In January 1976 I was told I had colon cancer. Not many years prior to my being told I had colon cancer; I had watched my own mother fight a losing battle with colon cancer. Mother was a registered nurse and after diagnosis was told by her doctors that her only hope of surviving the cancer was to yield her body to the medical modalities of chemotherapy, cobalt (radiation), and surgery.

Having great faith in her profession, mother willingly yielded her body to these medical modalities. When mother was first diagnosed there was no outward indication she was even sick, but once she began the cancer treatments, I saw mother’s health deteriorate quite rapidly until she died. At mother’s death I was convinced it wasn’t the cancer that ultimately caused her death, but rather it was the treatments she had allowed her body to be subjected to.

So in 1976 after being told I had the same type of cancer mother had died following medical treatments for, I refused any medical treatments, and went seeking an alternative to the medical route mother had chosen for her cancer.

If you have been reading my writings for very long, you know I sought the help of Evangelist Lester Roloff as to how I should deal with my cancer. Brother Roloff discouraged me from going the medical route and rather encouraged me to do something as simple as change what I ate, from the Standard American Diet (SAD) I had been eating previously, to the diet God gave Adam and Even in Genesis 1:29. He also encouraged me to drink lots of freshly extracted vegetable juices.

I took Brother Roloff’s advice and overnight did something as simple as change what I ate, and almost immediately began to get well. In fact, my rectal bleeding ceased almost immediately, and in less than a year the baseball size tumor underneath my left rib cage had simply disappeared, and all without medical interference. But not only did my cancer go away, so did all the other physical problems I was experiencing at the time.

God used that personal experience in 1976 to burden my heart to birth a ministry in 1992 called Hallelujah Acres. The purpose of the ministry was to bring to the Christian Community (and to anyone else who would listen) knowledge that when applied could “set the captives free”.

In 1992 I began sharing with all who would listen books and messages with such titles as “Why Christians Get Sick”, “How to Eliminate Sickness”, “God’s Way to Ultimate Health.” In the beginning, most Christians shunned the message, but gradually some listened, applied the information, and got well.

These who got well couldn’t keep from sharing with others how greatly their health had improved after adopting The Hallelujah Diet. Soon, people from around the world were writing to tell me of the wonderful improvements in their health they were experiencing after making the simple diet and lifestyle change I was proclaiming.

Today, 18 years later, millions from around the world have adopted the Hallelujah Diet, a 100% plant-based diet based on Genesis 1:19. As a result tens of thousands of the people who have adopted the diet have written to tell me that as a result of making a simple diet and lifestyle change, they have recovered from over 170 different physical problems, including terminal cancers.

These testimonies of recovered health following a simple diet and lifestyle change, and without the use of any drugs or other help from the medical community, caused me to ponder this question:

What Would America’s Health Be Like if Everyone Adopted the Hallelujah Diet?

As I began to think about that question, especially when considering all the conflict and turmoil currently going on in both the House and Senate, as well as across this nation these days with regards to Nation Health Care, I began writing down some of the effects the Hallelujah Diet & Lifestyle could have on the health of the American people if all were to adopt it:

Sickness Would Cease

One of the great tragedies of the current health care debate is the complete absence of consideration of the causes of the sickness and diseases people are experiencing. Sadly, all the rhetoric of the day concerns the treatment of disease after the person has become ill and how to pay for these treatments, rather than how to prevent these physical problems from occurring in the first place.

The bible tells us in Proverbs 26:2 that without a cause, sickness will not occur: “So the curse causeless shall not come.” Thus, if every American was to adopt the Hallelujah Diet, most sicknesses would cease! Why? Because when a person adopts the Hallelujah Diet they stop putting into their mouth the food and drink that has caused the physical or mental problems they were experiencing.

What most folks fail to realize is that every physical and mental problem being experienced today has a cause. And what is that cause? Almost every physical and mental problem being experienced today is caused by improper diet and/or lifestyle, and when we correct our diet and lifestyle, those problems almost always simply and usually quite quickly go away, and we don’t get sick anymore.

Sadly, we live in a society where we are taught that the physical problems we experience are not our fault; that our physical problems are caused by bad genes or bad germs, or bad viruses or bad bacteria, or some other outside and uncontrollable force, rather than being told that we can take control of our health by simply being careful not to place into our body the food and drink that cause physical problems.

Most doctors, because they have practically no training in nutrition in medical school, when asked by their patient if diet might have something to do with their physical problem, are told that what they eat has absolutely nothing to do with the physical problems they are experiencing. Sadly, it is like the blind leading the blind, and both fall into the same realm of sickness.

Doctors are just as sick as the patients they treat, experiencing the same physical problems their patients come to them to be treated for. This is understandable when you realize that the average doctor has less than two hours of training in nutrition during their eight years of preparation to be a medical doctor. God says in Hosea 4:6, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.”

Next, let’s take a look at the meals being served sick people in our hospitals. When you do, you will find that the food and drink being served are the very things that caused the physical problems they are in the hospital trying to recover from. Unknowingly, the hospitals are providing the food and drink that not only caused the illness but will likely cause it to reoccur.

Because the person experiencing the physical problem has been told by their doctor that what they eat has nothing whatsoever to do with the physical problems they are being treated for, they will continue to consume the very same food and drink that caused their physical problem in the first place.

Another facet of a hospital stay includes the taking of prescribed drugs. So, do these drugs take away the problem; or rather does that person usually have to remain on those drugs for the rest of their life in order to keep the symptom from returning, while often having to take another drug to subdue the adverse effects of the previously prescribed drug? Sadly, no one ever gets healed of the physical problems they go to doctors and take drugs for.

As I have traveled to most states in America as well as to a number of foreign countries these past 18 years sharing God’s Health Message, I often make the following statement during the seminar: “You tell me what your physical problem is, and I can usually tell you what you ate or drank to caused it.”

Then I proceed to name what I call the “Five Killer Foods,” the very foods that have contributed to or been the cause of the physical problem they are suffering with. After I discuss these five killer foods and share what physical problems these killer foods are causing, I encourage people to eliminate these foods from their diet.

Finally I encourage them to adopt an 85% raw plant based diet, including the abundant use of freshly extracted vegetable juices. These raw foods and their juices are what rebuild the immune system and essential organs. As the immune system and essential organs rebuild cell by cell, the body’s own self healing mechanism kicks in, seeks out the problems, and almost always the body simply heals itself of whatever the physical problem was.

If all the people of the America would make the simple diet and lifestyle changes we proclaim here at Hallelujah Acres, sickness could be practically eliminated, and Health Care costs drastically reduced.

In Health Tip #625, dated November 10, 2009, I began listing the physical problems people have reported recovering from after adopting the Hallelujah Diet. In that Health Tip I listed 45 different physical problems.

In Health Tip #626, dated November 17, 2009 I listed 45 additional physical problems that had gone away after adopting the Hallelujah Diet.

Following is a listing of an additional 45 more physical problems people have reported improvement in or recovering from after adopting the Hallelujah Diet to add to the previous 90:

• Kidney stones
• Knees: arthritic pain
• Leg cramps
• Leukemia
• Light-headedness
• Liver problems
• Losing hair
• Lupus
• Lyme Disease
• Lymph node inflammation
• Malnutrition
• Manic Depression
• Memory loss
• Menstrual problems
• Mental capacity
• Mental clarity
• Metal toxicity
• Migraines
• Mineral imbalance
• Miraculous recovery from fatal accident
• Mitral stenosis
• Mitral valve prolapsed
• Mood swings
• Motion sickness
• Multiple sclerosis
• Muscle cramps
• Muscle spasms
• Nausea
• Neck pain
• Night sweats
• Numbness

• Overweight
• Pain in back, hips, joints, knees, etc.

I am out of room once again, but will try and continue the listing next week. From the 135 physical and mental problems listed thus far, it should be quite obvious to most that God gave us a miraculous self-healing body, and that when we bring conditions conducive to healing about within it, the body will almost always do what God designed it to do, which is heal itself of whatever the problem is.
