In last week’s Health Tip #743 we began a series sharing how Hallelujah Acres has been first in so many areas. In this Health Tip we want to continue that journey…

Hallelujah Acres Has Its Beginning

On February 12^th 1992, Hallelujah Acres had its beginning when Rhonda and I opened an 11-foot-wide storefront on Main Street in Rogersville, Tennessee. In that tiny restaurant and health food store, we began serving vegan foods and proclaiming a health message to the Christian community.

The message we proclaimed to the Christian community (and to anyone else who would listen) was: “You Don’t Have to be Sick”, and if you are already sick, “How to Eliminate Sickness” through a simple diet and lifestyle change called “The Hallelujah Diet” — based on God’s original diet for mankind in Genesis 1:29.

Slowly, people began applying this Hallelujah health message and testimonies of healing began surfacing in churches across the land and across the land and even in other countries.

By 1994, some of those who had seen their physical and psychological problems disappear as a result of making this diet and lifestyle change began asking if we would teach them how to share the Hallelujah health message with fellow Christians.

Health Minister Training Begins

In August 1994, in response to these requests, Hallelujah Acres held its first Health Minister Training. That first training was conducted in a building still under construction, on a mountaintop in east Tennessee. The floor was still plywood, windows were not yet installed, and attendees sat on 2-by-10 wooden planks resting on concrete blocks.

That first Health Minister Training established Hallelujah Acres as the first Christian ministry to train others on how to spread its message of health and healing, based on Genesis 1:29.

There were 25 Christians attending that extremely humble first Health Minister training. Since then, the number of people who have completed Health Minister Training has grown to over 10,000, with trained Health Ministers now located in every state in the United States and in at least 48 other countries.

Today, when a person in a church requests prayers for a recent diagnosis of cancer or other serious physical problem, it is not unusual for people to encourage that person to check out www.hacres.com and learn more about an alternative to the traditional, immune-destroying modalities of modern medicine.

Even though we have over 10,000 trained Health Ministers, we feel that our Health Ministry is still in its infancy! We continue to receive requests from across America and around the world to come to their city or country to train them as Health Ministers.

We are currently looking into the possibility of putting Health Minister training online so that those, especially in other countries, can obtain training. Last year we had 30 Nigerians registered to come to Hallelujah Acres in Shelby, North Carolina for Health Minister Training — but only two were able to obtain visas.

Friends, here at Hallelujah Acres we are dreaming BIG dreams, just as we have been dreaming big dreams for the past 20 years. We believe that with God, all things (even BIG dreams) are possible.

Our goal is that someday, in some way, every church in the world will have a trained Hallelujah Acres Health Minister to minister to the sick in their individual churches and communities. This is why we are so thrilled when pastors attend Health Minister training (over 800 pastors have been through training thus far) or have sent someone from their church to be trained.

Currently, in most churches across America and around the world, all the pastor can offer those with serious physical problems is prayer and then encourage them to go to a doctor.

But now imagine if a trained Health Minister was in the church. The pastor would be able to refer the sick to a trained Health Minister who can share with them how to recover from their physical problems through a biblically-based, simple, diet and lifestyle change. They would be able to rebuild their immune system so their body’s self-healing abilities could be restored.

I personally encourage you to consider Health Minister Training! Click here for more information and watch for news concerning online Health Minister Training!

First To Publish Books About Genesis 1:29 Diet

Why Christians Get Sick my first book, written in 1988 (four years before Hallelujah Acres had its beginning) was first published in 1989. It was the first book directed to the Christian community, warning of the dangers of consuming the Standard American Diet (SAD), and encouraging them to adopt God’s Genesis 1:29 diet.

This book was originally self-published, but later picked up by Destiny Image. To this day, “Why Christians Get Sick” results in more positive feedback all of my other books combined. Over a million copies of this book are now in print, and it is now available in several languages.

“God’s Way To Ultimate Health”

My second book, God’s Way To Ultimate Health, was first published in 1995. It is a large book that promotes God’s Genesis 1:29 diet and contains over 300 testimonies from folks who have had their health restored after changing their eating habits to line up with The Hallelujah Diet.

The Hallelujah Diet

My latest book, The Hallelujah Diet, was first published in 2006. Whether you’ve been on the diet for a while, or you’re just starting out, this book will guide, encourage, and inform you on your journey to optimal health.

New book coming! – I am currently working on a new book due out later in 2012… watch for details!

First Recipe Books Promoting Genesis 1:29 Diet

When Rhonda adopted a modified Genesis 1:29 diet (what would become The Hallelujah Diet) in 1990 due to her debilitating arthritis, she was completely healed within a year. At the time, there were no recipe books available that matched this diet. So, she set out to write one.

Rhonda, like me, had never written a book before, no less a recipe book. It took her two years to write Recipes For Life…From God’s Garden and it turned out to be a tremendous success! The book has 358 pages containing over 400 recipes that fit The Hallelujah Diet.

Over 250,000 copies of this spiral bound book are now in print. In fact, in 2011 it was the best selling book of all the books Hallelujah Acres sells!

Rhonda has since written two more books: “Hallelujah Holiday Recipes”, and “Salad Dressings For Life from God’s Garden”.

Rhonda is currently working on her forth recipe book due from the publisher later this year. Be watching for its release!

First Online Christian Health Ministry

While there have been, for many years, Christian ministries with websites that promote the spiritual aspects of life, until Hallelujah Acres came along in 1997, there was not another Christian ministry promoting healthy living. To this day, Hallelujah Acres remains the worldwide leader in this category.

First Christian Ministry To Publish Online Health Tips

In 1997, along with the introduction of our Hallelujah Acres website, we began publishing a weekly, email-based Health Tip, geared to the Christian community, encouraging them to God’s original Genesis 1:29 Diet.

The number of subscribers to this Health Tip has grown from just a few in the early days to nearly 100,000 subscribers today. Every week there is a feature article, usually an answered question, a recipe from Rhonda, testimonies, and an update on what is happening at Hallelujah Acres.

Over 700 previous Health Tips are available by clicking the “wall clock” image on the right hand side of the Health Tip home page.

Next week… the good Lord willing and if the creeks don’t rise too high, we will continue sharing other “firsts” Hallelujah Acres has been responsible for. Amazingly, the list is quite long and has had a tremendous influence on the health information being shared today by others around the world. Trust you will join us.

This past Saturday, Hallelujah Acres rented out the ballroom of the Embassy Suites in Jacksonville, Florida for a “God’s Way to Ultimate Health” seminar and boy was it an exciting seminar.

Rhonda and I arrived about 9:00 a.m. and found Beverley and Graeme Coad already there preparing for the seminar and people had already begun to arrive.

Not long after Rhonda and I arrived a young lady arrived, and she shared how she had attended my Altamonte Springs/Orlando seminar in a wheelchair and here she was walking!

She shared that when she attended the Altamonte Springs seminar she was unable to walk because of fibromyalgia. Following the seminar, she had adopted The Hallelujah Diet and was able to walk just one month later.

She brought many family members and friends with her to the seminar who had seen her miraculous turnaround.

Then there was a grandmother who as she arrived shared with me that she had a five-year-old grandson who had been diagnosed with autism and who had not spoken a single word in those five years… until they began feeding him foods on The Hallelujah Diet.

He has now spoken his first words!

At 10:00, Graeme opened the seminar by sharing that 17 years ago he was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer. But he adopted The Hallelujah Diet at that time and today is alive, well, and cancer-free!

Well all of these wonderful testimonies sure had me excited as we began the seminar!

As always, we began the seminar by asking those in attendance and that are on The Hallelujah Diet to share any improvements in health they have experienced.

There were more than a dozen more testimonies shared during this time.

One lady shared how she had debilitating rheumatoid arthritis with deformity in her hands. Not only had her arthritis disappeared as a result of making the diet change, but even the nodules on her hands had disappeared!

Then there were testimonies of cancers gone, diabetes gone, normalized blood and cholesterol levels, wonderful weight losses, and so much more.

To me, these testimonies are the most exciting part of the seminar and provide curious inspiration to those who are not on The Hallelujah Diet.

The 200 chairs set up in the ballroom were full and after the seminar ended at about 12:15, almost every person in the room remained for the question and answer session that followed.

This seminar was the third seminar conducted in Florida this year, and we may be coming to St. Augustine soon!

If you live in the St Augustine area and know of a venue where we could host a seminar, please call our customer care center at 800.915.9355.

My next “God’s Way to Ultimate Health” will be back at Hallelujah Acres International Headquarters in Shelby, North Carolina on March 3^rd.

We consistently have well over 250 folks come to these first-Saturday-of-the-month seminars in Shelby from well over a dozen different states and often a foreign country.

If you haven’t already attended one of these seminars, why don’t you mark your calendar and make plans to attend and bring someone with you. And if you have already attended a seminar, you might like to encourage someone to attend with you who needs to hear how they can restore their health through a simple diet and lifestyle change.

Don’t think that diet soda is harming you? Think again!

A news story on NewsMaxHealth.com has revealed that just one can of diet soda per day can increase a person’s risk of heart disease by 43% — just one can per day!

I can’t say that I am surprised, however. Ever since Hallelujah Acres had its beginning more than 20 years ago, we have been warning of the dangers associated with the consumption of both sugar sweetened sodas and artificially sweetened diet sodas.

Interestingly, not one food item we have stood against or promoted for the past 20 years has as yet been proven incorrect either experimentally or scientifically and never will be.

Why?

Because The Hallelujah Diet is based on God’s Genesis 1:29 diet and God’s ways will always prove to be true and man’s ways false.

What’s better than butter? A butter that actually promotes a healthy heart!

I want to send a great BIG “THANK YOU” to all who sent me birthday greetings either by e-mail, snail-mail, phone, or personal greeting. Here are just a few of them:

“Happy Birthday Dr. Malkmus! You are such a blessing to my husband and me and what an inspiration you have been us. You are my hero!

I am so thankful that 10 years ago, after being diagnosed with a heart disease called cardio myopathy, and the doctors had given me no hope beyond a heart transplant, that I learned about and adopted The Hallelujah Diet.

I believe it was The Hallelujah Diet that saved my life.

As a result of making the diet change my heart is fine, I am now 75 years old, am very active and a trained Hallelujah Acres Health Minister serving Jesus by helping others deal with physical problems by adopt The Hallelujah Diet.

I have a Hallelujah Acres Vegan Supper in my home here in Greenville, South Carolina once a month. I am so excited about what The Hallelujah Diet has done in my life in the past and looking forward to the next however many years the Lord gives me to see what the diet will do in the future.

Thank you again for The Hallelujah Diet because it not only saved my life but my husband’s life as well after a cancer diagnosis five years ago.

Without medical attention he no longer has melanoma cancer. We love and pray for you.”
Ruth D.

“Happy Birthday from Hawaii! Your life is such an inspiration to me and the world. I am not too far behind you in age and my record is disease free since 1984 after adopting a diet similar to The Hallelujah Diet.

I became a Health Minister in 2007 and personally met you and saw your energy! Because the Lord has blessed me with this Health Message, I am teaching and sharing this message also. I am a senior citizen who still looks like and acts like a young woman. People guess me at many years younger than my age and when they ask, I tell them that the reason for my youthful appearance and activity is due to my healthy lifestyle and then tell them that “It’s not too late for them.”

I live on the Big Island here in Hawaii, and like you am extremely active. Would love for you to come for a visit and have opportunity to see you again. I love your health tips!”
Foreverhealthy1, Hawaii

“Dear George, we wish you a wonderful birthday. You meant a lot to the lives of two quasi hippies when you started Hallelujah Acres in Rogersville, Tennessee back in 1992 and certainly helped us to a healthier and sweeter life as you have so many others on this tiny planet. We moved to sunny New Mexico nine years ago and our souls are so happy here. Love to Rhonda.”
Bruce and Yvonne G., New Mexico

“Dear Rev. Malkmus, Happy Birthday! I have two of your books – God’s Way to Ultimate Health and Rhonda’s Recipes for Life. I purchased them from a naturopath doctor many years ago. Her name was Betty and a Hallelujah Acres Health Minister. Betty passed away in 2004 due to auto accident injuries. I am so thankful to God, Betty, and you all.

Thanks to The Hallelujah Diet I not only got off all my daily allergy medications and weekly injections, but as of 1997 I no longer have mitral valve prolapse. The doctor says this is a miracle because this is a birth defect and that no one can heal from it.

This letter is long overdue, so this is a belated ‘Thank You!’ I hope to soon be trained and certified as a Hallelujah Acres Health Minister. All God’s best to you and yours.”
Sharin L., Lexington, Kentucky

“P.S. Your BarleyMax is a wonderful product. I could tell the difference in the way I felt the very first day using it.”

“Happy 78^th birthday Rev. Malkmus. You are a real inspiration to me. I look forward to your weekly Health Tips so much – they are always so interesting. I hope I will be as vibrant and healthy when I’m your age. Your weekly Health Tips keep me on track.”
Vicenza F.

“Rev. Malkmus, since you are holding seminars in Tampa and Jacksonville, Florida in February, would you please consider holding the first ‘God’s Way to Ultimate Health’ seminar in The Villages? We are on the route between Tampa and Jacksonville, just 20 minutes south of Ocala off I75. We have 89,000 people here in the Villages now and GROWING by the day. Many of us here in the village are ACTIVE SENIORS. Would you please call or email me ASAP to arrange a seminar here?
Sandra S., The Villages, Florida

Rev Malkmus responds: Hi Sandra, We would be most happy to consider conducting a seminar in the Villages. If you will provide a venue that will accommodate a minimum of 200 people we will work out a time for a presentation.

In this Health Tip we begin a series sharing how Hallelujah Acres has been FIRST in so many areas – first to promote God’s Genesis 1:29 diet; first Christian ministry to dedicate itself to the health of the Christian community;  first to publish a Christian magazine emphasizing healthy living, and so much more.

Let’s begin our journey into Hallelujah Acres “firsts!”

Hallelujah Acres First To Promote Genesis 1:29 Diet

On February 12, 1992 Hallelujah Acres had its beginning in an 11-foot-wide storefront on Main Street in Rogersville, Tennessee.  On this same date we began encouraging the Christian community (as well as anyone else who would listen) to return to nourishing their bodies with the garden foods God told Adam to consume in Genesis 1:29.

Here is what God told Adam he should eat in order to properly nourish and sustain the life of the physical body God had just created for him:

“AND GOD SAID, Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” (Genesis 1:29)

There are two ways to interpret this verse: (1) As written in the King James Version this verse concludes with the words: “to you it shall be for MEAT” or “in place of meat”. (2) But a little research will quickly reveal that a more accurate translation doesn’t even contain the word “meat.” Proper translation would read: “to you it shall be for FOOD.”

In this verse God is telling Adam — and through Adam all mankind — that man was to consume a diet consisting exclusively of fruits and vegetables, seeds and nuts. It only makes sense since these are the very foods found in the garden God had created before creating Adam and placing him into it.

There was not even a hint in this verse that man was to consume the flesh or drink the milk of an animal.

Hallelujah Acres became the very first Christian ministry in the history of the church (at least that we are aware of) encouraging the Christian community to stop consuming the “world’s diet” and to return to consuming God’s original, 100%, plant-based diet as outlined in Genesis 1:29.

Since its very beginning 20 years ago, Hallelujah Acres has discouraged the consuming of almost all the foods found in the Standard American Diet (SAD). We discouraged the consumption of all animal source foods, all refined sugars and refined grains, stating that these substances were the “cause” of most physical problems.

20 Years Ago Few Christians Were Concerned About Health

Our attempt was not received very well. In fact, it was received about as well by the Christian community as the Israelites received God’s attempt to change their diets back in the book of Exodus. He rescued them from the meat based diet they had learned to consume during their time in Egypt. Instead, in the wilderness gave them manna, a plant-based food (“like coriander seed” See Exodus 16:31).

“And  the children of Israel said unto them; Would to God we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into the wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.” (Exodus 16:3)

When we began proclaiming God’s Genesis 1:29 diet, the Christian community was so steeped in its animal-based foods that barbecued ribs, Southern fried chicken, or a roasted pig, along with all manner of other flesh foods had become the main attraction at church fellowships.

These fellowship suppers also included plenty of sugar-laden desserts made not only with refined sugar but also refined flour, both of which cause blood sugar to spike and lead to all manner of physical problems.

You can imagine the reaction when I came along, telling them that their fellowship suppers were the primary cause of most of the physical problems for which they prayed for healing on prayer meeting night!

Just who was this Baptist preacher who was trying to get Christians to change their diets? Was he a university-trained nutritionist or a medical doctor? No! He was just a preacher who had developed colon cancer and refused all medical treatments for his cancer, and in less than a year without any medical modalities was cancer-free.

What had this preacher done in place of medical modalities to heal his cancer? He simply stopped consuming animal products, refined sugars and grains he had been consuming the previous 42-years of his life. Instead, he adopted God’s Genesis 1:29 diet along with lots of freshly extracted vegetable juices.

My experience became the foundation of Hallelujah Acres’ message that there was indeed a better way of dealing with physical problems than the medical/drug route these Christians had previously pursued.

First To Proclaim “You Don’t Have To Be Sick”

When Hallelujah Acres came on the scene in 1992, the Christian community was just as sick as the non-Christian community, experiencing the same physical problems to the same percentages regardless of how many prayers were prayed for God to take away these physical problems.

Sadly, the Christian community had also grown just as dependent upon drug (both over-the-counter and doctor-prescribed) as the non-Christian community. They consumed ever more drugs while feeling worse and worse, experiencing more and more sickness, spending ever more money on modern medicine. Meanwhile, they never fully recovered from the physical or psychological problems they were doctoring and taking drugs for.

When I began holding seminars titled “How to Eliminate Sickness,” few people attended. Gradually, more people began attending these seminars, applying what was being taught, and began sending in testimonies of all manner of physical and psychological problems disappearing – from high blood pressure, to diabetes, to cancer, to you name it!

These testimonies confirmed that when a person (Christian or non-Christian) ceased the consumption of animal source foods, refined sugar and grains, and began consuming God’s Genesis 1:29 diet along with lots of vegetable juices, they not only recovered from nearly all their physical and psychological problems, but they didn’t get sick anymore.

First To Publish Christian Health Magazine

In 1993, Hallelujah Acres began publishing a magazine titled “Back to the Garden.” It was the first Christian publication to encourage a return to the 100% garden diet God had given to Adam in Genesis 1:29.

The first issue was a very humble beginning: 3,000 copies were printed, containing 12 pages, printed in dark green ink on a recycled paper. The feature article was titled “God’s Original Diet” Here is part of that article:

“When God created man, He placed him in a garden and told him his diet was to consist of raw fruits and vegetables. On this diet, man lived an average of 912 years without sickness! Following the flood, meat and cooked food were added to man’s diet. As a result, sickness entered the human race and man’s life span declined rapidly from an average of 912 years to 100 years by the time you get to the end of Genesis!”

That first issue of “Back to the Garden also contained numerous testimonies. Following is just one of the testimonies that appeared in that first issue:

“I am a diabetic. I started on the program you teach at Hallelujah Acres on March 5, 1993. At that time my blood sugar was running around 425 and I was taking two injections of 20 units of insulin daily. In eight weeks I have been able to eliminate one shot and reduce the other to 10 units a day. My blood sugar has dropped from around 425 eight weeks ago to 112 this morning. I have also lost 21 pounds in eight weeks and have lots of energy. My high blood pressure is also lower. My neighbors say they can see a big change for the better. I thank the Lord for this program.”
Evelyn A.

Testimonies of healing began streaming in almost immediately after we started proclaiming God’s Genesis 1:29 health message on February 12, 1992. They have continued to this day, 20 years later!

We have received literally tens-of-thousands of testimonies reporting drastic improvement or complete reversal of symptoms from more than 170 physical problems — including terminal cancers! Well over 1,000 of these can be found on our website.

On page 12 of that first issue of our “Back to the Garden” magazine was an article titled: “The Message of Hallelujah Acres is essentially – Superior Health Will Exist if your Living Practices are in keeping with God’s Natural Laws.” Following this heading were eight natural laws (re-published here).

Finally, on page 12 of that first issue, just below the “Eight Natural Laws” article, there was a quote I want to share:

“Don’t you believe the moth-eaten fallacy that man, as he gets older, must face decrepitude, decay, senility and death! Man does not die – he commits slow suicide with his unnatural habits of living. Your body is the most glorious accurate instrument of this universe. Given the correct fuel, pure air, exercise and keeping it internally clean; your body will last indefinitely and function perfectly.”
Paul Bragg

Next Week, the good Lord willing and if the creeks don’t rise too high, we will continue sharing other “firsts” Hallelujah Acres has been responsible for. Amazingly, the list is quite long and has had a tremendous influence in the plethora of health information that is currently being shared today not only by Hallelujah Acres but by many other organizations dedicated to healthy living. Trust you will join us.

This past Friday, February 10^th I had the opportunity to appear on Arthelene Rippy’s Homekeeper TV program in Largo, Florida.

I first appeared on her show in 1999 and have appeared on her show most every year since. We appreciate Arthelene so much for her support and prayers these many years!

Appearing on the show with me were Health Ministers Dave and Sherry Orcutt. Dave and Sherry own and operate our Hallelujah Acres Lifestyle Center in Plant City, Florida.

On the telecast, Dave shared how 11 years ago he was unable to walk due to debilitating multiple sclerosis and how in less than a year on The Hallelujah Diet he totally recovered.

Dave and Sherry also assisted me, along with my wife Rhonda, with Saturday’s seminar in the Embassy Suites Ballroom in Brandon, Florida. The ballroom was set up with 250 chairs and we not only filled all the chairs but also had a few standing around the wall.

The testimonies shared by those gathered are always the highlight of these seminars! Folks share all the improvements they have experienced in their health since they adopted The Hallelujah Diet. They almost always include diabetes gone, arthritis gone, lowered blood pressure and cholesterol, cancers gone and incredible weight losses, some of over 100 pounds — and Saturday was no exception.

It was a great seminar and we are already looking forward to next Saturday’s seminar (Feb. 18) in the ballroom of the Embassy Suites, Jacksonville, Florida; the seminar begins at 10:00 a.m. Come early in order to be sure of a good seat as seating is limited.

Rhonda will also be there to greet the folks and we will be assisted by Health Ministers Graeme and Beverley Coad. Graeme was Chaplain for the 700 Club for 12 years before being diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer at age 59.

Graeme chose The Hallelujah Diet rather than conventional cancer therapies for that cancer and is still alive and well on planet earth 16 years later.

His testimony of healing will inspire you as will Rhonda’s healing from debilitating arthritis 20 years ago, and my healing from colon cancer 36 years ago — and we don’t get sick anymore!

If you live in the Jacksonville area please plan to attend and bring someone with you.

Also, if you cannot attend but know someone who lives in the Jacksonville area, let them know of the opportunity.

Superior health will exist if our living practices are in keeping with God’s natural laws.

Good health is a necessary condition for the enjoyment of life and it is the Lord’s will that we enjoy life. Jesus said: “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10)

With superior health we are fit vessels for God’s Holy Spirit and we are better able to serve God and proclaim the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

1. Hallelujah Acres believes and teaches that God created man! (Genesis 1:26-27; 2:7)
2. Hallelujah Acres believes that God created man with a perfect body, with a body capable of living without sickness. (Genesis 1:31)
3. Hallelujah Acres believes health is natural and normal and will be our portion if we will but observe God’s natural laws in our daily walk through life. (Galatians 6:7)
4. Hallelujah Acres believes that God does not want us to be sick! The Bible tells us that God wishes “above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” (3 John 2)
5. Hallelujah Acres believes that sickness comes ONLY when we violate the natural laws God gave us to live by! Disease is abnormal, unnatural and unnecessary! (Galatians 6:7)
6. Hallelujah Acres believes that using treatments such as drugs, radiation, and the surgical removal of body parts in an effort to bring about healing is unnatural to the body and interferes with healthful body functions and the body’s efforts to heal itself! (Mark 5:25-26)
7. Hallelujah Acres rejects the idea that sickness and disease are inevitable in our lives. Rather, we contend that sickness and disease will not occur unless there is sufficient cause! Proverbs 26:2 says: “. . . the curse causeless shall not come.”
8. Hallelujah Acres believes that no curse of sickness or ill health comes without a cause . . . and further, that if we will but eliminate the CAUSE, the curse (the sickness) will usually go away and stay away.

“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God and that the spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.”
(2 Corinthians 3:16-18)

“I beseech you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
(Romans 12:1-2)
