:05.04\00:19:06.94
CERTAIN RULES ABOUT
THAT. C - WASHING - REGULAR
00:19:06.98\00:19:11.81
WASHING OF THE BODY AND
CLOTHING CONTROLS GERMS.
00:19:11.85\00:19:15.18
YOU KNOW, THAT'S IN THE BIBLE?
00:19:15.22\00:19:16.95
THEY HAD TO REGULARLY WASH.
00:19:16.99\00:19:18.42
EVEN AS THEY WENT THROUGH
THE WILDERNESS, GOD ALWAYS
00:19:18.45\00:19:20.36
MADE SURE THEY
HAD A WATER SUPPLY.
00:19:20.39\00:19:22.79
MOSES WOULD STRIKE THE
ROCK AND WATER WOULD RUN
00:19:22.82\00:19:25.06
OUT AND THIS RIVER
SEEMED TO BE REPRODUCED AND
00:19:25.09\00:19:27.40
FOLLOWED THEM WHEREVER
THEY WENT IN THEIR JOURNEYS
00:19:27.40\00:19:28.93
SO THEY COULD NOT ONLY
DRINK, BUT SO THEY COULD WASH.
00:19:28.96\00:19:32.93
AND FREQUENTLY IT
TALKED ABOUT WASHING.
00:19:32.97\00:19:34.90
THE BIBLE TELLS US THAT
A LOT OF DISEASE COULD ALSO
00:19:34.94\00:19:37.57
BE PREVENTED, AS WE
KNOW TODAY, BY MORAL LIVING.
00:19:37.61\00:19:41.98
IT PREVENTS SEXUAL DISEASES.
LEVITICUS 18; PROVERBS 5,
00:19:42.01\00:19:46.82
VERSES 1 THROUGH 12
AND MANY OTHER VERSES.
00:19:46.85\00:19:49.45
THERE ARE A NUMBER
OF SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED
00:19:49.48\00:19:51.89
DISEASES AND SOME
PEOPLE HAVE RECEIVED FATAL
00:19:51.92\00:19:55.62
INFECTIONS BECAUSE
OF IMMORAL LIFESTYLE.
00:19:55.66\00:19:59.56
ANSWER E - ANOTHER
BIBLE PRINCIPLE ABOUT HEALTH -
00:19:59.59\00:20:02.76
ANIMAL FAT SHOULD NOT BE
EATEN - NOT ONLY FAT, BUT BLOOD.
00:20:02.80\00:20:08.67
YOU KNOW, DISEASE CAN BE
00:20:08.70\00:20:10.01
TRANSFERRED FROM
ANIMAL TO ANIMAL.
00:20:10.04\00:20:11.51
YOU DON'T CATCH A
DISEASE FROM A PLANT. -
00:20:11.54\00:20:13.17
YOU MIGHT GET POISON IVY -
BUT DISEASE CAN BE TRANSFERRED
00:20:13.21\00:20:15.94
FROM ANIMAL TO ANIMAL AND HE
SAYS WE SHOULD NOT EAT BLOOD.
00:20:15.98\00:20:20.42
BY THE WAY, NEW
TESTAMENT/OLD TESTAMENT,
00:20:20.45\00:20:22.48
BOTH SAY BLOOD IS FORBIDDEN.
00:20:22.52\00:20:24.19
ACTS 15 - READ IT
YOURSELF - NO QUESTION ABOUT IT.
00:20:24.22\00:20:27.16
SOME PEOPLE SAY, 'THESE
ARE OLD TESTAMENT LAWS.'
00:20:27.19\00:20:28.99
IT'S REPEATED IN
THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:20:29.02\00:20:30.86
F - ANOTHER PRINCIPLE -
HATRED AND BITTERNESS IS
00:20:30.89\00:20:34.46
DETRIMENTAL TO ONE'S HEALTH.
00:20:34.46\00:20:36.43
SOME PEOPLE ARE SICK,
NOT JUST BECAUSE OF WHAT
00:20:36.46\00:20:38.27
THEY'RE EATING, BUT
BECAUSE OF WHAT'S EATING THEM.
00:20:38.30\00:20:41.34
AND HAVING ANGER AND
BITTERNESS IN YOUR HEART -
00:20:41.37\00:20:45.21
STRESS - IT REALLY
DOES CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS.
00:20:45.24\00:20:48.78
G - PROVERBS TALKS ABOUT
OVEREATING IS BAD FOR YOUR
00:20:48.81\00:20:52.18
HEALTH.
(LAUGHTER) IT'S ONE THING
00:20:52.21\00:20:54.25
TO EAT HONEY, IT
SAYS DON'T EAT TOO MUCH.
00:20:54.28\00:20:57.15
AND YOU CAN EVEN EAT
TOO MUCH OF GOOD THINGS.
00:20:57.19\00:21:00.22
AND SUMO WRESTLERS
USUALLY DON'T DIE OF OLD AGE
00:21:00.26\00:21:04.79
BECAUSE IT'S JUST,
OBVIOUSLY, NOT GOOD.
00:21:04.83\00:21:08.56
H - OUR BODIES NEED PROPER REST.
00:21:08.60\00:21:11.70
PSALMS 127, VERSE 2 AND
MARK 6:31 - THE SABBATH IS
00:21:11.73\00:21:16.60
ALL ABOUT THAT -
GETTING PLENTY OF SLEEP.
00:21:16.64\00:21:19.77
ANSWER I - THE
IMPORTANCE OF WORK.
00:21:19.81\00:21:24.25
NOT ONLY DOES IT SAY
REST THE SEVENTH DAY, IT SAYS
00:21:24.28\00:21:26.11
SIX DAYS THOU SHALT WHAT?
WORK. ANSWER J - A POSITIVE
00:21:26.15\00:21:31.69
ATTITUDE IS GOOD MEDICINE.
THE LORD WANTS US TO HAVE
00:21:31.72\00:21:35.52
GOOD ATTI - A HAPPY
HEART IS GOOD LIKE A MEDICINE.
00:21:35.56\00:21:37.99
AND EVEN WHEN I TEACH
SOME OF THESE DIFFICULT TRUTHS,
00:21:38.03\00:21:40.46
YOU KNOW, I THINK WE
SOMETIMES NEED TO BE ABLE
00:21:40.50\00:21:42.36
TO SMILE BECAUSE
LIFE IS TOUGH ENOUGH.
00:21:42.40\00:21:45.80
IS GOD CONCERNED
WITH OUR PHYSICAL HEALTH?
00:21:45.83\00:21:48.84
'I THINK GOD'S ONLY
CONCERNED WITH SPIRITUAL
00:21:48.87\00:21:50.24
THINGS.' IS THAT
WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES?
00:21:50.27\00:21:52.64
MATTHEW 4:23, "AND
JESUS WENT ABOUT ALL GALILEE,
00:21:52.67\00:21:57.75
TEACHING IN THEIR
SYNAGOGUES, AND PREACHING
00:21:57.78\00:22:00.12
THE GOSPEL OF THE
KINGDOM, AND" - DOING WHAT?
00:22:00.15\00:22:03.05
>>HEALING.
>>"HEALING ALL MANNER OF
00:22:03.08\00:22:05.09
SICKNESS AND ALL MANNER
OF DISEASE AMONG THE PEOPLE."
00:22:05.12\00:22:09.26
DOES THE LORD
CARE ABOUT OUR HEALTH?
00:22:09.29\00:22:11.79
>>YES. >>YES. AND
HE, MANY TIMES, WILL
00:22:11.83\00:22:14.36
MIRACULOUSLY HEAL
PEOPLE. SOMETIMES SICKNESS COMES
00:22:14.36\00:22:17.57
JUST BECAUSE OF GENETICS,
SOMETIMES SICKNESS COMES
00:22:17.60\00:22:19.67
BECAUSE YOU'RE EXPOSED
TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO IS SICK,
00:22:19.70\00:22:22.14
THERE MIGHT BE SOME
ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM BUT,
00:22:22.17\00:22:24.31
YOU KNOW, THE MAJORITY OF
SICKNESS IN OUR COUNTRY IS
00:22:24.34\00:22:27.81
SELF-INDUCED
BECAUSE OF LIFESTYLE.
00:22:27.84\00:22:31.68
YOU KNOW WHY THERE'S A
HEALTH-CARE CRISIS AND THE
00:22:31.71\00:22:34.75
MEDICAL INSTITUTIONS ARE
BANKRUPT AND SO EXPENSIVE?
00:22:34.78\00:22:38.52
BECAUSE OF OUR
LIFESTYLES, IN PARTICULAR IN THE
00:22:38.55\00:22:40.89
WESTERN CULTURES, BECAUSE
THE RICH LIFE, THE LACK OF
00:22:40.92\00:22:44.09
EXERCISE, AND THE
ABUNDANCE, PEOPLE ARE
00:22:44.13\00:22:46.39
BRINGING ON DISEASES
EARLY IN LIFE AND THEN THEY ARE
00:22:46.43\00:22:49.13
STRUGGLING WITH THESE
DISEASES FOR MANY YEARS
00:22:49.16\00:22:51.53
AND IT'S CAUSING
CATASTROPHIC EXPENSES.
00:22:51.57\00:22:55.17
WE'D BE ABLE TO PUT A
LOT OF HOSPITALS OUT OF
00:22:55.20\00:22:56.94
BUSINESS IF WE'D
JUST FOLLOW THE BIBLE.
00:22:56.97\00:22:59.57
3 JOHN 2, "BELOVED, I
WISH ABOVE ALL THINGS" - GOD
00:22:59.61\00:23:04.51
SAYS, 'ABOVE ALL THINGS.'
- "THAT YOU MAY" - WHAT?
00:23:04.55\00:23:07.98
- "PROSPER AND BE IN
HEALTH," - HOW? "JUST AS YOUR
00:23:08.02\00:23:12.42
SOUL PROSPERS."
SO WHAT KIND OF LEVEL
00:23:12.45\00:23:14.92
DOES HE PUT IT ON? 'I
WANT HEALTH - PHYSICAL
00:23:14.96\00:23:17.26
PROSPERITY - AND I
WANT SPIRITUAL PROSPERITY.
00:23:17.29\00:23:19.59
NOW, IF YOU CAN ONLY
PICK ONE, PICK THE SPIRITUAL
00:23:19.63\00:23:22.30
BECAUSE WHAT PROFIT IS IT
IF YOU HAVE PERFECT HEALTH
00:23:22.33\00:23:24.20
AND YOU'RE A TERRIBLE SINNER?
00:23:24.23\00:23:25.73
IT'S NOT GOING TO
SAVE YOU FOR ETERNITY.
00:23:25.77\00:23:27.37
BUT GOD SAYS, 'YOU KNOW,
WHEN YOU'VE TAKEN CARE OF
00:23:27.40\00:23:29.20
THE SPIRIT, MAKE SURE
AND TAKE CARE OF THE BODY
00:23:29.24\00:23:31.21
BECAUSE HAVING YOUR
MIND CLEAR AND YOUR BODY
00:23:31.24\00:23:34.51
HEALTHY MAKES IT
EASIER TO SERVE GOD -
00:23:34.54\00:23:37.15
TO RESIST THE
DEVIL AND DO GOD'S WILL.
00:23:37.18\00:23:39.45
ANOTHER ONE - JOHN 10:10
- IT SAYS, "...I HAVE COME
00:23:39.48\00:23:43.65
THAT THEY MAY HAVE
LIFE, AND" - AND WHAT KIND OF
00:23:43.69\00:23:45.75
LIFE DOES HE WANT US TO
HAVE? - "...MORE ABUNDANTLY."
00:23:45.79\00:23:49.12
YOU SEE THE
FELLOW IN THAT PICTURE?
00:23:49.16\00:23:50.83
HIS NAME WAS BANANA GEORGE.
00:23:50.86\00:23:52.66
HE IS SKIING
BAREFOOT - I'VE DONE THAT.
00:23:52.69\00:23:55.63
THAT IS VERY, VERY HARD
FOR A YOUNG MAN TO DO - HE
00:23:55.66\00:23:58.83
IS, I THINK, 80
YEARS OLD IN THIS PICTURE.
00:23:58.87\00:24:01.00
HE CONTINUED SKIING
UNTIL 92 - DIDN'T EVEN START
00:24:01.04\00:24:04.01
SKIING UNTIL HE WAS IN
HIS FORTIES - HE LOVED BANANAS
00:24:04.04\00:24:07.31
AND THAT'S WHY HE
ALWAYS WORE YELLOW.
00:24:07.34\00:24:08.74
HE PASSED AWAY WAY UP
IN HIS 90S IN 2013, BUT I
00:24:08.78\00:24:12.78
ALWAYS WAS
FASCINATED BY THAT PICTURE.
00:24:12.81\00:24:14.58
HERE'S A PICTURE
SOMEONE JUST GAVE ME THIS YEAR.
00:24:14.62\00:24:17.15
THIS IS SOMEONE - KAREN
AND I WERE PASTORS OF THIS
00:24:17.19\00:24:20.29
CHURCH IN NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA AND ONE SISTER,
00:24:20.32\00:24:22.72
LAST TIME WE
SAW HER SHE WAS 106.
00:24:22.76\00:24:25.26
AT THE TIME OF THIS
ARTICLE - SHE PASSED AWAY
00:24:25.29\00:24:27.40
SINCE - SHE WAS 111
THEN. AND I REMEMBER I SAT WITH
00:24:27.40\00:24:31.30
HER AND HER BROTHER-IN-LAW
AND HIS WIFE - HER NAME
00:24:31.33\00:24:35.40
WAS VIOLA COOK - IN THEIR
HOME AND I WOULD EAT WITH THEM.
00:24:35.44\00:24:37.77
THEY HAD DELICIOUS VEGETARIAN
FOOD - SHE WAS A VEGETARIAN
00:24:37.81\00:24:39.77
HER WHOLE LIFE.
AND I REMEMBER HER
00:24:39.81\00:24:41.84
BROTHER-IN-LAW - I USED
TO SAY, 'ART, HOW DO YOU GUYS
00:24:41.88\00:24:45.35
HAVE SUCH GREAT
HEALTH AND STRENGTH?'
00:24:45.38\00:24:47.05
HERE I WAS A YOUNG
WHIPPERSNAPPER - I'D TRY
00:24:47.08\00:24:48.42
AND DO WORK FOR THEM - I
COULDN'T KEEP UP WITH THEM.
00:24:48.45\00:24:50.39
AND I NOTICED HE
PUSHED AWAY FROM THE TABLE.
00:24:50.42\00:24:52.42
I SAID, 'YOU'RE DONE EATING?'
00:24:52.45\00:24:53.79
HE SAID, 'HERE'S THE
SECRET TO LIFE, DOUG.
00:24:53.82\00:24:56.49
STOP EATING WHILE
YOU'RE STILL A LITTLE HUNGRY.
00:24:56.52\00:24:59.03
WAKE UP WHEN YOU'RE
STILL A LITTLE TIRED.
00:24:59.06\00:25:02.00
AND STOP TALKING WHEN
YOU STILL HAVE SOMETHING LEFT
00:25:02.03\00:25:03.83
TO SAY. (LAUGHTER) SO THAT'S
THE SECRET TO HAPPINESS IN LIFE.
00:25:03.87\00:25:09.24
WHY IS OUR HEALTH
SO IMPORTANT TO GOD?
00:25:09.27\00:25:12.14
1 CORINTHIANS 6:19,
"...YOUR BODY" - AND VERSE
00:25:12.17\00:25:16.75
20 - "IS THE" -
WHAT? >>THE TEMPLE.
00:25:16.78\00:25:19.18
>>"THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT...THEREFORE GLORIFY
00:25:19.21\00:25:23.59
GOD IN YOUR BODY AND IN
YOUR SPIRIT, WHICH ARE GOD'S."
00:25:23.62\00:25:27.96
AGAIN, ROMANS 12:1,
"...PRESENT YOUR BODY A
00:25:27.99\00:25:31.83
LIVING SACRIFICE" -
HOW? - "HOLY AND ACCEPTABLE
00:25:31.86\00:25:35.96
TO GOD, WHICH IS
YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE."
00:25:36.00\00:25:39.37
GOD SAYS, 'LOOK,
YOU'VE BEEN - YOU'RE MADE IN
00:25:39.40\00:25:41.54
GOD'S IMAGE, YOU BELONG
TO GOD, YOU ARE TO PRESENT,
00:25:41.57\00:25:45.71
NOT JUST YOUR SPIRIT,
BUT PRESENT YOUR BODY - YOU
00:25:45.74\00:25:48.98
KNOW, WE WORSHIP GOD,
NOT JUST WITH OUR MINDS, WE
00:25:49.01\00:25:51.55
WORSHIP GOD WITH OUR
LIVES AND WHETHER YOU EAT OR
00:25:51.58\00:25:55.22
DRINK, WHATEVER YOU DO,
DO ALL TO THE GLORY OF GOD.

00:26:38.96\00:26:40.60
WHEN SUSAN'S AND

00:26:40.63\00:26:43.06
LED TO A WEDDING,
00:26:43.10\00:26:44.60
THEY HAD NO IDEA HOW
HARD MARRIED LIFE COULD BE.
00:26:44.63\00:26:47.80
BEFORE THEY KNEW IT
THEY WERE ON THE STORMY PATH
00:26:47.84\00:26:50.31
TOWARDS DIVORCE, BUT
THAT'S WHEN GOD LED THEM
00:26:50.34\00:26:53.68
