Medical Missionary Work and What is NOT Part of Our Health Message

“Those who go forth to engage in the work of the ministry must be intelligent upon the subject of health reform...” (MM 238.3)

“...The Lord has marked out a way in which His people are to carry forward a work of physical healing...”

{MM 14.3}  

“There are many ways of practicing the healing art, but there is only one way that Heaven approves...” (5T 443.1)

“...strange things have been done in the medical missionary work...”  {CH 370.3}  

“Many have misinterpreted health reform, and have received perverted ideas of what constitutes right living...” {CD 200.3} 

OUR Words are to be “...in harmony with the teachings of Christ...” (PC 72.5)

(This includes the Testimony of Jesus AKA the Spirit of Prophecy) (See Rev. 12:17 and 19:10) 

AND LET'S REMEMBER THIS VERY IMPORTANT PRINCIPLE: We are all to speak the same things!!!

“...He will not use individuals of different faith, opinions, and views, to scatter and divide. Heaven and holy angels are working to unite, to bring into the unity of the faith, into the one body. Satan opposes this, and is determined to scatter, and divide, and bring in different sentiments...Jesus designed that the faith of His people should be one. If one goes forth preaching one thing, and another differing with him preaches something else, how can those who believe through their word be one? There will be difference of sentiments.”  {1T 326.2}  

Let's remember -- “to the law and to the testimony...”  (Isaiah8:20)

NOW, HAVING SHARED THE ABOVE QUOTES, I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS THE FOLLOWING:

I appreciate all the feedback and input shared on this group. However, because we have been counseled that we are all to speak the same things AND that many things have been brought into our work that was not given to us, I am asking if the recommendations for any type of healing process that is shared on here be supported from the SOP. 

The following, because of all that we have covered so far and read strictly from the SOP, is not supported from the SOP as proper methods of healing.  Therefore, it would be best if those things are not recommended on this group: Thank you for understanding and Lord bless!!! And bless everyone's efforts for making an effort in helping anyone. 

REMEMBER: WE HAVE MANY THINGS TO LEARN & UNLEARN

THE FOLLOWING IS NOT A PART OF OUR HEALTH MESSAGE:

The eating of Raw Oats or any Raw Grain where the grain used for porridge has not been cooked (should be baked on low in the oven) for several hours.

The eating of Raw Coarse Vegetables

The juicing of Raw Coarse Vegetables (unless being used a couple times for a very temporary situation in trying to correct eye sight for a Driver’s Test, etc...OR like beet juice for someone with a seriously high blood pressure reading.

Colonics

Enemas used on a regular basis unless for emergency purposes once or twice as counseled in the SOP.

Supplements that are not 100% food...Barley Greens is 100% foods; Multivitamins are not.

 There's no way you can have oranges, raspberries, nettle, etc. in one tiny pill. Those have extractions which medical science has shown is horrible for the body.

Probiotics (much study and research has been done on this and this type of healing was not given to SDA's and came years later after the health message was given to us. Someone on this group did extensive research on this subject and found that probiotics have harmful ingredients.

The eating of fermented foods.

The eating of more than 3 meals a day like recommended for diabetics.

Any snacking between meals.

Anything where the mixing of fruit & vegetables is used (juicing, salads, etc.) (Salads are okay, just be sure not to put fruit in with the lettuce or make a fruit dressing for the salad)

Any Recipe using oil, additives, preservatives, food coloring, white sugar, vinegar, etc.

The recommendation of high fat diet.

Diets that require eating the same thing day after day without variation.

The recommendation of steaming vegetables that leaves the vegetable still crisp and not completely tender as we have been counseled.

Any diet that has porridge, oatmeal, etc. on a regular basis.

Any diet that has smoothies (we are counseled to eat our food whole and not take in a liquid state unless it's like grape, lemon, or orange juice to have as a refreshing beverage)...These juices do not have the flesh of the fruit grounded up into a pulp...FRUIT SHOULD BE EATEN WHOLE.

Green Tea for a regular cleansing program (If used for a 1 x emergency situation as Sister White used tea and coffee for sea sickness, then it would be okay).

Spices such as Allspice, Black Pepper, Cayenne Pepper, Chili Pepper, Chili Powder, Cinnamon, Cloves, Cream Of Tartar, Habanero Pepper, Hot Peppers (all kinds), Jalapeno Pepper, Mace, Nutmeg, White Pepper, etc. (ginger and turmeric are roots). If cinnamon and nutmeg are being used for an emergency situation one or two times and not part of a regular cleansing program, then this is okay.

The teaching of 80% raw and 20% cooked...We have been counseled to eat 3-4 dishes maximum per meal.  If we ate only 3 dishes, that would be 33.3% for each dish, so 2 dishes would = 66.6%, not 80%. 4 dishes would = 50-75% on a plate if you ate 2-3 dishes raw. The 80% raw comes from Halleluiah Acres. Although they are doing a great job, they do not have the 100% pure health message that was given to us.  We are counseled that if God has any new light to give to us, we don't need to go to the different groups of Advent believers (referring to Sunday keepers who are waiting for the 2nd Coming of Christ). OUR HEALTH MESSAGES IS PURE AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY ERROR IN IT.

Fasting for unnecessary periods of time. We have been counseled how often and for how long fasting should and should not take place.  The 40 day fast is said to be an insult to Jesus and is not necessary.  A 21 day Raw Fast is not according to our health message, etc.

LET'S STICK WITH WHAT WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN:

• All the Laws of Health INCLUDING DRESS
• Abstemious Regulated Diet
• Water Treatments
• Herbs
• Oils
• Massage
• Fasting at Times
• And Most Importantly, PRAYER

AND LET'S NOT FORGET THE FOLLOWING QUOTE ON HOW WE CAN HAVE A 90% RECOVERY RATE (God could do 100%, but He will allow many to find Jesus in their sickness and die saved.)

“Nature will want some assistance to bring things to their proper condition, which may be found in THE SIMPLEST REMEDIES, especially in the use of nature's own furnished remedies--pure air, and with a precious knowledge of how to breathe; pure water, with a knowledge how to apply it; plenty of sunlight in every room in the house if possible, and with an intelligent knowledge of what advantages are to be gained by its use. 

“All these are powerful in their efficiency, and the patient who has obtained a knowledge of how to eat and dress healthfully may live for comfort, for peace, for health, and will not be prevailed upon to put to his lips drugs, which, in the place of helping nature, paralyzes her powers. If the sick and suffering will do only as well as they know in regard to living out the principles of health reform (referring to all the things marked in red above) perseveringly, then they will in nine cases out of ten recover from their ailments.” {MM 223.4}
