David, scripture seems to contradict you; how do you figure? Deuteronomy 28 15(13) But it shall come about, if you do not obey the LORD your God, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes with which I charge you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you: 20(18) The LORD will send upon you curses, confusion, and (19) rebuke, in all you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and until (20) you perish quickly, on account of the evil of your deeds, because you have forsaken Me. 21(21) The LORD will make the pestilence cling to you until He has consumed you from the land where you are entering to possess it. 22(22) The LORD will smite you with consumption and with fever and with inflammation and with fiery heat and with [1] the sword and (23) with blight and with mildew, and they will pursue you until (24) you perish. 27(29) The LORD will smite you with the boils of Egypt and with (30) tumors and with the scab and with the itch, from which you cannot be healed. 28The LORD will smite you with madness and with blindness and with bewilderment of heart; 35(36) The LORD will strike you on the knees and legs with sore boils, from which you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to the crown of your head. 59then the LORD will bring extraordinary plagues on you and your descendants, even severe and lasting plagues, and miserable and chronic sicknesses. 60(63) He will bring back on you all the diseases of Egypt of which you were afraid, and they will cling to you. 61Also every sickness and every plague which, not written in the book of this law, the LORD will bring on you (64) until you are destroyed. 62Then you shall be left few in number, (65) whereas you were as numerous as the stars of heaven, because you did not obey the LORD your God. 63It shall come about that as the LORD (66) delighted over you to prosper you, and multiply you, so the LORD will (67) delight over you to make you perish and destroy you; and you will be (68) torn from the land where you are entering to possess it. Exodus 12 12'For (1) I will go through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and (2) against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments--(3) I am the LORD. 29 Now it came about at (28) midnight that (29) the LORD struck all (30) the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of (31) cattle.

Izzy wrote: David, I've been meaning to ask you this. Every time you get sick do you take that as a sign that the Lord is chastising you? No. It might just be that I haven't been walking in faith. Izzy wrote: If so, do you think that whenever anyone else gets ill that God is chastising them? Not so, so no, I do not. If you want my view on healing, I wrote an article back in the 1980's I think and it is posted on the website at www.InnGlory.org, in the library section under David Miller. It might help you understand where I am coming from. I believe that both physical and spiritual healing is provided in the work of Christ. Izzy wrote: If not, what made you think your illness was a related issue to gluttony? Because I don't expect to get sick anymore than I expect to sin, I seek the Lord humbly in such situations. It might be a case of inaction, such as unbelief, or it might be that I have opened a door because of sinful action. In this particular case, I received a dream / vision which revealed to me the door by which Satan could attack my flesh. I repented of my sin and was healed. Izzy wrote: How do you know when something is a chastisement from the Lord vs a demonic attack, for instance? Chastisement in the form of sickness is not direct action on God's part. Do you think God puts sickness upon people? Which of us would chastise our children by infecting them purposefully with disease? What would you think of me if you learned that I purposefully infected my children with disease? Surely we cannot ascribe such abhorrent actions to a holy God. If we being evil do not do this to our children, then neither does a holy God do that to his children. Peace be with you.

RE: [TruthTalk] Gluttony Exercise
David, I've been meaning to ask you this. Every time you get sick do you take that as a sign that the Lord is chastising you? If so, do you think that whenever anyone else gets ill that God is chastising them? If not, what made you think your illness was a related issue to gluttony? How do you know when something is a chastisement from the Lord vs a demonic attack, for instance? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Miller Izzy wrote: How did you know that the Lord was chastising you?

RE: [TruthTalk] Gluttony Exercise
David, Seems to me that gluttony is the sin of food idolatry. I doubt that is your problem. :-) You, my DH, and I are just getting older (don't tell!) and not living the active life of a farmer. I'm probably the most active of the 3 of us, and still need to augment with daily doggie walks. I draw the line at making my muscles mad at me by using the ones I don't need for ADL's.

Re: [TruthTalk] Gluttony Exercise
gluttony entails 'overweight'--vice versa; it means consuming more[calories--in this case] than is necessary.. (e.g.) if gluttony is a function of covetousness (why not?), partic in an environment where starvation is a reality, too--and the overfed/overeaters are 40% while another 40% starve, thengluttons are in the position of (forced) covetousness where 'forced' relates to the 'force' of habit/habitually even stealing food from others.. and it easily becomes, as someone commented, a matter of 'policy'... even a political purpose to steal (e.g., food)...easily...from the (cyclical) starving...and use it as a political weapon..(e.g.) vs. 'oil' ftr, Republicans (like Iz) taught me to eat everything on my plate and load it up again from my own stove/refrig..groc store..Burger King..farm/s (land, rivers, lakes, highways, towns, harbors, refineries..)..bank account/s..stock portfolio/s..bomb factory/s.. but, ifwe pursue this far enough, DavidM,it'll become evident that all (inc Christian) politiciansthrive on certain margins of global corruption while (we the) people (conveniently 'think with there stomach/s' (another Dylan line)... which isinteresting in that JC--though he was a perceived glutton (he even said, 'the Son of man came eating and drinking')--often fasted... it mentions somewhere that he wentover a month without eating...could go days w/o food.. IOW, there all kinds of evidence that he took control of, responsibility for,his lifestyle--also, for us..he loved us.. and that's at the core of this issue, too; also, that it's obviously impossible totake this responsibility atan American voting booth...or even at an American church 'ye shall find rest for your souls' is eschatological--not a dream.. ..or a nightmare On Fri, 6 Jun 2003 20:12:16 -0400 "David Miller" [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hey Gary.

David Miller wrote: Hey Gary. Do you think a person can be overweight and yet not be guilty of gluttony? Gary wrote: gluttony entails 'overweight'--vice versa; it means consuming more [calories--in this case] than is necessary. So does that mean your answer is no? It sounds like you are saying that if a person is overweight, then he is guilty of gluttony. Can you define overweight? According to some, your weight of 240 with 6'2 height would still be overweight. I don't agree with that, but I have seen it. I am of similar height, weigh about 225, and I am considered overweight by some. You mentioned Jesus being accused of gluttony, yet point to his fasting as evidence he was not a glutton. I have fasted for more than a month, and also for weeks at a time. I have power over my body to eat or not to eat. Yet, people can look at my weight and easily accuse me of gluttony I think. In fact, I find that fasting exasperates my weight. When I break a fast, my body seems to be finely conditioned now to store up fat as quickly as possible, perhaps because it is conditioned to expect the next fast to come along. That's why I found your daily bread comment interesting. Perhaps I would have less difficulty if I focused upon small regular meals rather than fasting two or three times a week. I don't know. I'm thinking out loud. Gary wrote: it's obviously impossible to take this responsibility at an American voting booth...or even at an American church Do you think voting is wrong? Can you share some of your political views? Do you consider yourself a socialist or communist? I've asked several times before but I don't remember you answering.

RE: [TruthTalk] Gluttony Exercise
David, a couple of questions (if you don't mind me butting in!) How does one commit gluttony on only one meal/day? It seems unlikely that in one meal you could consume more than your daily caloric needs. ( or by gluttony do you mean just lusting about food?) When you committed gluttony in March was that just once, or a recurring habit? (Oh, please, don't tell me you ate an ice cream cone!) How did you know that the Lord was chastising you? What did He do? My DH (darling husband) is now trying to get us to reform in this area as well, and I am trying to prepare meals more wisely. He is also trying to get us to exercise more, but as for me just walking the dog and cleaning the house seems like enough!

How do you define gluttony and can you contrast that with laziness/lack of exercise? Do you consider laziness a sin on par with gluttony? This subject interests me because as a computer software developer, I don't get enough exercise during the regular course of the day unless I specifically exercise. In other words, I must set aside time to exercise, or my weight increases rather quickly. Am I perhaps masking gluttony by exercising? Should I cut down from one meal a day to perhaps one meal every other day if my inactivity warrants such, or would it be better to add more exercise to my list of things to do? I don't know if you remember last year, Gary, but gluttony is the sin that I committed in March of 2002. Gluttony is the thing which the Lord chastised me for. I am very cognizant that this is a weakness in me, and I am very much looking for a higher way. I don't pay a lot of attention to my personal nutrition. I feel like I just haphazardly go along. If I seem to be packing on some weight, I just stop eating or add more exercise. I've been thinking that perhaps I need to be more disciplined about it, but I'm not sure how to do it. When I was younger, I never had to think about it. My weight was always fine regardless of what I ate. As I now move past 43 years of age, I find my body much more sensitive to diet and exercise. It is time I learn how to properly address this aspect of my physical life, but with so many books out there and so many conflicting opinions, I'm not sure where to begin. Just last night my wife was saying to me, you spent all that time in biology and you are telling me you don't know how you should eat? Well, I was taught certain things which I don't trust, such as that pyramid with all the carbohydrates at the bottom. If I ate according to what I was taught, I believe I would be a huge blimp. Another thing I often think about is that in my biological studies, I learned how many animals change their diet through ontogeny. The young have a different kind of diet than the adults have. I think human beings might be kind of like this, but I don't see anyone considering that the kind of diet that would be best for children might be very different than what would be best for adults. I think treating children and adults the same might account for why obesity seems to be more of a problem for adults than for children. It is often referenced that the aged's metabolism slows down and accounts for this, but I truly wonder if that is the complete explanation. It seems to me that there is more to it than just that.

Whenever I have had the honor of working out with a fellow believer, I have sometimes quoted an abbreviated version of 1 Tim. 4:8 as a kind of motivational joke, well, you know what the Bible says, 'Bodily Exercise Profiteth!'

While the Democratic party is made up mostly of liars and thieves and homosexuals and killers, there are some Christian independents with no party affiliation that are better choices than most republicans, who are also mostly liars and thieves. Terry the Worst Republican is better than the Best Democrat or anything else. So that’s it in a nutshell—go forth and Vote! Iz IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here
