A Book For Seventh-Day Adventists

Important Introduction

Warm greetings to you my dear reader.  It is my sincere prayer that the information in this book will be of great benefit to you and to yours, and ultimately to the great cause of God.

There is no question that a great work is being done in the field of medicine. There is also no question that much suffering is being alleviated, and that many lives are being saved as a result of the sincere efforts of well-meaning physicians and nurses. One shudders to even imagine a world without hospitals, without medical technology, and without trauma units, etcetera, . . .

While it is true that drugs are often over-prescribed, we simply have to admit that there are times when drugs are absolutely necessary. While it is true that there is often an element of racketeering in certain fields of medicine, we also need to recognize that there are a great many wonderful, honest, self-sacrificing individuals involved in this industry. While it is true that much of medicine focuses heavily on the cure of disease, and only lightly on disease prevention, it is encouraging to note that there is a worldwide swing towards a more holistic and preventive approach.

Nevertheless, as much as I am persuaded to sound the praises of orthodox medicine, my private studies of the inspired counsel, my intimate involvement in the health food industry for over 25 years, and my personal experience with thousands of individuals, have all led me to the conclusion that a great and very tragic mistake has been made – a mistake that is costing humanity dearly. The first few chapters of this book deal with this mistake. The latter chapters deal with God’s infinitely better way of practicing the healing arts.

May God will bless your reading of this book, and may He convict you to share this vital, life-saving message with others.
