00:01:37.09\00:01:45.03
WITH A STORY THAT YOU
FIND IN THE BIBLE IN THE BOOK
00:01:45.07\00:01:49.44
OF DANIEL - DANIEL
CHAPTER 1 - AND IT'S CALLED
00:01:49.47\00:01:53.11
BABYLON'S BUFFET AND
THIS IS BASED UPON DANIEL 1,
00:01:53.14\00:01:58.18
VERSES 1 THROUGH 21
- IT'S A WHOLE CHAPTER.
00:01:58.21\00:02:00.85
NOW DANIEL IS A BOOK THAT
DEALS A LOT WITH PROPHECY, BUT
00:02:00.88\00:02:03.42
IT'S INTERESTING HOW THE BOOK
OF DANIEL BEGINS WITH A TEST.
00:02:03.45\00:02:08.39
ABOUT 500 YEARS BEFORE CHRIST,
KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR INVADED
00:02:08.42\00:02:11.73
JERUSALEM, AND ON HIS
FIRST ATTACK ON THE CITY
00:02:11.76\00:02:16.00
HE CARRIED AWAY
THOUSANDS OF PRISONERS FROM
00:02:16.03\00:02:19.27
JERUSALEM TO BABYLON
AND AMONG THOSE HE CARRIED
00:02:19.30\00:02:22.60
AWAY WERE SOME OF
THE PRINCES OF JERUSALEM.
00:02:22.64\00:02:26.68
SOME OF THEM, THE BIBLE
FORETOLD, WERE DESCENDANTS OF
00:02:26.71\00:02:29.64
KING HEZEKIAH. AND
THEY WERE TAKEN AND THEY
00:02:29.68\00:02:32.58
WERE EDUCATED IN
THE PALACE OF BABYLON.
00:02:32.61\00:02:36.05
AND THE KING SAID,
'LOOK, WE'RE GOING TO TEACH YOU
00:02:36.08\00:02:37.65
THE LANGUAGE OF THE
BABYLONIANS' - HE TOOK THE
00:02:37.69\00:02:39.22
BRIGHTEST AND THE BEST
LOOKING OF ALL THE ROYAL
00:02:39.25\00:02:42.52
CHILDREN BACK TO BABYLON
AND HE SAID, 'I'M GOING TO
00:02:42.56\00:02:46.06
TRAIN YOU IN ALL THE
SCIENCES OF BABYLON,' -
00:02:46.09\00:02:49.23
WHICH WAS THE MOST
SOPHISTICATED PLACE IN THE
00:02:49.26\00:02:50.97
WORLD AT THE TIME -
'AND AFTER THREE YEARS, THOSE
00:02:51.00\00:02:54.40
WHO PASSED THE TEST -
THE CREAM OF THE CROP - WILL
00:02:54.44\00:02:56.77
STAND BEFORE ME AND THEY
WILL BE REPRESENTATIVES TO
00:02:56.81\00:03:00.08
THESE OTHER NATIONS.'
NEBUCHADNEZZAR WAS REALLY
00:03:00.11\00:03:03.61
A VERY SMART LEADER AND
HE HAD GREAT COUNSELORS AND
00:03:03.65\00:03:05.91
THIS WAS A WISE PLAN. SO
AMONG SOME OF THE THOUSANDS
00:03:05.95\00:03:09.45
THAT WERE CARRIED FROM JERUSALEM
WERE FOUR HEBREW YOUNG MEN.
00:03:09.48\00:03:13.09
THEIR JEWISH NAMES WERE
DANIEL, HANANIAH, MISHAEL,
00:03:13.12\00:03:17.29
AND AZARIAH.
BABYLONIAN NAMES WERE
00:03:17.33\00:03:20.26
BELTESHAZAR,
SHADRACH, MESHACH, AND ABEDNEGO.
00:03:20.30\00:03:24.83
AND DANIEL, SHADRACH,
MESHACH, AND ABEDNEGO WENT
00:03:24.87\00:03:29.24
TO THIS SCHOOL, BUT
THEN THEY FOUND OUT THAT THEY
00:03:29.27\00:03:31.57
WERE GOING TO BE
REQUIRED TO EAT FROM THE ROYAL
00:03:31.61\00:03:33.44
CAFETERIA. NOW
MOST CAPTIVES WOULD
00:03:33.48\00:03:35.04
HAVE BEEN THRILLED.
ALL THE OTHER STUDENTS
00:03:35.08\00:03:37.18
FROM THE OTHER PARTS OF
THE WORLD NEBUCHADNEZZAR
00:03:37.21\00:03:38.91
CONQUERED - THEY
WERE THRILLED THAT THEY
00:03:38.95\00:03:40.32
GOT TO EAT AT THE
BABYLONIAN BUFFET.
00:03:40.35\00:03:43.32
IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
THE BEST FOOD IN THE WORLD,
00:03:43.35\00:03:46.35
BUT RIGHT AWAY DANIEL
AND HIS FRIENDS REALIZED THEY
00:03:46.39\00:03:48.86
COULDN'T EAT THAT
BECAUSE THERE WAS FOOD IN THERE
00:03:48.89\00:03:50.66
THAT GOD HAD
DESIGNATED AS UNCLEAN.
00:03:50.69\00:03:53.96
AND IT SAYS IN DANIEL
1, VERSE 8, "BUT DANIEL
00:03:54.00\00:03:57.17
PURPOSED IN HIS HEART
THAT HE WOULD NOT DEFILE
00:03:57.20\00:04:00.40
HIMSELF WITH THE PORTION
OF THE KING'S DELICACIES,
00:04:00.44\00:04:04.21
NOR WITH THE WINE WHICH
HE DRANK;" - SO DANIEL WENT
00:04:04.24\00:04:07.61
TO THE CHIEF OF THE
EUNUCHS, WHICH WAS IN
00:04:07.64\00:04:09.38
CHARGE OF THE
PREPARATION AND THEIR TRAINING,
00:04:09.41\00:04:11.85
AND HE SAID, 'LET
US JUST EAT VEGETABLES.
00:04:11.88\00:04:15.32
GIVE US TEN DAYS.' AND
YOU'LL FIND THE KING JAMES
00:04:15.35\00:04:17.02
WORD THERE IS 'PULSE' -
SOME OF YOUR TRANSLATIONS
00:04:17.05\00:04:19.39
IT JUST SAYS VEGETABLES
- AND HE SAID, 'OH, I CAN'T
00:04:19.42\00:04:22.19
DO THAT.' - HE SAYS -
'THE KING'S GOING TO LOOK AT
00:04:22.22\00:04:23.83
YOU AND SAY, 'HOW COME
THESE YOUNG MEN ARE SICK?'
00:04:23.86\00:04:26.33
AND I'M GOING TO SAY,
'WELL, THEY'RE NOT EATING THE
00:04:26.36\00:04:27.50
FOOD THAT YOU PROVIDED.' 'WHAT?
00:04:27.56\00:04:29.06
MY FOOD WASN'T
GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM?'
00:04:29.10\00:04:30.43
AND HE SAID, 'HE'LL TAKE
MY HEAD OFF.' DANIEL SAID,
00:04:30.47\00:04:32.53
'YOU TEST US. GIVE US TEN DAYS.
00:04:32.57\00:04:34.40
IF WE DON'T LOOK OKAY,
FINE.' SO, FOR TEN DAYS
00:04:34.44\00:04:39.21
THEY ATE NOTHING BUT VEGETABLES.
00:04:39.24\00:04:42.28
THEY ATE VEGETABLE STEW
AND A VEGETARIAN DIET - DRANK
00:04:42.31\00:04:45.85
WATER - AND THE BIBLE
SAYS - DANIEL 1, VERSE 15 -
00:04:45.88\00:04:50.22
"AND AT THE END OF TEN
DAYS THEIR COUNTENANCES
00:04:50.25\00:04:53.12
APPEARED FAIRER AND
FATTER IN FLESH THAN ALL THE
00:04:53.15\00:04:56.79
CHILDREN WHICH DID EAT
THE PORTION OF THE KING'S
00:04:56.83\00:04:58.93
MEAT." THEY WERE HEALTHIER THAN
00:04:58.96\00:05:01.70
THOSE WHO WERE EATING
FROM THE CAFETERIA OF BABYLON.
00:05:01.73\00:05:04.23
NOW WHY DOES THE
BIBLE INCLUDE THIS STORY?
00:05:04.27\00:05:08.64
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT
WHEN NEBUCHADNEZZAR HAD THEM
00:05:08.67\00:05:10.37
TESTED - PROBABLY BY
HIMSELF AS WELL AS HIS
00:05:10.41\00:05:13.48
OTHER WISE MEN IN THE
KINGDOM - THEY FOUND THAT
00:05:13.51\00:05:16.44
AMONG ALL THE
CAPTIVES THAT HAD BEEN TRAINED,
00:05:16.48\00:05:18.78
DANIEL, HANANIAH, MISHAEL,
AND AZARIAH WERE TEN TIMES
00:05:18.81\00:05:23.12
WISER - TEN TIMES WISER -
THAN ANY OF THE OTHERS WHO
00:05:23.15\00:05:28.12
HAD TRAINED.
BEING A CHRISTIAN IS NOT
00:05:28.16\00:05:31.19
JUST ABOUT A
CHANGE IN YOUR THINKING.
00:05:31.23\00:05:33.96
BEING A CHRISTIAN IS AN
ENTIRE TRANSFORMATION AND
00:05:34.00\00:05:38.30
'WHATEVER YOU EAT AND
WHATEVER YOU DRINK, DO ALL
00:05:38.33\00:05:40.67
TO THE GLORY OF GOD.'
IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE
00:05:40.70\00:05:43.54
WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR BODY.
00:05:43.57\00:05:44.67
YOUR BODY IS THE
TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:05:44.71\00:05:47.48
AND A TRUTH THAT HAS
BEEN LOST IN RECENT YEARS TO
00:05:47.51\00:05:51.91
CHRISTIANITY - BOTH
PROTESTANTS AND CATHOLICS
00:05:51.95\00:05:55.45
AND EVANGELICALS - IS A
VERY CLEAR BIBLICAL TEACHING
00:05:55.48\00:05:58.92
THAT WE ARE TO
TAKE CARE OF OUR BODIES.
00:05:58.95\00:06:02.59
WE ARE TO BE CAREFUL.
WE ARE TO USE SELF-CONTROL
00:06:02.62\00:06:05.16
AND ESPECIALLY IS
THAT IMPORTANT WHEN WE'RE
00:06:05.19\00:06:07.50
LIVING IN A SOCIETY THAT
IS DROWNING IN ABUNDANCE.
00:06:07.50\00:06:11.00
#1 - WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL
DIET THAT GOD DESIGNED FOR
00:06:11.03\00:06:14.10
HUMANS IN THE BEGINNING
- WE'RE GOING ALL THE WAY
00:06:14.14\00:06:16.14
BACK TO GENESIS NOW
- FIRST CHAPTER IN THE
00:06:16.17\00:06:18.81
BIBLE, GENESIS 1:29, AND
GOD SAID, 'BEHOLD, I HAVE
00:06:18.84\00:06:23.81
GIVEN YOU EVERY HERB
BEARING SEED,'" - AND
00:06:23.85\00:06:27.75
THAT'S TALKING
ABOUT EVERY PLANT.
00:06:27.78\00:06:29.72
AND IT GOES ON TO SAY,
"...AND EVERY TREE, IN THE
00:06:29.75\00:06:32.75
WHICH IS THE FRUIT OF A
TREE YIELDING SEED; TO YOU
00:06:32.79\00:06:38.33
IT SHALL BE FOR MEAT.'" -
AND THAT WORD 'MEAT' THERE
00:06:38.36\00:06:41.16
IS THE OLD ENGLISH
WORD. IT MEANS 'FOOD' - IT'S
00:06:41.20\00:06:43.26
LIKE THE MEAT OF A NUT -
IT JUST MEANS 'THE FOOD'.
00:06:43.30\00:06:45.40
SO THE ORIGINAL DIET
FOR ADAM AND EVE WAS WHAT?
00:06:45.43\00:06:49.10
FRUITS, GRAINS, NUTS -
IT WAS A 'FRUITARIAN' DIET.
00:06:49.14\00:06:54.21
THEY PROBABLY DIDN'T
EVEN COOK ANY FOOD BACK THERE.
00:06:54.24\00:06:56.54
HOW LONG DID GOD INTEND
FOR ADAM AND EVE TO LIVE
00:06:56.58\00:06:59.18
WHEN HE FIRST
MADE THEM? >>FOREVER.
00:06:59.21\00:07:00.95
>>FOREVER. AND
THEN, AFTER SIN, GOD
00:07:00.98\00:07:06.92
ADDED ONE MORE THING TO
THE DIET BECAUSE HE SAID,
00:07:06.96\00:07:08.72
'YOU CAN'T EAT FROM THE
TREE OF LIFE ANY LONGER.'
00:07:08.76\00:07:11.06
AFTER ADAM AND EVE
SINNED IT SAYS, 'WHAT
00:07:11.09\00:07:12.69
SUPPLEMENTAL FOOD DID
GOD THEN ADD TO THEIR DIET?'
00:07:12.73\00:07:15.90
GENESIS 3:18, IT
SAYS, "...THOU SHALT EAT THE
00:07:15.93\00:07:21.04
HERB OF THE FIELD."
THAT MEANS THE VEGETABLE.
00:07:21.07\00:07:24.64
BUT A VEGETABLE IS
TECHNICALLY - OH, LET ME
00:07:24.67\00:07:28.28
GIVE YOU A TEST AND FIND
OUT - FRUIT OR VEGETABLE -
00:07:28.31\00:07:32.31
BANANA? >>FRUIT.
00:07:32.35\00:07:33.95
>>FRUIT. APPLE? >>FRUIT.
00:07:33.98\00:07:36.02
>>ZUCCHINI? >>VEGETABLE.
00:07:36.05\00:07:38.52
>>FRUIT. EGGPLANT? >>VEGETABLE.
00:07:38.55\00:07:43.06
>>FRUIT. BRUSSELS SPROUTS?
00:07:43.09\00:07:46.53
>>VEGETABLE. >>INEDIBLE.
00:07:46.56\00:07:48.90
(LAUGHTER) BRUSSELS SPROUTS
ARE ACTUALLY A VEGETABLE.
00:07:48.93\00:07:54.17
CELERY? >>VEGETABLE.
00:07:54.20\00:07:56.10
>>IT'S A VEGETABLE. POTATO?
00:07:56.14\00:07:58.54
>>VEGETABLE. >>IT'S A VEGETABLE.
00:07:58.57\00:08:00.18
SO ANY PART OF THE
PLANT OTHER THAN THE SEED AND
00:08:00.21\00:08:02.51
THE PRODUCT OF THE FLOWER
- A FRUIT IS THE PRODUCT OF
00:08:02.54\00:08:04.55
THE FLOWER - IS GOING
TO BE A VEGETABLE - THE
00:08:04.58\00:08:07.45
STALK, THE LEAVES, THE
FLOWERS - THOSE ARE ALL
00:08:07.48\00:08:09.62
CONSIDERED TO BE VEGETABLES.
00:08:09.65\00:08:10.89
THE ROOT - YOU KNOW,
THEY'RE TUBERS - A POTATO.
00:08:10.92\00:08:14.96
SO HE ADDED THAT TO
THE DIET AND THERE WERE ALL
00:08:14.99\00:08:16.59
KINDS OF IMPORTANT
ENZYMES AND THINGS IN THERE.
00:08:16.62\00:08:19.53
SO THERE ARE BENEFITS -
THERE'S NO QUESTION THAT
00:08:19.56\00:08:22.00
THERE ARE BENEFITS TO
EATING A VEGETABLE-BASED DIET.
00:08:22.03\00:08:24.83
FOR AWHILE, PEOPLE
THOUGHT THAT SEVENTH-DAY
00:08:24.87\00:08:26.84
ADVENTISTS WERE KOOKS,
BUT I DON'T KNOW IF YOU READ
00:08:26.87\00:08:29.27
THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC
A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO.
00:08:29.30\00:08:31.77
IT SAID - THEY PICKED
OUT THE THREE LONGEST LIVING
00:08:31.81\00:08:34.58
PEOPLE IN THE
WORLD. DID YOU KNOW THAT?
00:08:34.61\00:08:37.35
YOU CAN GO LOOK THIS
UP. NUMBER 1, THERE WERE
00:08:37.38\00:08:39.41
PEOPLE IN SARDINIA
IN - OFF OF ITALY IN THE
00:08:39.45\00:08:42.82
MEDITERRANEAN, THE
PEOPLE OF OKINAWA, AND THE
00:08:42.85\00:08:46.65
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS,
PRINCIPALLY IN THE LOMA
00:08:46.69\00:08:48.92
LINDA AREA WHERE THEY
HAVE A UNIVERSITY AND THERE'S
00:08:48.96\00:08:50.66
A LARGE CONCENTRATION.
THEY STUDIED THEM.
00:08:50.69\00:08:52.53
THEY LIVED THE LONGEST OF
ANY PEOPLE GROUPS IN THE WORLD.
00:08:52.56\00:08:56.30
AND WHEN THEY ASKED WHY
DO THESE PEOPLE LIVE LONGER,
00:08:56.33\00:08:58.57
THEY SAID, 'WELL,
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS -
00:08:58.60\00:09:00.64
IT'S THE COMMUNITY, THE
REST FROM THE SABBATH, AND
00:09:00.67\00:09:02.97
THEY'RE LARGELY - NOT
ENTIRELY, BUT LARGELY - A
00:09:03.00\00:09:05.67
VEGETARIAN
LIFESTYLE - HEALTHY LIFESTYLE.
00:09:05.71\00:09:08.21
AND SO, WHAT WE'RE
SHARING WITH YOU IS NOT SOME
00:09:08.24\00:09:10.95
RELIGIOUS BELIEF, THIS
IS HARD, SCIENTIFIC FACT -
00:09:10.98\00:09:14.15
THAT IF YOU EAT - THE
CLOSER TO THE BIBLICAL
00:09:14.18\00:09:17.39
DIET THAT GOD PRESCRIBED,
THE LONGER YOU'RE GOING TO
00:09:17.42\00:09:22.02
LIVE, THE BETTER
YOU'RE GOING TO FEEL, THE LESS
00:09:22.06\00:09:23.26
DISEASE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE.
00:09:23.29\00:09:25.69
IN THE MANUAL HE TELLS
YOU WHAT THE IDEAL DIET IS FOR
00:09:25.73\00:09:28.00
MAN, AND FOLLOWING THAT
DIET WILL CERTAINLY MAKE
00:09:28.03\00:09:31.37
YOU FEEL BETTER.
I'LL SHARE A LITTLE MORE
00:09:31.40\00:09:32.93
PERSONALLY WITH
YOU AS WE PROCEED.
00:09:32.97\00:09:35.50
WHAT DOES THE BIBLE
SAY, MORE SPECIFICALLY, ABOUT
00:09:35.54\00:09:37.57
EATING? ARE THERE SOME MAMMALS -
00:09:37.61\00:09:39.37
SOME FOODS THAT ARE CLEAN
AND SOME THAT ARE UNCLEAN?
00:09:39.41\00:09:41.78
YOU KNOW, DANIEL SAID
HE WOULDN'T DEFILE HIMSELF
00:09:41.81\00:09:44.61
WITH THE MEAT WHICH
THE KING'S SERVANTS WERE
00:09:44.65\00:09:46.41
EATING. WHAT MAMMALS DOES GOD
00:09:46.45\00:09:48.35
PERMIT HUMANS TO
EAT? THAT'S QUESTION #9.
00:09:48.38\00:09:51.09
YOU LOOK IN LEVITICUS
11, VERSE 3, IT TELLS US THAT
00:09:51.12\00:09:54.42
THERE'S TWO CRITERIA
THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ON A
00:09:54.46\00:09:56.42
MAMMAL THAT IS
GOING TO BE EATEN.
00:09:56.46\00:09:57.99
IT SAYS, WHATEVER DOES WHAT?
00:09:58.03\00:09:59.93
PARTS THE HOOF, AND IS
CLOVEN FOOTED - AND CHEWS
00:09:59.96\00:10:04.90
THE CUD - THESE ARE
CLEAN. NOW, THAT WOULD MEAN THAT
00:10:04.93\00:10:09.17
GOAT, SHEEP, DEER,
ELK, MOOSE, THESE THINGS ARE
00:10:09.20\00:10:15.38
WHAT YOU WOULD
CALL 'CLEAN' ANIMALS.
00:10:15.41\00:10:17.81
BUT THEN HE GOES ON TO
SAY SOME THINGS THAT MAY CHEW
00:10:17.85\00:10:20.52
THE CUD - LIKE A CAMEL - BUT
IT DOESN'T HAVE A CLOVEN HOOF.
00:10:20.55\00:10:22.68
IT NEEDED BOTH
CRITERIA - THEY'RE UNCLEAN.
00:10:22.72\00:10:26.45
I KNOW SOME OF YOU ARE
PROBABLY THINKING, 'OH,
00:10:26.49\00:10:27.72
DOUG, YOU TELL ME I
HAVE TO GET RID OF MY CAMEL
00:10:27.76\00:10:29.36
STEAK TONIGHT AFTER THE
PROGRAM.' (LAUGHTER) YES.
00:10:29.39\00:10:32.16
THAT'S WHY JESUS
MADE FUN OF THE PHARISEES.
00:10:32.19\00:10:34.60
HE SAID, 'YOU'RE HYPOCRITES.
00:10:34.63\00:10:36.20
YOU STRAIN A GNAT' -
WHAT HE MEANT BY THAT WAS THEY
00:10:36.23\00:10:38.97
USED TO POUR THEIR
WATER THROUGH THESE STRAINING
00:10:39.00\00:10:41.10
CLOTHS - THEY SAID,
'LEST WE HAVE A GNAT IN THERE
00:10:41.14\00:10:43.91
AND IT'S UNCLEAN.' THEY
WOULD STRAIN THEIR WATER
00:10:43.94\00:10:46.54
TO PREVENT EATING A
GNAT, BUT WHEN NO ONE WAS
00:10:46.57\00:10:48.94
LOOKING THEY'D EAT A
CAMEL STEAK, WHICH WAS UNCLEAN,
00:10:48.98\00:10:51.35
BIBLICALLY. HE
SAYS, 'YOU STRAIN A
00:10:51.38\00:10:53.01
GNAT AND YOU SWALLOW A CAMEL.
00:10:53.05\00:10:54.45
YOU EVER HEARD
THAT EXPRESSION BEFORE?
00:10:54.48\00:10:55.88
THAT'S WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT.
00:10:55.92\00:10:56.65
HE'S SAYING 'YOU'RE HYPOCRITES.
00:10:56.69\00:10:57.69
YOU KNOW CAMEL IS UNCLEAN
BUT YOU'RE SO AFRAID OF A
00:10:57.72\00:10:58.69
LITTLE GNAT AND WHEN
NO ONE'S LOOKING YOU EAT
00:10:58.72\00:11:01.36
CAMEL STEAK.' IF
YOU'RE GOING TO EAT MEAT, IT
00:11:01.39\00:11:05.39
NEEDS TO HAVE
THOSE TWO CRITERIA -
00:11:05.43\00:11:07.60
BE CLOVEN HOOFED
AND CHEW THE CUD.
00:11:07.66\00:11:10.57
NOW THERE ARE SOME OF
YOU WHO ARE THINKING, 'WELL,
00:11:10.60\00:11:11.83
PASTOR DOUG, BUT DIDN'T
- AREN'T HUMANS DESIGNED TO
00:11:11.87\00:11:13.87
EAT MEAT AND ISN'T THAT
WHY GOD GAVE US THESE, YOU
00:11:13.90\00:11:15.97
KNOW, CANINE TEETH FOR THE
RIPPING AND TEARING OF MEAT.
00:11:16.00\00:11:18.64
SEE THIS
CHARACTER ON THE SCREEN?
00:11:18.67\00:11:25.41
HE'S GOT CANINE TEETH
TOO. HE'S A VEGETARIAN.
00:11:25.45\00:11:28.98
SO IT'S JUST - THERE'S
ALL KINDS OF MYTHS OUT THERE.
00:11:29.02\00:11:31.05
MATTER OF FACT, THE
ANIMAL WITH THE BIGGEST TEETH IS
00:11:31.09\00:11:32.79
AN ELEPHANT AND HIPPO -
THEY'RE ALL VEGETARIANS.
00:11:32.82\00:11:36.09
>>WE'VE ALL HEARD
ABOUT THE HEALTHCARE CRISIS.
00:11:36.12\00:11:38.96
DID YOU KNOW THE BIBLE TELLS
US WHAT THE ANSWER IS FOR THE
00:11:38.99\00:11:41.63
HEALTHCARE CRISIS? FIRST
OF ALL, IF PEOPLE WEREN'T
00:11:41.66\00:11:44.27
SO SICK, THERE
WOULDN'T BE A CRISIS.
00:11:44.30\00:11:46.87
THE REASON IS BECAUSE MANY
PEOPLE ARE NOT FOLLOWING THE
00:11:46.90\00:11:49.07
SIMPLE PRINCIPLES OF HEALTH
YOU CAN FIND IN GOD'S WORD.
00:11:49.10\00:11:52.67
THAT'S RIGHT, THERE ARE ABOUT
SEVEN MAJOR SECRETS FOR GOOD
00:11:52.71\00:11:55.51
HEALTH AND LONG
LIFE IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:55.54\00:11:57.91

WE WANT TO GET THE WORD OUT
BECAUSE GOD'S MESSAGE IS OUR
00:12:20.10\00:12:23.54
MISSION.
00:12:23.57\00:12:25.27
LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED
BIBLICALLY WHEN - BEFORE
00:12:25.31\00:12:28.74
THE FLOOD, YOU CAN SEE
- OF COURSE THERE WAS LOTS
00:12:28.78\00:12:31.78
OF VEGETATION BACK THEN
- YOU'VE GOT METHUSELAH -
00:12:31.81\00:12:35.32
969 YEARS, NOAH - 950
YEARS, SETH - 912 YEARS.
00:12:35.35\00:12:39.35
IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE
FLOOD IT DROPS DOWN TO 500
00:12:39.39\00:12:42.99
YEARS, 200 YEARS,
ABRAHAM - 175 YEARS, JACOB -
00:12:43.02\00:12:47.03
147 YEARS, DAVID 70 YEARS.
00:12:47.03\00:12:50.90
AND DAVID SAID, 'NOW OUR
YEARS ARE THREE-SCORE AND
00:12:50.93\00:12:53.80
TEN.' THAT'S ABOUT
70 - AS AN AVERAGE.
00:12:53.84\00:12:56.24
AND HE SAID, 'IF, BY
REASON OF STRENGTH, IT'S
00:12:56.27\00:12:57.77
FOUR-SCORE' - THAT'S 80
- HE SAID, 'IT'S STILL WITH
00:12:57.81\00:13:00.11
MUCH PAIN AND SUFFERING.'
AND SO OUR TIME IS LIMITED.
00:13:00.14\00:13:04.81
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED AFTER THE FLOOD?
00:13:04.85\00:13:07.05
ALL THE
VEGETATION WAS DESTROYED.
00:13:07.08\00:13:08.62
NOAH WAS TOLD TO TAKE
THE CLEAN ANIMALS ON THE ARK
00:13:08.65\00:13:12.02
BY SEVENS -
UNCLEAN JUST TWO. WHY?
00:13:12.05\00:13:15.52
IF THEY WERE ALLOWED
TO EAT THE UNCLEAN ANIMALS
00:13:15.56\00:13:17.63
THERE WOULD BE A LOT
MORE EXTINCT SPECIES, RIGHT?
00:13:17.66\00:13:20.00
THEY WOULD HAVE EATEN
THEM DURING THE FLOOD.
00:13:20.03\00:13:21.63
BUT YOU'RE ONLY
ALLOWED TO SACRIFICE THE CLEAN
00:13:21.66\00:13:24.07
ANIMALS. WHAT TYPES OF FISH AND
00:13:24.10\00:13:26.47
SEAFOOD ARE
CONSIDERED CLEAN, BIBLICALLY?
00:13:26.50\00:13:29.37
LEVITICUS 11, VERSE 9,
"THESE YOU MAY EAT OF ALL
00:13:29.40\00:13:33.64
THAT ARE IN THE WATER:
WHATEVER...HAS FINS AND
00:13:33.68\00:13:39.08
SCALES," - IT NEEDED
BOTH CHARACTERISTICS TO BE
00:13:39.11\00:13:41.35
CLEAN AND THE REASON FOR
THAT WAS THERE'S A LOT OF
00:13:41.38\00:13:45.72
STRANGE THINGS THAT ARE
OUT THERE IN THE OCEAN AND
00:13:45.75\00:13:47.99
SOME OF THEM ARE
POISONOUS. YOU KNOW, THE U.S.
00:13:48.02\00:13:51.06
NAVY DID A STUDY A FEW
YEARS AGO WHERE THEY SAID,
00:13:51.09\00:13:54.66
'WHAT DO WE GIVE, AS A
RULE OF THUMB, TO SAILORS
00:13:54.73\00:13:57.27
OR PILOTS THAT ARE SHOT
DOWN - IF THEY NEED TO EAT
00:13:57.30\00:13:59.83
SEAFOOD WHILE THEY'RE
FLOATING AROUND ON THESE
00:13:59.87\00:14:01.70
RAFTS - BECAUSE
DURING WORLD WAR II A LOT OF
00:14:01.74\00:14:03.30
THEM, THEY DIDN'T
KNOW WHAT THEY COULD AND
00:14:03.34\00:14:05.11
COULDN'T EAT.
THEY SPENT MILLIONS OF
00:14:05.14\00:14:07.08
GOVERNMENT DOLLARS.
THEY DID A STUDY AND YOU
00:14:07.11\00:14:08.94
KNOW WHAT THEY CAME BACK WITH?
00:14:08.98\00:14:10.41
THIS IS WHAT THE NAVY
STUDY CONCLUDED: IF IT HAS
00:14:10.45\00:14:13.65
FINS AND SCALES IT'S
PROBABLY SAFE TO EAT.
00:14:13.68\00:14:17.19
THEY COULD HAVE SAVED
SO MUCH MONEY AND JUST READ
00:14:17.22\00:14:19.02
WHAT THE BIBLE SAID.
(LAUGHTER) NOW YOU CAN
00:14:19.05\00:14:22.56
READ ON THERE IN
LEVITICUS AND IT SAYS THERE IN
00:14:22.59\00:14:25.59
LEVITICUS 11, VERSE
10, "BUT ALL IN THE SEAS OR
00:14:25.63\00:14:29.03
IN THE RIVERS THAT DO
NOT HAVE FINS AND SCALES," -
00:14:29.06\00:14:32.30
THAT MEANS RIVERS,
SEAS, LAKES - ALL THE OTHER
00:14:32.33\00:14:34.27
WATER CREATURES - "THAT
DO NOT HAVE FINS AND SCALES,
00:14:34.30\00:14:37.77
ALL THAT MOVE IN THE WATER OR
ANY LIVING THING WHICH IS IN THE
00:14:37.81\00:14:40.74
WATER, THEY ARE AN
ABOMINATION TO YOU."
00:14:40.78\00:14:44.18
WHY DOESN'T GOD WANT
US TO EAT CERTAIN THINGS?
00:14:44.21\00:14:47.05
THESE ANIMALS - CRABS,
LOBSTERS - YOU KNOW HOW
00:14:47.08\00:14:49.68
THEY CATCH THEM?
THEY'RE SCAVENGERS.
00:14:49.72\00:14:52.02
THEY PUT SOME DECOMPOSING
FISH HEAD IN A TRAP AND
00:14:52.05\00:14:55.12
THEY ARE MADE BY GOD TO
BE THE GARBAGE CANS IN THE
00:14:55.16\00:14:57.99
WORLD TO CLEAN THE ENVIRONMENT.
00:14:58.03\00:14:59.73
THEY EAT ALL THE
TOXINS. CLAMS - THEY SOAK
00:14:59.76\00:15:02.63
UP ALL THE TOXINS.
WE HAVE ONE PRESIDENT
00:15:02.66\00:15:04.23
THAT DIED FROM
EATING CONTAMINATED OYSTERS.
00:15:04.27\00:15:07.07
AND THESE THINGS ARE
JUST - THEY'RE NOT HEALTHY.
00:15:07.10\00:15:11.91
SHRIMP - WHEN THEY
SERVE SHRIMP, THEY SERVE IT
00:15:11.94\00:15:13.78
COMPLETE WITH THE
INTESTINES - ARE STILL -
00:15:13.81\00:15:16.75
THE DIGESTIVE
TRACK IS STILL IN THERE.
00:15:16.78\00:15:18.15
THAT'S NOT GOD'S - THAT
STUFF'S NOT GOOD FOR YOU.
00:15:18.18\00:15:20.45
THERE'S - DOWN IN THE
BOTTOM OF THE BAY WHERE
00:15:20.48\00:15:22.82
YOU GET THE OYSTERS AND
THE CLAMS ARE ALL THE TOXINS.
00:15:22.85\00:15:25.29
THEY'RE - THESE ANIMALS
ARE MADE BY GOD TO FILTER
00:15:25.32\00:15:27.39
AND HELP CLEAN THE ENVIRONMENT.
00:15:27.42\00:15:28.92
SAME THING WITH CERTAIN
BIRDS THAT ARE CONSIDERED
00:15:28.96\00:15:31.93
UNCLEAN. WHICH
BIRDS ARE UNCLEAN?
00:15:31.96\00:15:35.16
IN LEVITICUS 11, VERSES
15 AND 16, IT SAYS, "EVERY
00:15:35.20\00:15:40.57
RAVEN AFTER ITS
KIND, AND THE OWL, AND THE
00:15:40.60\00:15:46.61
NIGHTHAWK, AND
THE CUCKOW...AFTER ITS
00:15:46.64\00:15:50.18
KIND," - THE RAPTORS AND
THE CARNIVOROUS BIRDS WERE
00:15:50.21\00:15:53.65
CONSIDERED UNCLEAN.
THE CLEAN BIRDS - THERE'S
00:15:53.68\00:15:56.72
NOT A RULE LIKE FINS
AND SCALES - BUT THE CLEAN
00:15:56.75\00:16:00.06
BIRDS WERE THE
FORAGING BIRDS - TURKEY, THE
00:16:00.09\00:16:03.53
CHICKENS, PHEASANT, SO
FORTH - THEY WOULD BE CLEAN.
00:16:03.56\00:16:06.49
ARE THE LAWS ABOUT
CLEAN AND UNCLEAN ANIMALS PART
00:16:06.53\00:16:09.03
OF MOSES' CEREMONIAL LAW
WHICH ENDED AT THE CROSS?
00:16:09.06\00:16:13.34
THIS IS WHAT SOME PEOPLE THINK.
00:16:13.37\00:16:14.97
GENESIS 7, VERSES 1 AND
2 - SOME PEOPLE SAY, 'OH,
00:16:15.00\00:16:19.27
THOSE ARE LAWS JUST
FOR THE JEWS' - THOSE CLEAN
00:16:19.31\00:16:22.44
AND UNCLEAN
LAWS. WAS NOAH JEWISH?
00:16:22.48\00:16:26.68
LET'S READ THIS TOGETHER:
"...COME THOU AND ALL THY
00:16:26.72\00:16:30.25
HOUSE INTO THE
ARK...OF EVERY CLEAN BEAST THOU
00:16:30.29\00:16:35.49
SHALL TAKE TO THEE BY SEVENS."
00:16:35.52\00:16:38.16
SO DOES GOD MAKE A
DISTINCTION BETWEEN CLEAN
00:16:38.19\00:16:40.50
AND UNCLEAN ANIMALS EVEN
BEFORE THERE WERE ANY JEWS?
00:16:40.53\00:16:45.27
QUIZ: HOW MANY OF
YOU ARE RELATED TO NOAH?
00:16:45.30\00:16:49.80
>>ALL OF US. >>THAT'S RIGHT!
00:16:49.84\00:16:52.24
EVERYBODY HERE - AND SO IF
GOD MADE IT - THIS IS A TEST.
00:16:52.27\00:16:56.11
I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF
YOU MANAGED - YOUR ANCESTORS
00:16:56.14\00:16:57.78
SURVIVED THE FLOOD,
BESIDES NOAH - EVERYBODY
00:16:57.81\00:17:01.02
HERE IS RELATED TO
NOAH. GOD MADE A DISTINCTION -
00:17:01.05\00:17:03.65
THESE ARE THINGS THAT
WERE FOR MANKIND - YOU CAN SEE
00:17:03.69\00:17:05.79
IT GOING ALL THE
WAY BACK TO GENESIS.
00:17:05.82\00:17:07.66
SHOULD A CHRISTIAN,
BIBLICALLY, USE ALCOHOLIC
00:17:07.69\00:17:10.79
BEVERAGES? SOME
CHURCHES WOULD SAY,
00:17:10.83\00:17:13.50
'SURE, WHAT'S WRONG
WITH THAT? JESUS DRANK WINE.'
00:17:13.53\00:17:15.43
IT WAS NOT
ALCOHOLIC, IT WAS GRAPE JUICE.
00:17:15.46\00:17:18.67
THE BIBLE SAYS - PROVERBS
21 - AND THE BIBLE DOESN'T
00:17:18.70\00:17:21.00
CONTRADICT ITSELF -
"WINE IS A MOCKER, STRONG DRINK
00:17:21.04\00:17:26.11
IS RAGING" - IT'S TALKING
ABOUT FERMENTED WINE HERE
00:17:26.14\00:17:29.18
- "AND WHOEVER IS
DECEIVED THEREBY IS NOT WISE."
00:17:29.21\00:17:32.85
THE BIBLE SAYS 'GIVE
WINE TO HIM THAT IS READY TO
00:17:32.88\00:17:35.52
PERISH.' THE BIBLE
TELLS US THAT NOAH DRANK WINE
00:17:35.55\00:17:39.22
AND HE STUMBLED
AROUND NAKED AND SOMETHING
00:17:39.25\00:17:41.66
EMBARRASSING HAPPENED.
LOT'S DAUGHTERS GAVE THEIR
00:17:41.69\00:17:45.19
FATHER WINE AND HE
SLEPT WITH HIS DAUGHTERS.
00:17:45.23\00:17:49.03
GOOD THINGS DO NOT HAPPEN
WHEN PEOPLE DRINK ALCOHOL.
00:17:49.06\00:17:52.50
CHRISTIANS SHOULD
NOT UNDERWRITE THAT.
00:17:52.53\00:17:54.50
AND YOU MIGHT BE SAYING,
'PASTOR DOUG, I JUST HAVE,
00:17:54.54\00:17:55.94
YOU KNOW, A LITTLE
BIT OF WINE ONCE A WEEK.
00:17:55.97\00:17:58.77
JUST A LITTLE - I HAVE
NO PROBLEM - I DON'T HAVE A
00:17:58.81\00:18:00.51
DRINKING PROBLEM.' THAT
MAY BE, BUT ARE YOU AWARE
00:18:00.54\00:18:04.35
THAT ONE OUT OF SEVEN PEOPLE
DOES HAVE A DRINKING PROBLEM?
00:18:04.38\00:18:06.98
ALCOHOL IS
ADDICTIVE. DO WE ALL KNOW THAT?
00:18:07.02\00:18:10.75
SOME PEOPLE - IT
JUST WRECKS THEIR LIVES.
00:18:10.79\00:18:12.89
IT WRECKS THEIR MARRIAGES.
00:18:12.92\00:18:13.89
IT WRECKS THEIR
CAREERS. IT WRECKS THEIR HEALTH.
00:18:13.92\00:18:17.29
THERE WILL BE PEOPLE
IN HEAVEN THAT SMOKED.
00:18:17.33\00:18:20.76
I WANT TO MAKE IT
CLEAR. THERE ARE GOING TO BE
00:18:20.80\00:18:22.23
PEOPLE THAT DRANK ALCOHOL
- MARTIN LUTHER DRANK BEER.
00:18:22.26\00:18:24.63
I DON'T THINK THEY
UNDERSTOOD BACK THEN WHAT
00:18:24.67\00:18:26.50
WE UNDERSTAND. THE
MAN WHO WROTE AMAZING
00:18:26.53\00:18:28.20
GRACE, JOHN NEWTON, HE SMOKED.
DO YOU KNOW, BACK WHEN HE
00:18:28.24\00:18:31.67
SMOKED, DOCTORS ACTUALLY
PRESCRIBED TOBACCO FOR ASTHMA.
00:18:31.71\00:18:36.08
CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT?
HOW MANY OF YOU KNEW THAT?
00:18:36.11\00:18:39.28
YEAH, BUT WE KNOW BETTER NOW.
00:18:39.31\00:18:43.62
CIGARETTES ARE THE NUMBER
TWO LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH
00:18:43.65\00:18:47.62
- PREVENTABLE CAUSE OF
DEATH - IN NORTH AMERICA -
00:18:47.66\00:18:50.26
TOBACCO. IT MAKES
YOU PREMATURELY AGE.
00:18:50.29\00:18:53.46
IT'LL MAKE YOUR
VOICE RASPY AND MAKES YOUR
00:18:53.50\00:18:57.03
CLOTHES SMELL
FUNNY. TOBACCO - THERE'S
00:18:57.07\00:19:00.27
NOTHING GOOD ABOUT
IT. THERE'S NO NUTRITIONAL
00:19:00.30\00:19:02.00
VALUE AND IT COSTS A FORTUNE.
00:19:02.04\00:19:04.14
WHEN I WAS A KID IT WAS
TWENTY-FIVE CENTS A PACK.
00:19:04.17\00:19:06.61
MAN, I CAN'T BELIEVE
WHAT PEOPLE PAY FOR A PACK OF
00:19:06.64\00:19:08.48
CIGARETTES NOW. YOU
CAN BUY A NEW CAR AFTER
00:19:08.51\00:19:11.11
QUITTING FOR A COUPLE OF
YEARS. (LAUGHTER) ARE THE BIBLE
00:19:11.15\00:19:14.52
HEALTH PRINCIPLES
STILL PRACTICAL TODAY?
00:19:14.55\00:19:17.42
NOW WE'RE GOING TO GO
THROUGH A LIST OF SEVERAL
00:19:17.45\00:19:18.75
BIBLE PRINCIPLES AND
THESE ARE HEALTH PRINCIPLES AND
00:19:18.79\00:19:22.62
YOU ARE GOING TO BE
SURPRISED HOW MUCH OF THE
00:19:22.66\00:19:24.29
WORLD, NOW, IS
REALIZING THESE ARE BASIC HEALTH
00:19:24.33\00:19:26.90
LAWS - THEY'RE ALL IN THE BIBLE.
00:19:26.93\00:19:29.56
FIRST OF ALL,
QUARANTINE PROCEDURES CONTROL
00:19:29.60\00:19:33.07
CONTAGIOUS
DISEASE. WITH THIS EBOLA
00:19:33.10\00:19:37.24
DISCUSSION, WHAT
ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT?
00:19:37.27\00:19:39.84
LOOK AT THE INCREDIBLE
LENGTHS THEY'RE GOING TO
00:19:39.87\00:19:42.81
TO MAINTAIN A STERILE
ENVIRONMENT AND QUARANTINE
00:19:42.84\00:19:45.21
PROCEDURES. IN THE
BIBLE, GOD GAVE THAT.
00:19:45.25\00:19:48.22
HE SAID IF SOMEONE
IS UNCLEAN, THEY NEED TO
00:19:48.25\00:19:49.88
WASH, THEY NEED TO STAY
OUTSIDE THE CAMP, THEY'RE
00:19:49.92\00:19:51.25
CONTAGIOUS - THERE'S ALL
KINDS OF LAWS ABOUT CONTAGION.
00:19:51.29\00:19:54.39
THEY UNDERSTOOD
THIS IN THE BIBLE.
00:19:54.42\00:19:56.56
NUMBER TWO - BASIC
THING, AGAIN, CONNECTED WITH
00:19:56.59\00:19:59.19
EBOLA - IF THESE
THINGS WERE BEING PRACTICED IN
00:19:59.23\00:20:02.13
SOME OF THE COUNTRIES -
IT SAYS HUMAN BODY WASTE
00:20:02.16\00:20:05.73
SHOULD BE BURIED.
NOW, I KNOW, IT MAY NOT BE
00:20:05.77\00:20:09.64
PLEASANT TO THINK
ABOUT THAT, BUT IF YOU'VE
00:20:09.67\00:20:11.47
TRAVELED - MANY PARTS
OF THE WORLD I GO TO, EVEN
00:20:11.51\00:20:14.84
IN BIG CITIES, THEY
STILL DON'T HAVE REGULAR
00:20:14.88\00:20:17.58
SANITATION AND - I
KNOW, IT WOULD SHOCK YOU.
00:20:17.61\00:20:21.32
AND I WON'T NAME THOSE
COUNTRIES BECAUSE I DON'T
00:20:21.35\00:20:22.58
WANT TO OFFEND ANYBODY
NOW, BUT WAY BACK IN THE
00:20:22.62\00:20:25.55
BIBLE, EVEN GOING THROUGH
THE DESERT, GOD GAVE THEM
00:20:25.59\00:20:27.49
CERTAIN RULES ABOUT
THAT. C - WASHING - REGULAR
00:20:27.52\00:20:32.36
WASHING OF THE BODY AND
CLOTHING CONTROLS GERMS.
00:20:32.39\00:20:35.70
YOU KNOW, THAT'S IN THE BIBLE?
00:20:35.73\00:20:37.47
THEY HAD TO REGULARLY WASH.
00:20:37.50\00:20:38.93
EVEN AS THEY WENT THROUGH
THE WILDERNESS, GOD ALWAYS
00:20:38.97\00:20:40.87
MADE SURE THEY
HAD A WATER SUPPLY.
00:20:40.90\00:20:43.30
MOSES WOULD STRIKE THE
ROCK AND WATER WOULD RUN
00:20:43.34\00:20:45.57
OUT AND THIS RIVER
SEEMED TO BE REPRODUCED AND
00:20:45.61\00:20:47.91
FOLLOWED THEM WHEREVER
THEY WENT IN THEIR JOURNEYS
00:20:47.94\00:20:49.48
SO THEY COULD NOT ONLY
DRINK, BUT SO THEY COULD WASH.
00:20:49.51\00:20:53.48
AND FREQUENTLY IT
TALKED ABOUT WASHING.
00:20:53.52\00:20:55.45
THE BIBLE TELLS US THAT
A LOT OF DISEASE COULD ALSO
00:20:55.48\00:20:58.12
BE PREVENTED, AS WE
KNOW TODAY, BY MORAL LIVING.
00:20:58.15\00:21:02.66
IT PREVENTS SEXUAL DISEASES.
LEVITICUS 18; PROVERBS 5,
00:21:02.69\00:21:07.50
VERSES 1 THROUGH 12
AND MANY OTHER VERSES.
00:21:07.50\00:21:10.10
THERE ARE A NUMBER
OF SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED
00:21:10.13\00:21:12.53
DISEASES AND SOME
PEOPLE HAVE RECEIVED FATAL
00:21:12.57\00:21:16.27
INFECTIONS BECAUSE
OF IMMORAL LIFESTYLE.
00:21:16.30\00:21:20.21
ANSWER E - ANOTHER
BIBLE PRINCIPLE ABOUT HEALTH -
00:21:20.24\00:21:23.45
ANIMAL FAT SHOULD NOT BE
EATEN - NOT ONLY FAT, BUT
00:21:23.48\00:21:27.38
BLOOD. YOU KNOW, DISEASE CAN BE
00:21:27.42\00:21:29.65
TRANSFERRED FROM
ANIMAL TO ANIMAL.
00:21:29.68\00:21:32.19
YOU DON'T CATCH A
DISEASE FROM A PLANT. -
00:21:32.22\00:21:33.86
YOU MIGHT GET POISON IVY -
BUT DISEASE CAN BE TRANSFERRED
00:21:33.89\00:21:36.62
FROM ANIMAL TO ANIMAL AND HE
SAYS WE SHOULD NOT EAT BLOOD.
00:21:36.66\00:21:41.06
BY THE WAY, NEW
TESTAMENT/OLD TESTAMENT,
00:21:41.10\00:21:43.13
BOTH SAY BLOOD IS FORBIDDEN.
00:21:43.16\00:21:44.83
ACTS 15 - READ IT
YOURSELF - NO QUESTION ABOUT IT.
00:21:44.87\00:21:47.80
SOME PEOPLE SAY, 'THESE
ARE OLD TESTAMENT LAWS.'
00:21:47.84\00:21:49.64
IT'S REPEATED IN
THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:21:49.67\00:21:51.51
F - ANOTHER PRINCIPLE -
HATRED AND BITTERNESS IS
00:21:51.54\00:21:55.11
DETRIMENTAL TO ONE'S HEALTH.
00:21:55.14\00:21:57.11
SOME PEOPLE ARE SICK,
NOT JUST BECAUSE OF WHAT
00:21:57.15\00:21:58.95
THEY'RE EATING, BUT
BECAUSE OF WHAT'S EATING THEM.
00:21:58.98\00:22:02.08
AND HAVING ANGER AND
BITTERNESS IN YOUR HEART -
00:22:02.12\00:22:06.02
STRESS - IT REALLY
DOES CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS.
00:22:06.05\00:22:09.59
G - PROVERBS TALKS ABOUT
OVEREATING IS BAD FOR YOUR
00:22:09.62\00:22:12.99
HEALTH.
(LAUGHTER) IT'S ONE THING
00:22:13.03\00:22:15.03
TO EAT HONEY, IT
SAYS DON'T EAT TOO MUCH.
00:22:15.06\00:22:17.93
AND YOU CAN EVEN EAT
TOO MUCH OF GOOD THINGS.
00:22:17.97\00:22:20.94
AND SUMO WRESTLERS
USUALLY DON'T DIE OF OLD AGE
00:22:20.97\00:22:25.51
BECAUSE IT'S JUST,
OBVIOUSLY, NOT GOOD.
00:22:25.54\00:22:29.31
H - OUR BODIES NEED PROPER REST.
00:22:29.34\00:22:32.45
PSALMS 127, VERSE 2 AND
MARK 6:31 - THE SABBATH IS
00:22:32.48\00:22:37.35
ALL ABOUT THAT -
GETTING PLENTY OF SLEEP.
00:22:37.39\00:22:40.52
ANSWER I - THE
IMPORTANCE OF WORK.
00:22:40.56\00:22:44.99
NOT ONLY DOES IT SAY
REST THE SEVENTH DAY, IT SAYS
00:22:45.03\00:22:46.86
SIX DAYS THOU SHALT WHAT?
WORK. ANSWER J - A POSITIVE
00:22:46.90\00:22:52.40
ATTITUDE IS GOOD MEDICINE.
THE LORD WANTS US TO HAVE
00:22:52.43\00:22:56.24
GOOD ATTI - A HAPPY
HEART IS GOOD LIKE A MEDICINE.
00:22:56.27\00:22:58.71
AND EVEN WHEN I TEACH
SOME OF THESE DIFFICULT TRUTHS,
00:22:58.74\00:23:00.91
YOU KNOW, I THINK WE
SOMETIMES NEED TO BE ABLE
00:23:00.94\00:23:03.24
TO SMILE BECAUSE
LIFE IS TOUGH ENOUGH.
00:23:03.28\00:23:06.58
ANSWER K - THE
PARENTS HABITS WILL AFFECT THE
00:23:06.61\00:23:10.12
CHILDREN. AND
SO, WHATEVER PARENTS
00:23:10.15\00:23:13.46
DO, UNTO THE THIRD AND
FOURTH GENERATION IT OFTEN
00:23:13.49\00:23:15.82
AFFECTS THE
CHILDREN. PARENTS THAT SMOKE -
00:23:15.86\00:23:19.03
MUCH HIGHER CHANCE
THEIR CHILDREN WILL SMOKE.
00:23:19.06\00:23:21.13
PARENTS THAT DRINK
- MUCH HIGHER CHANCE.
00:23:21.16\00:23:23.10
A LOT OF FAMILIES SAID,
'OH WELL, YOU KNOW, I GAIN
00:23:23.13\00:23:25.27
WEIGHT BECAUSE IT JUST IS
IN MY FAMILY.' YOU DID NOT
00:23:25.30\00:23:28.00
INHERIT GAINING
WEIGHT FROM YOUR PARENTS, YOU
00:23:28.04\00:23:29.80
INHERITED, USUALLY,
YOUR EATING HABITS FROM YOUR
00:23:29.84\00:23:32.81
PARENTS, WHICH MEANS
YOU'LL END UP WITH THE
00:23:32.84\00:23:35.08
SAME SIZE. AND
SO, A LOT OF THAT IS
00:23:35.11\00:23:38.18
PASSED ON BY
LIFESTYLE THAT WE LEARN.
00:23:38.21\00:23:42.28
IS GOD CONCERNED
WITH OUR PHYSICAL HEALTH?
00:23:42.32\00:23:45.32
'I THINK GOD'S ONLY
CONCERNED WITH SPIRITUAL
00:23:45.35\00:23:46.72
THINGS.' IS THAT
WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES?
00:23:46.76\00:23:49.12
MATTHEW 4:23, "AND
JESUS WENT ABOUT ALL GALILEE,
00:23:49.16\00:23:54.20
TEACHING IN THEIR
SYNAGOGUES, AND PREACHING
00:23:54.23\00:23:56.50
THE GOSPEL OF THE
KINGDOM, AND" - DOING WHAT?
00:23:56.53\00:23:59.43
>>HEALING.
>>"HEALING ALL MANNER OF
00:23:59.47\00:24:01.54
SICKNESS AND ALL MANNER
OF DISEASE AMONG THE PEOPLE."
00:24:01.57\00:24:05.77
DOES THE LORD
CARE ABOUT OUR HEALTH?
00:24:05.81\00:24:08.31
>>YES. >>YES. AND
HE, MANY TIMES, WILL
00:24:08.34\00:24:10.88
MIRACULOUSLY HEAL
PEOPLE. SOMETIMES SICKNESS COMES
00:24:10.91\00:24:14.12
JUST BECAUSE OF GENETICS,
SOMETIMES SICKNESS COMES
00:24:14.15\00:24:16.22
BECAUSE YOU'RE EXPOSED
TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO IS SICK,
00:24:16.25\00:24:18.69
THERE MIGHT BE SOME
ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM BUT,
00:24:18.72\00:24:20.86
YOU KNOW, THE MAJORITY OF
SICKNESS IN OUR COUNTRY IS
00:24:20.89\00:24:24.36
SELF-INDUCED
BECAUSE OF LIFESTYLE.
00:24:24.39\00:24:28.20
YOU KNOW WHY THERE'S A
HEALTH-CARE CRISIS AND THE
00:24:28.23\00:24:31.27
MEDICAL INSTITUTIONS ARE
BANKRUPT AND SO EXPENSIVE?
00:24:31.30\00:24:35.04
BECAUSE OF OUR
LIFESTYLES, IN PARTICULAR IN THE
00:24:35.07\00:24:37.41
WESTERN CULTURES, BECAUSE
THE RICH LIFE, THE LACK OF
00:24:37.44\00:24:40.61
EXERCISE, AND THE
ABUNDANCE, PEOPLE ARE
00:24:40.64\00:24:42.91
BRINGING ON DISEASES
EARLY IN LIFE AND THEN THEY ARE
00:24:42.94\00:24:45.68
STRUGGLING WITH THESE
DISEASES FOR MANY YEARS
00:24:45.71\00:24:48.08
AND IT'S CAUSING
CATASTROPHIC EXPENSES.
00:24:48.12\00:24:51.72
WE'D BE ABLE TO PUT A
LOT OF HOSPITALS OUT OF
00:24:51.75\00:24:53.49
BUSINESS IF WE'D
JUST FOLLOW THE BIBLE.
00:24:53.52\00:24:56.12
3 JOHN 2, "BELOVED, I
WISH ABOVE ALL THINGS" - GOD
00:24:56.16\00:25:01.03
SAYS, 'ABOVE ALL THINGS.'
- "THAT YOU MAY" - WHAT?
00:25:01.06\00:25:04.57
- "PROSPER AND BE IN
HEALTH," - HOW? "JUST AS YOUR
00:25:04.60\00:25:09.00
SOUL PROSPERS."
SO WHAT KIND OF LEVEL
00:25:09.04\00:25:11.51
DOES HE PUT IT ON? 'I
WANT HEALTH - PHYSICAL
00:25:11.54\00:25:13.84
PROSPERITY - AND I
WANT SPIRITUAL PROSPERITY.
00:25:13.88\00:25:16.18
NOW, IF YOU CAN ONLY
PICK ONE, PICK THE SPIRITUAL
00:25:16.21\00:25:18.91
BECAUSE WHAT PROFIT IS IT
IF YOU HAVE PERFECT HEALTH
00:25:18.95\00:25:20.82
AND YOU'RE A TERRIBLE SINNER?
00:25:20.85\00:25:22.35
IT'S NOT GOING TO
SAVE YOU FOR ETERNITY.
00:25:22.38\00:25:23.99
BUT GOD SAYS, 'YOU KNOW,
WHEN YOU'VE TAKEN CARE OF
00:25:24.02\00:25:25.82
THE SPIRIT, MAKE SURE
AND TAKE CARE OF THE BODY
00:25:25.85\00:25:27.82
BECAUSE HAVING YOUR
MIND CLEAR AND YOUR BODY
00:25:27.86\00:25:31.13
HEALTHY MAKES IT
EASIER TO SERVE GOD -
00:25:31.16\00:25:33.76
TO RESIST THE
DEVIL AND DO GOD'S WILL.
00:25:33.80\00:25:36.03
ANOTHER ONE - JOHN 10:10
- IT SAYS, "...I HAVE COME
00:25:36.06\00:25:40.24
THAT THEY MAY HAVE
LIFE, AND" - AND WHAT KIND OF
00:25:40.27\00:25:42.34
LIFE DOES HE WANT US TO
HAVE? - "...MORE ABUNDANTLY."
00:25:42.37\00:25:45.71
YOU SEE THE
FELLOW IN THAT PICTURE?
00:25:45.74\00:25:47.41
HIS NAME WAS BANANA GEORGE.
00:25:47.44\00:25:49.24
HE IS SKIING
BAREFOOT - I'VE DONE THAT.
00:25:49.28\00:25:52.25
THAT IS VERY, VERY HARD
FOR A YOUNG MAN TO DO - HE
00:25:52.28\00:25:55.45
IS, I THINK, 80
YEARS OLD IN THIS PICTURE.
00:25:55.48\00:25:57.55
HE CONTINUED SKIING
UNTIL 92 - DIDN'T EVEN START
00:25:57.59\00:26:00.62
SKIING UNTIL HE WAS IN
HIS FORTIES - HE LOVED BANANAS
00:26:00.66\00:26:03.99
AND THAT'S WHY HE
ALWAYS WORE YELLOW.
00:26:04.03\00:26:05.43
HE PASSED AWAY WAY UP
IN HIS 90S IN 2013, BUT I
00:26:05.46\00:26:09.43
ALWAYS WAS
FASCINATED BY THAT PICTURE.
00:26:09.46\00:26:11.23
HERE'S A PICTURE
SOMEONE JUST GAVE ME THIS YEAR.
00:26:11.27\00:26:13.80
THIS IS SOMEONE - KAREN
AND I WERE PASTORS OF THIS
00:26:13.84\00:26:16.94
CHURCH IN NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA AND ONE SISTER,
00:26:16.97\00:26:19.37
LAST TIME WE
SAW HER SHE WAS 106.
00:26:19.41\00:26:21.91
AT THE TIME OF THIS
ARTICLE - SHE PASSED AWAY
00:26:21.94\00:26:24.05
SINCE - SHE WAS 111
THEN. AND I REMEMBER I SAT WITH
00:26:24.08\00:26:27.98
HER AND HER BROTHER-IN-LAW
AND HIS WIFE - HER NAME
00:26:28.02\00:26:32.09
WAS VIOLA COOK - IN THEIR
HOME AND I WOULD EAT WITH THEM.
00:26:32.12\00:26:34.46
THEY HAD DELICIOUS VEGETARIAN
FOOD - SHE WAS A VEGETARIAN
00:26:34.49\00:26:36.46
HER WHOLE LIFE.
AND I REMEMBER HER
00:26:36.49\00:26:38.53
BROTHER-IN-LAW - I USED
TO SAY, 'ART, HOW DO YOU GUYS
00:26:38.56\00:26:42.00
HAVE SUCH GREAT
HEALTH AND STRENGTH?'
00:26:42.03\00:26:43.70
HERE I WAS A YOUNG
WHIPPERSNAPPER - I'D TRY
00:26:43.73\00:26:44.80
AND DO WORK FOR THEM - I
COULDN'T KEEP UP WITH THEM.
00:26:44.83\00:26:47.04
AND I NOTICED HE
PUSHED AWAY FROM THE TABLE.
00:26:47.07\00:26:49.07
I SAID, 'YOU'RE DONE EATING?'
00:26:49.10\00:26:50.01
HE SAID, 'HERE'S THE
SECRET TO LIFE, DOUG.
00:26:50.04\00:26:53.14
STOP EATING WHILE
YOU'RE STILL A LITTLE HUNGRY.
00:26:53.17\00:26:55.68
WAKE UP WHEN YOU'RE
STILL A LITTLE TIRED.
00:26:55.71\00:26:58.61
AND STOP TALKING WHEN
YOU STILL HAVE SOMETHING LEFT
00:26:58.65\00:27:00.52
TO SAY. (LAUGHTER) SO THAT'S
THE SECRET TO HAPPINESS IN LIFE.
00:27:00.55\00:27:05.99
WHY IS OUR HEALTH
SO IMPORTANT TO GOD?
00:27:06.02\00:27:08.89
1 CORINTHIANS 6:19,
"...YOUR BODY" - AND VERSE
00:27:08.92\00:27:13.50
20 - "IS THE" -
WHAT? >>THE TEMPLE.
00:27:13.53\00:27:15.90
>>"THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT...THEREFORE GLORIFY
00:27:15.93\00:27:20.30
GOD IN YOUR BODY AND IN
YOUR SPIRIT, WHICH ARE GOD'S."
00:27:20.34\00:27:24.67
AGAIN, ROMANS 12:1,
"...PRESENT YOUR BODY A
00:27:24.71\00:27:28.54
LIVING SACRIFICE" -
HOW? - "HOLY AND ACCEPTABLE
00:27:28.58\00:27:32.71
TO GOD, WHICH IS
YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE."
00:27:32.75\00:27:36.12
GOD SAYS, 'LOOK,
YOU'VE BEEN - YOU'RE MADE IN
00:27:36.15\00:27:38.29
GOD'S IMAGE, YOU BELONG
TO GOD, YOU ARE TO PRESENT,
00:27:38.32\00:27:42.46
NOT JUST YOUR SPIRIT,
BUT PRESENT YOUR BODY - YOU
00:27:42.49\00:27:45.73
KNOW, WE WORSHIP GOD,
NOT JUST WITH OUR MINDS, WE
00:27:45.76\00:27:48.26
WORSHIP GOD WITH OUR
LIVES AND WHETHER YOU EAT OR
00:27:48.30\00:27:51.93
DRINK, WHATEVER YOU DO,
DO ALL TO THE GLORY OF GOD.
