--- Quote ---Tip #9  Be warned. Yoga is an adjunct of pagan Indian religion; the religious aspects are satanic.  If you practice Yoga, are you sure you can keep yourself from the poisonous source of this religion/philosophy?  Are you sure?  Can you picture Jesus practicing Yoga?

Nothing wrong with Yoga as long as you are not practicing any religious aspects with it. From what I know, you sit very still in the lotus position and meditate.

Psa 46:10  Be still, and know that I am God:

Psa 1:2  But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

Every one of us practice some form of paganism without knowing it. That does not make us pagans.

As Ray is fond of saying: "If you found out pagans were the first to wear shoes, would you stop wearing shoes?"

Hi Felix,

I too find that God has greatly bless us with everything we have. I think we all could benefit from what others have learned on how to put some of these things to use.
I have not met many people from this forum, but I too feel very close to some here even though we have not met. It is so good to come here and be among friends, actually brothers and sisters.

Hi Dennis, you make a good point. May we all draw closer to God in the things that we do, whatever the orgin.

mercy, peace and love
Kat

I still cannot picture Jesus sitting in the lotus position and chanting Ommmmm.....

It boggles the mind.

I too cannot picture Jesus chanting. But He had no need to.

I suspect the chanting is designed to quite the mind which is very difficult, impossible for most without some sort of meditation.

--- Quote from: John from Kentucky on March 05, 2010, 07:13:43 PM ---These health tips raise a question in me that I have had ever since the November bible conference.  What is it about these crazy health topics, and what do they have to do with Bible Truths?  I agree with and accept God's spiritual truths and teachings on this website and at the bible conferences, but I have real problems with the unbiblical and unscientific health topics that crop up every now and again.

This section of the forum is for whatever you want to talk about. If you're going to use the word "unscientific", you better back up your claim.


--- Quote ---Tip #4  I am speechless.  Unbelievable.  Someone, please tell me this is a joke.  If anyone takes tip #4 seriously, we might be in the Kingdom of God together, but there is no way I could ever take you seriously or be close friends with you.
--- End quote ---

I had to got to the site to find out what tip #4 was... Okay, I personally wouldn't do it, but calling someone stupid in a round-about way like you did is not very... Christ-like.



--- Quote ---Tip #9  Be warned. Yoga is an adjunct of pagan Indian religion; the religious aspects are satanic.  If you practice Yoga, are you sure you can keep yourself from the poisonous source of this religion/philosophy?  Are you sure?  Can you picture Jesus practicing Yoga?
--- End quote ---

Lol... Really? To use your own words. "I'm speechless. Unbelievable." Hindu is "satanic"? It was created by men, being week and fallen men, and it's a false religion, but I wouldn't call it "satanic". I don't personally practice yoga, it's too time consuming. But I've seen results from people that do it, and it works.


--- Quote ---Tip #14  Polyphenols stop cancer.  Oh really!  Are there double-blind scientific studies and experiments that prove this truth?  If so, can you cite the reputable science journals that report this truth?  Are there two or three scriptures that prove polyphenols stop cancer?  So, if I know someone who has cancer, then I can give them polyphenols and it will stop their cancer?  Oh really!  Amazing!

No comment.


--- Quote ---Tip # 19  Omega-3 fatty acids will increase my brainpower?  Can you prove it?  How much will my IQ increase?
--- End quote ---

I have personally used Omega-3 fish oil before. I can say, it does help with memory and concentration.


--- Quote ---I could go on and on.  Sorry Dr. Oz, but you're a nut.  Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore!

The Spirit of God is the Spirit of a sound mind; of the Mind behind all that is.  We disgrace this Spirit when we follow untruth of any kind.  "God is Spirit.  And those who worship Him, must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth."

When God led me to turn my back on organized religion, I promised God to follow Truth in all things.  Can we follow God in spiritual truths and follow lies and deceptions in other parts of our lives?  What is the source of all that we believe?  All comes from God.  Don't we have to follow Truth in everything?

So I ask my question, what is the source, what is the proof, either biblical or scientific, of the various health topics and advice, that I see on our Bible-Truths website?
--- End quote ---

I can't remember the Scripture, but I believe Jesus said not to promise anything to God, because men cannot ever keep their word. Also, how do you know what is truth? You can't know anything is true, Absolutely , you have to trust God.

Thanks Kat for giving us the “straight poop” on health tips.

In I Tim. 5:23 Paul tells Timothy to “No longer drink water exclusively, buy use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.” I don’t see any followup from Timothy asking Paul where his double-blind studies were to prove his health tip.

If you’re not a “poop-peeker” than maybe you should be according to the Mayo Clinic.

A Certain Color of Stools Can Indeed Mean Cancer

Ever had green, red or black poop? What about yellow or white stools? Do you ever even look at your poop? You should! It's unsightly, but you need to know what your bowel movements normally look like in shape as well as color, since certain stool colors are associated with colon cancer. The color of poop can indicate what's going on in your body. Poop can come in a variety of colors.

Any shade of brown stools - This is normal.

Green poop - Normal. Don't panic. It's not cancer. Bowel movements actually starts out as green. There are two chief causes of green poop: green foods, and quick transit time of the stools through the large intestine. Leafy green vegetables, cucumbers, green food coloring and iron supplements can turn poop green. Quick transit time doesn't give bile enough time to break down completely, thus retaining stools' original green color.

Yellow poop - It's not cancer. It's fat in your bowel movement. Fatty stools also float.

Light colored or white stools - It's not cancer. This indicates lack of bile in the bowel movements, possibly caused by a bile duct obstruction. Drugs for diarrhea can also cause a light color.

Black or tarry stools - SEE DOCTOR. This can have serious as well as harmless causes. Black bowel movements can mean bleeding going on in the upper gastrointestinal tract, a bleeding ulcer, gastritis, or esophageal tear from vomiting. On the other hand, iron supplements can blacken bowel movements. So can anti-diarrheal drugs, black licorice and blueberries.

Red or maroon stools - SEE DOCTOR. This could mean several life-threatening medical conditions including colon cancer. Red in poop can point to bleeding in the lower intestinal tract, hemorrhoids, anal fissures, bleeding of the diverticuli, inflammatory bowel disease, and of course, colon cancer. If you see blood in your bowel movements, see a doctor promptly. Bleeding means something is WRONG


However...your bowel movements may appear "red" and not have any blood in them. Bright reddish stools can result from eating foods with red dyes like beverages, gelatin and popsicles. Bright red poop can also be causes  by red licorice, tomato juice, tomato soup and BEETS ! You wouldn't think beets, with their dark purple color, could cause bright red stools. But extracted beet juice is one of the brightest reds you'll ever see. Beets give BMs more of a crimson "ribbon" around them and intertwined with them, versus literally changing their color.

By being visually acquainted with your BMs, you can learn to distinguish between food-color-induced redness, and blood-induced redness.
