LEMON JUICE REMEDIES FROM THE SPIRIT OR PROPHECY
DROPS SQUIRTED IN THE MOUTH REVIVES SOMEONE WHO PASSED OUT:
“The third day when the aromatic odor of the cigars came to me I became stomach-sick. The most intense pain pierced my eyeballs and back of the eyeballs in my head. It seemed that the top of my head was crashing like broken glass. My distress became very great. I thought I was going into a fit. Large drops of perspiration stood upon my face and my entire body broke out in profuse perspiration.
Then came a confused noise in my head and I became blind and fainted entirely away. In half an hour I revived by LEMON JUICE BEING PRESSED IN MY MOUTH I knew as soon as I revived that it was the smoking of cigars which had thus affected me. All in the cars were alarmed and smoking was banished from the car. I have not fully recovered from the effects of this illness.” {11MR 122.1}
LEMON JUICE FOR RHEUMATISM, THE HEAD AND MALARIA:
“I use lemon juice freely. It is the best thing you could use for rheumatism, for your head, and for malaria.” --Letter 119, 1896, p. 3. (To “Children,” July 31, 1896.) Released 1958. {2MR 48.1}
LEMON JUICE FOR HOT WEATHER:
“We have pressed out the juice from the lemons also, in order that we may furnish palatable drink for hot weather...” {6MR 135.2}
“Monday, March 3, 1873--We have had a beautiful day. We have had no hindrance on account of snow. We passed through many snow sheds. I conversed with a young man who is dying with consumption. He is an infidel I cannot reach. He says when he dies it is the last of him. He has led a dissolute life and dies as the beast dieth. It made the Christian life look so bright in contrast with the gloomy prospects of this poor sinner who could not comfort himself with any bright picture when he should live again. His brightest hope is in no existence beyond the grave. I gave him lemons and tried to make him as comfortable as possible, but sad, sad is the thought of this man's future. A just God he must meet.” {11MR 120.4}
