Staying Healthy Biblically | Part 1 | The Old Path | MCGI

in MCGI Cares Hive3 years ago

The concept of good health has always been a topic of interest and importance to humanity. The idea of staying healthy and strong throughout one's life has been the pursuit of many people, and it's something that has been written about and studied for centuries. In fact, the Bible is a book of wisdom that provides valuable insights and teachings on the importance of maintaining good health.

In 3rd John 1:3, the disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ stated, "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth." This verse emphasizes the importance of physical health as part of overall well-being. The soul is the essence of a person, and a healthy soul leads to a healthy being. Therefore, maintaining good physical health is essential to achieve a healthy soul and overall well-being.

In addition, the verse advice that Christians should be praying for each other's health and well-being. This is because being healthy is not just an individual pursuit but also a communal one. Christians are encouraged to support each other in their pursuit of good health, as this benefits the entire community.

Furthermore, the Bible provides examples of individuals who lived long and healthy lives. For instance, Deuteronomy 34:7 describes how Moses lived to be 120 years old, and his "eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated." This verse demonstrates that it is possible to remain healthy and strong even in old age.

Moreover, the Bible teaches that good health is closely linked to following the teachings of Jesus Christ. By accepting the gospel's principles, Christians can avoid harmful vices that can negatively impact their health, such as alcohol or tobacco use. The teachings of Jesus Christ encourage healthy habits and behaviors that can lead to a long and healthy life.

The Bible contains valuable teachings on the importance of maintaining good health. It emphasizes the importance of physical health as part of overall well-being, encourages communal support for one another's health, and provides examples of individuals who lived long and healthy lives. Christians are encouraged to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ to achieve good health and well-being, which can positively impact their lives and the lives of those around them.

Yes indeed, and we can add that the lifestyle of Moses was life full of fasting which we can copy in our lifestyle too.
