THE SECRET TO HEALTH
The Most High God is the one and only healer. Yes, God created herbs for humanity to be used as medicine, as was biblically proved in the "Our Beliefs" page, however, nothing takes place, good or bad, unless it's through God's will. No matter how healthy your lifestyle is in the physical world, you can still be sick if your spiritual lifestyle isn't healthy. Below is biblical evidence, once more, to support this claim.
