Stop funding sickness: Spend on healthy living

The healthy fruits

The healthy fruits


The immune system is made up of special cells, proteins, tissues, and organs, which defend people against germs and microorganisms every day. In most cases, the immune system does a great job of keeping people healthy and preventing infections. 



People therefore have the best chance to enjoy a perfectly healthy life, but the creation of man-made diseases to generate profit through pharmaceutical companies and the constant abuse of the body with dangerous products have taken their toll on the health of humanity, and the cost is taking both the wealthy and the poor to the land of pain and poverty.

 

Abuse and the craving for things unhealthy for the body have put our lives at stake. Large consumption of alcohol can affect one's health, yet people don’t care. Cocaine and other dangerous substances aren’t good for health, but many don’t care. 



It is written on a cigarette box, Companies and ‘The Surgeon General warns, cigarette smoking is dangerous,’ yet many ignore this warning and become human chimneys.

 

People drink heavily and get kidney problems, while others get cancer from long-term smoking. This can be prevented. Happiness in life isn’t always about being rich or living in luxury, because many are rich but suffering because of poor health. If you have good health, you will feel good and happy, even if you are not rich.

 

Someone can drive your car, cook for you, do your laundry, and iron your clothes, but no one can bear your sickness or drink medicine on your behalf. 

 

This is the reason one needs to live clean because life is precious. Spend your money on healthy food and not on drinks, and avoid making friends with the drugstore. They are happy when they see you coming for medicines because the corrupt medical system made it so.

GREAT BRITAIN: WHAT MAKES THIS COUNTRY TO BE GREAT?


Many British teenagers live on alcohol in Britain


Many British teenagers live on alcohol in Britain.



Frankly speaking, during my primary school education in Africa, I became fascinated with the country called 'Great Britain." Because travelers who have visited that country and those ready to go to London demonstrate certain things that make them elites. 


Truly, one is always given a special welcome, recognition, and attention in Africa when he or she returns from Britain.


When I arrived in Europe in 1986, what I used to read in their newspapers pushed me to find out what events or historical facts made this country be called 'Great Britain. 

Even though there is much crime in Africa, I believe that in Europe, Britain leads to criminal activities. Forgery, scams, falsification of documents and letters with the intention to defraud, credit card fraud, embezzlement, stealing, and rape are what make headlines in Britain.

Many people think the Dutch are stingy, but Britain is number one when it comes to stinginess. The whole world knows about this. They can't even leave a cent or penny behind for a cleaner when they lodge at hotels. 

It was in Northampton, Britain, that I saw two sisters quarreling over a can of Coca-Cola, which I had never witnessed in Africa, a Third World Country. Teenage pregnancy and alcoholism make headlines.

In fashion, Britain. Comes last. Even though they are famous fashion shops, the British dress shabbily. They wore poor, inferior shoes. Obesity is taking its toll on them. 

The police can't handle or cope with the surging waves of crime in the country. Stealing vehicles is on the rise. The country still drives on the wrong side of the road. 

The salary scale for general workers is very low. People rush in and out of underground stations as if the devil is chasing them.

I read recently that British undercover police are allowed to sleep with women they spy on as a source to gather information. Who is the police boss in that country? 

Is that the right way to gather information during an investigation?  To sleep with women as a source for information gathering during an investigation is a crime.

Maybe I'm completely wrong. But I don't see anything great about this country. I believe it's one of the most restless countries to live in the world. Wages are paid weekly, and all bills are paid weekly. 

Many people are roaming roofless, and drug addiction has taken its toll on many. Great Britain? Not at all, it's 'Hell Britain.'

GOD CAN'T BE BLAMED FOR OUR OWN ERRORS


The beauty of God's creation


The beauty of God's creation



Once, a couple desperate for a child but never had one said to me, "It's hard to live without a child when you love your wife dearly. We aim to have children, but we have never had one." 


I asked the man, who is in his early forties, if he had ever made that request to God.


"Is there any God at all? If there is, then he is a very wicked God." That was his answer. I asked him, if you do not believe that God exists, and never seek for him, why then does he seem wicked to you when you have no experience with him?" He laughed.

AMY WINEHOUSE TRAGIC DEATH IS A WASTE OF TALENT


Amy Winehouse


Amy Winehouse


The sudden death of British singer Amy Winehouse came as a shock to many of her fans worldwide, even though many people were aware of her alcohol and drug problems.

Despite how talented Amy was, her weakness to refrain from alcohol and drugs changed her image and personality, which caused her tragic death last Saturday at her London residence.


Amy Winehouse released only two albums in her life, one of which sold more than a million copies, and won five Grammys. Her soul-jazz style of singing, hairstyle, and the fashion of clothes she chose to wear made her different from many female musicians.


Amy Winehouse is not the only singer to die mysteriously of alcohol and drug-related problems. Jimmy Hendrix, Rick James, Elvis Presley, Carl Crack, Billy Murcia, Allan Wilson, and a host of others died of alcohol and drug causes. It was like they couldn't handle their own fame.

Amy's sudden death is another example of how alcohol and drugs can be disastrous to mankind. She was only 27, confirming it's true that the great really die young.

The link between UK social conditions, alcohol abuse, and teenage pregnancy


Britain: When alcohol takes its toll on you, where to sit or sleep doesn't matter

Britain, no doubt, is a famous tourist country. Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Number 10 Downing Street, etc., are places that make Britain unique in the tourism sector. 


But statistically, Britain is well known and famous too for the country's high percentage of alcohol consumption and the rise of teenage pregnancy.


Teenage pregnancy and alcoholism used to be social problems affecting Third World countries. For example, in Asia, Africa, and some parts of Latin America, poverty has escalated to alcoholism and underage prostitution.

WHY DO PEOPLE BLAME GOD FOR TODAY'S VIOLENCE?


There are many churches throughout Europe, but they are empty every Sunday


There are many churches throughout Europe, but they are empty every Sunday.


Christianity found its way to Africa through the white missionaries who went to the continent years ago, but it is like Africans have embraced the Christian faith than the whites themselves. 


It is very common to see Africans worshipping God in churches on Sundays, while on the same Sunday, you see Whites at the drinking pubs enjoying glasses of wine and beer. 


In Britain, a few churches had been converted to drinking pubs, yet the government is fighting hard against alcoholism, teenage pregnancy, hooliganism, and crime without success.


Many simply have no time at all to think of God, let alone to attend church service on Sundays to worship the creator. Once I visited a church in a small town in Rome-Italy called "Sacrofano." 


The beautifully designed ancient church attracted me into it with the desire to fellowship with them that Sunday.
 

I was shocked to see that the pastor was preaching to only two people in this big church. I joined them, and the number increased to three. 

In Antwerp, Belgium, most of the time I see people at the church when someone has died. It is like the church was built to pay last respect to only the dead, not the living.


The world today is full of turmoil, war, tribal conflicts, racism, discrimination, etc. All these problems are caused by man. Man decides to cause pain, havoc, and unrest to people and our societies, but not God.
 

Why then do people ignorantly ask, if there is God, why must all these problems occur? People drink and lose their minds to kill, stab, and beat their wives and children, yet many prefer to drink rather than read the Holy Bible, a book that heals our spiritual and physical problems.


Hebrews chapter 12:26-27, predicts that "Everything that can be shaken will be shaken.....so that only those things that can not be shaken will remain." This means that our jobs, retirement, pensions, children, health, etc, can be shaken at times. 


At the same time, the Bible says, "Everything shall pass, but the word of God shall be there forever." This is an important message to remind men to find solace in God by reading the Holy Bible. 


Alcohol, crime, and all the evil things men commit will lead us to a place we have never dreamt of, that is, going to hell and jail.
