The narrative of Creation reports the origin of human beings, and marriage as the foundation of society.
Everyone can find a special place in the church, where they can be loved, even if they do not have a family.
1. What kind of behavior should Christians demonstrate? (Romans 12:1, 2)
Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service. Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
2. In addition to the church, what else is called “temple of the Holy Spirit”? (1 Corinthians 6:19)
Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own,
God’s law that includes the laws of health, is not arbitrary, but was given by our Creator in order to enable us to enjoy a better life.
3. What was man’s original diet? (Genesis 1:29)
God said, “Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.”
God permitted meat as food only after the flood (Genesis 9:3-5), but He gave some restrictions (Leviticus 11:4-10).
Regular exercise is the simple formula to maintain mental and physical health (Genesis 2:15).
Light is essential for life (Genesis 1:3) as the water and fresh air are necessary for the well functioning of the organism.
Temperance means habitual moderation and control in the indulgences of the appetites and passions; in other words, self-control. A life free of drugs preserves health. Even many kind of popular beverages that contain caffeine and alcohol cause harmful effects to our health. Tobacco is another poison of slow effect; it brings prejudice to physical, mental and spiritual health.
4. What invitation does Jesus give us? (Mark 6:31)
He said to them, “You come apart into a deserted place, and rest awhile.” For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
Rest is very important for the health of our body and mind. God emphasized the necessity of rest giving us the weekly Sabbath (Exodus 20:10).
5. How should the followers of Jesus live? (1 John 2:6)
He who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.
Would you like to live more like Jesus?
