The Only Answer to Cancer – A Strong Immune System
Aug 16th
In my numerous seminars through the years, thousands of people have approached me with one of the books I have written in hand and asked if I would autograph it for them. Of course I have obliged by autographing their book. Under my autograph I always share Romans 12:1-2…
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)
To whom is God directing this portion of scripture?
Obviously, this Scripture is being directed to the born-again, blood washed believer in Jesus Christ! How do we know this? Because it says: “I beseech you therefore, brethren.”
And what is the subject of this directive?
Clearly it is talking about our individual bodies. “That ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God.” In other words, we are to surrender control of our body over to God. This verse says that doing so is only our “reasonable service.”
And what is the warning?
That we should not to be “conformed to this world” in how we take care of our physical bodies! Note the connecting word “and”. Verse 2 is clearly talking about the subject of verse 1, which is proper care of our bodies.
In the last two Health Tips, #715 and #716, I spoke extensively about Health Insurance and how Christians, rather than taking responsibility for our own health as God commands, have done the exact opposite. We have “conformed to this world.” We have been duped by the world into trusting its system called “Health Insurance” rather than taking charge and being responsible for our own health.
Here Is Where We Stand Today
The Christian community eats the world’s SAD diet, not the diet we are instructed by God to do in Genesis 1:29.
“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 (food).”
As a direct result of eating the world’s SAD diet, we get sick! There is an irreversible natural law involved here. “Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap” (Galatians 6:7).
After we get sick because of placing things into our bodies that God never intended, what do we do? Do we take back control of our bodies so we can recover from these physical problems using natural means? Oh, No! We run to get some prescription drugs. This very practice is condemned by God in Revelation 18:23. “…for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.”
The word “sorceries” in this verse comes from the Greek word “PHARMA-keia” from which we derive the word “PHARMA-cy” and “PHARMA-cist.” And what does a Pharmacist dispense in a Pharmacy? Drugs!
Do you think drugs are of God or are they of this world? We warn our children against the drugs of alcohol, nicotine, marijuana, cocaine, heroin, etc. However, if a drug prescribed by the doctor and paid for by Health Insurance, we see no problem placing it in our body.
Drugs Are Not the Answer
Prescription drugs, even if paid for by Health Insurance, are not the answer to the health of God’s people! Nor are they capable of restoring health.
Turning responsibility for our own health over to the world has serious consequences.
World’s Inability to Restore Health
The Bible warns us of the world’s inability to restore health to an individual in Mark 5:25-26:
“And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse”
For proof that the world’s system is incapable of restoring or maintaining health, just look at the state of health of the people in your church. What is the subject of the majority of the prayers?
Does not sickness abound? Did not the people we pray for go to the doctor, take their medicine and often have it all paid for by health insurance?
Are they getting better or are they time and time again getting worse? Each doctor and hospital visit they make brings them closer to the funeral. Then we lament that they were too young to die.
This my friends is the world’s way.
A Better Way
There is a better way to deal with our physical problems. I call it “God’s way!”
Reject the world’s way and take responsibly for your own health. That’s what I did 35-plus years ago. Millions of Christians around the world are doing it today.
You can read the results in the abundance of testimonies found in these weekly Health Tips, or by visiting Hacres.com for thousands more in over 100 different categories.
God Designed Our Bodies for Health
God did not design our bodies to ever experience sickness and cancer. When the body is nourished the way God tells us in Genesis 1:29, the immune system remains strong and protective, and the body remains healthy. Thus, a strong immune system cancer-proofs a body.
The immune system even has the ability to go far beyond just preventing cancer. Rebuilding the immune system actually provides a body the best chance of surviving a cancer even after it has been diagnosed.
A strengthened immune system gives us the best chance of restoring the body to wellness from most other physical problems as well.
That brings us back to the subject of this week’s Health Tip. I want us to understand what elements weaken and destroy the immune system and what restore it to a protective state.
What Weakens the Immune System?
- Refined Sugar – Refined sugar is an immune system suppressant! It hinders or destroys the immune system’s ability to protect a person from germs, viruses, bacteria, cancer, etc. Every time a person drinks a soda pop or eats candy, donuts, cake, pie, pastry or anything else containing refined sugar, they are disabling their immune system, making it less protective.
- Standard American Diet (SAD) – Our body cells are dependent on the nutrients made available from the foods we eat. The SAD does not provide our body cells with quality building materials. Without them there is a slow degeneration and deterioration of the entire cellular structure of the body, including the immune system.
- Cow’s Milk is responsible for most of the congestion and allergy problems people experience – children and adults. It is also responsible for many ear infections in children. Cow’s milk suppresses an infant or child’s immune system. Alternatively, Mother’s breast milk, vegetable juice and BarleyMax, are huge factors in building the infants or child’s immune system. Cow’s milk, organic or not, is a dangerous substance to place into the body of any human. God designed cow milk to nourish a 100 pound calf at birth and grow it to 2,000 or more pounds at maturity. He did not design cow’s milk for human consumption.
- Vaccinations – The number of immune destroying substances found in vaccinations is staggering. Detergents, formaldehyde, microbes, antibiotics, chemicals, heavy metals and animal byproducts, just for starters. We need to realize that when we allow these toxic substances to be injected into our bodies we are doing great harm to the immune system.
- Suppression Of Childhood Diseases – Suppression of childhood diseases through unnatural immunization (vaccinations) and drugs weakens the immune system. This puts the child at greater risk for eventually developing cancer and other serious physical problems.
- Early Puberty – God designed the female body to begin naturally producing estrogen after the age of 15. That’s when God designed puberty to begin. Today, puberty is beginning in little girls as young as 8 years of age. Why? The growth hormones (estrogen) found in the animal flesh, dairy, and soy jumpstart puberty. In addition to causing monumental social problems, this increases the risk for future breast cancer development. Research reveals that the earlier puberty occurs, the greater the risk for developing cancer later on.
- Dehydration – Most people do not drink enough purified water. Drinking liquids such as coffee, caffeinated teas, sodas, energy drinks and alcohol rather than providing the body with hydrating liquid only causes further dehydration.
- Routine Cancer Screening – Mammograms have never been proven to be safe or to prolong the life of a person. Rather they often lead to unnecessary surgeries while potentially activating otherwise dormant or benign conditions. Prostate Cancer Screenings do nothing but put money in the medical community’s pocket. These PSA tests have led many healthy men to undergo needless surgeries, severely damaging their quality of life.
- Colonoscopies can lead to perforation and bleeding of the colon wall, infections, and even death. Also, during the procedure, patients are given toxic drugs which further suppress and weaken the immune system.
- Other Immune System Killers
- Obesity and carrying excess weight
- Smoking (nicotine and marijuana)
- Drinking alcohol and the use of other drugs
- Drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water
- Dying of hair (the toxic dyes are absorbed into the blood stream)
- Consuming artificial sweeteners and foods containing MSG
- Eating French fries and other fried foods.
- Watching television for extended periods of time
- Sitting in front of a computer without protection for long periods
- Playing video games for long periods of time
What Strengthens the Immune System?
- Proper Diet – The most powerful rebuilder and maintainer of the immune system is proper diet! Our experience here at Hallelujah Acres has revealed that the most powerful immune system rebuilding diet available would consist of: approximately 85% raw plant foods along with about 15% cooked plant foods. Fresh vegetable juices are the most powerful cell building and immune system restoring foods we are aware of. Raw, organic green grass juice powders such as BarleyMax provide immune system cells with some of the greatest building materials, in convenient form, that we are aware of.
- Exercise – You have perhaps heard the phrase “use it or lose it.” That certainly is true concerning these physical bodies. God designed us to be almost constantly moving during our waking hours. Most of our forefathers were farmers and received daily vigorous exercise. Most people today are “couch potatoes” and receive little if any exercise. Vigorous daily movement of the body is as necessary in maintaining or strengthening the immune system as proper diet.
- Oxygen – God designed the physical body to be constantly taking oxygen into it with every breath. It is called the “breath of life” in Genesis 2:7. Just as the “life of the flesh in the blood,” the body cannot live without oxygen. A couch potato takes in very little oxygen and that leads to a weakened immune system. A well exercised body takes in copious amounts of oxygen and contributes to a strengthened and strong immune system.
- Sun – All life originated with the Son!
“All things were made by him (Jesus – the Son), and without him was not anything made that was made.” (John 1:3)
Jesus is the Creator, but He placed the Sun in the firmament with a purpose: “to give light upon the earth and to rule the day” (Genesis 1:14-18). All cell building nutrients come from the effects the Sun has upon the green plants through the process of photosynthesis. When we consume plant foods in their raw state we energize our bodies with the Sun’s energy (just like when we pray we energize our life with the Son’s power). When we fail to consume these energized plant foods, we weaken our immune system. The body also has need of the Sun’s rays falling upon its skin. Failure to provide the body with sunlight further weakens the immune system. If adequate sunlight is not an option, then supplementation with Vitamin D3 is imperative. - Rest – It is only while a person is sleeping that the body does its repair work. The most important hours of repair are the hours before midnight. In fact, some say that every hour before midnight is equal to two hours after midnight in repair ability. Ideal sleeping conditions would include a dark and quiet room with fresh air and burdens left with the Lord kneeling beside the bed before entering it. Most people require seven to nine hours per night of restorative sleep to maintain a strong immune system.
- Supplements – To help maintain a strong immune system or help rebuild a weakened one, there are several supplements that can help. BarleyMax, Vitamin B12, Omega 3 fatty-acid, Vitamin D and Iodine are the important ones.
The Choice Is Yours
In the book of Deuteronomy we read these words:
“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live.” (Deuteronomy 30:19)
Conclusion
It has been over 35 years, since being told I had colon cancer. I was given the choice of going the world’s way or God’s Way as a means of dealing with that cancer. I am so glad I chose God’s Way!
At the age of 42 I chose life by immediately changing my diet and lifestyle. My immune system was rebuilt using Genesis 1:29 foods, an abundance of vegetable juices and exercise.
The result is that I am still alive well over 35 years later and as I near my 80th birthday.
Now It Is Your Turn
Will you choose God’s Way of life or will you continue to take your chances going the world’s way? Will you “present your body” to God as He asks in Romans 12:1 or will you stubbornly head down a dangerous path?
I pray that you will choose God’s Way and life.
The Only Answer To Cancer – Revealed
Jul 26th
For the past two Health Tips, numbered 712 and 713, I have been commenting on our Health Tip poll which asks: “What Do You Think Offers the Best Hope in Dealing With Cancer?”
Following are the results from the 2,184 people who have taken the poll thus far:
- Changed diet and lifestyle (76% with 1,650 votes)
- Prayer (22% with 488 votes)
- Good doctors and cancer hospital (1% with 20 votes)
- No Idea (1% with 17 votes)
- Chemo, radiation, and surgery (less than 1% with 6 votes)
- Health Insurance (less than 1% with 3 votes)
In this Health Tip I want to comment on what drew the most votes in response to the question: “What Do You Think Offers The Best Hope in Dealing With Cancer.”
Changed Diet and Lifestyle: 76%
A changed diet and lifestyle drew the greatest response, a whopping 76% of the total votes! Now we must remember that this poll was taken on the Hallelujah Acres website and no doubt a large percentage of the responses were influenced by the teachings of this editor and Hallelujah Acres.
It would be interesting what the response would be to the above poll questions if done among those not aware of the teachings of Hallelujah Acres. I have no doubt that the numbers would be turned completely upside down, with “health insurance, chemo, radiation, and surgery” along with “good doctors and cancer hospitals” receiving the greatest number of votes.
Why would those not aware of the teachings of Hallelujah Acres choose these as offering the best hope in dealing with cancer? Because they are not aware that there is another and better way.
Here is how God explains it in the Bible: “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” (Hosea 4:6)
In this Health Tip I want to share some information concerning “cancer” that will hopefully help readers understand what “offers the Best Hope in Dealing with Cancer” – And beyond that, “THE ONLY ANSWER TO CANCER!” Let’s begin by answering a few questions concerning cancer:
What Is Cancer?
“Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by out-of-control cell growth. There are over 100 different types of cancer, and each is classified by the type of cell that is initially affected. Cancer harms the body when damaged cells divide uncontrollably to form lumps or masses of tissue called tumors (except in the case of leukemia where cancer prohibits normal blood function by abnormal cell division in the blood stream).
“Cancer is ultimately the result of cells that uncontrollably grow and do not die. Normal cells in the body follow an orderly path of growth, division, and death. Programmed cell death is called apoptosis, and when this process breaks down, cancer begins to form. Unlike regular cells, cancer cells do not experience programmatic death and instead continue to grow and divide. This leads to a mass of abnormal cells that grows out of control.”

Where Does Cancer Originate?
Before we go any further in pursuing the subject of cancer or accepting medical treatments for cancer if we or a loved one has already been so diagnosed, we need to have an understanding of where cancer originates.
To do this we need to go back to the beginning – to where these physical bodies originated – back to creation.
“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” (Genesis 2:7)
After God had created that first human body (Adam’s), and from Adam’s rib formed Eve, all future human physical life began at the cellular level. An egg cell from the mother and a sperm cell from the father were joined together at conception. These two cells began to rapidly multiply until an entirely new physical body had been formed.
These living cells are what the entire human physical body is comprised of. By the time a new physical body is fully developed, it has approximately 100 trillion living cells.
Once the body has been fully formed and reached its full complement of cells, this extremely rapid proliferation of cells is designed to cease according to God’s design. From here on and for the rest of that person’s life, these cells are designed to orderly replace approximately 300 million of the old cells with 300 million new cells every minute of every day for the rest of a person’s life.
God, in His infinite wisdom, made these bodies of ours to constantly be in the process of renewal and regeneration – replacing old cells with new cells in an ORDERLY fashion.
However, the quality of the new cell replacing the old cell is totally dependent on the building materials available to it as it dies and replaces.
Providing quality building material for these living cells as they die and replace should be of highest priority for each of us, because this is something God has given us total control over.
That’s right; the quality of the new cell replacing the old cell is determined by us, not by God, our doctor, nutritionist, nor by anyone else!
Cancer in most instances is simply the end result of reaping what we have been sowing, something most people have total control over. Here is how the Bible says it:
“Be not deceived, God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” (Galatians 6:7) “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 12:2)
What We Eat and Drink Determines Cell Quality
The key to quality of life and length of life is what we place into our bodies for nourishment each and every day of our life, along with the exercise our body receives. Most of us have total control over what we eat and how much we exercise!
In order to maintain a healthy body, we must realize that the quality of the new cell that is replacing the old cell is totally dependent on the building materials we provide it as it dies and replaces.
Poor building material produces a weaker cell than the one it is replacing – while quality building material produces a superior cell.
To gain a better understanding of how God intended us to nourish these living cells we need to go back to the first two chapters of Genesis. There we see that after God had created Adam (See Genesis 1:27 and Genesis 2:7), He placed him in a Garden (See Genesis 2:8-9), and told him what to eat in Genesis 1:29:
“AND GOD SAID, Behold, I have given you every herb (vegetable) 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 (FOOD).” (Genesis 1:29)
Now comes something of extreme importance – these garden foods were RAW – they were in their LIVING form, and contained their full complement of enzymes.
It is worth noting that all animal creations of God in the wild, since creation to this present day, whether vegetarian or carnivorous, instinctively consume their food in its natural, raw, LIVING, enzymatically alive form, as served up by God in nature.
Sadly, most of mankind has lost this natural instinct. Rather than consuming food in its raw state as God intended, today we cook most of our foods before consuming them.
In addition, man has added numerous non-garden foods to his diet (animal flesh and dairy) along with refined sugar and grains and a vast array of toxic chemicals.
Wrong Fuel Produces Progressively Weaker Cells
Continuing to consume a diet comprised primarily of dead food, along with non-garden foods and toxic chemicals, results in a slow degeneration and deterioration of the cellular structure of the entire body.
The longer a person remains on this toxic and primarily dead food diet, the greater the breakdown of the entire cellular structure of the body.
Cancer Is Simply Cells Multiplying Out Of Control
Since I was first told I had cancer in 1976, I have been researching this subject. And friend, after over 35 years of research, I have boiled it down to this simple explanation of just what cancer is:
Cancer is nothing more, nor less, then cells multiplying out of control! No matter what name the medical community gives it (they have over 110 different names for cancer depending upon location), all cancer cells are merely maverick, out of control, misbehaving cells, behaving in a way God never intended. And there is a reason why:
Immune System Breakdown
What is the Immune System?
“The immune system is the body’s defense against infectious organisms and other invaders. Through a series of steps called the immune response, the immune system attacks organisms and substances that invade body systems and cause disease. The immune system is made up of a network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect the body. The cells involved are white blood cells, or leukocytes, which come in two basic types that combine to seek out and destroy disease-causing organisms or substances. . . .”
http://www.bing.com/health/article/kidshealth-1250015914/Immune-System?q=immune+system
God gave each one of us an immune system to protect us from germs, viruses, bacteria, misbehaving cells, maverick cells, cancer cells, and so much more. However, when our immune system is not kept strong through proper nourishment and consistent bodily exercise, our immune system fails to protect us as God designed.
It is imperative that we remember our immune system is comprised of living cells, just like the entire rest of our body, and just like every other cell in our body, the quality of the new immune system cell replacing the dying immune system cell is totally dependent on the building materials we provide it as it dies and replaces.
When we get sick or experience cancer, it is not God’s fault!
In most instances, it is our own fault, due to our failure to properly nourish our cells as they die and replace, and our failure to maintain a strong and protective immune system.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Next week, the good Lord willing and if the creeks don’t rise too high, we will share with our readers how to maintain an already strong immune system or rebuild an already compromised immune system so that it can perform its God designed protection.
Included in next week’s Health Tip we will not only share “The Only Answer to Cancer” with regards preventing the disease, but also the best way to overcome cancer after it has been diagnosed. Trust you will join us for this exciting upcoming issue.
Cancer – Dealing With It God’s Way
May 17th
Before we share “God’s Way of Dealing with Cancer”, we need to review some of the things we previously learned in this Health Tiip series. We learned:
- Cancer is out-of-control cell growth
- Cancer is caused by cells that grow uncontrollably and do not die
- What we eat and drink determines cell quality
- Where cancer had its beginning
- How modern medicine deals with cancer
- Most cancer fatalities are due to chemotherapy
- Our God-given bodies have an inherent ability to self-heal — even from cancer
If we want to undo cancer, we must first stop doing what caused it! And if it is improper diet and lifestyle that caused the immune system to so weaken that cancer could develop, does it not make logical sense that stopping the cause and rebuilding the immune system would be a better approach?
Refined Sugar Destroys the Immune System
Refined sugar is an immune system suppressant – it knocks out the immune systems protective abilities. Our immune system was given to us by God to protect us from germs, viruses, bacteria, and yes – cancer!
A weakened immune system is what allows cancer cells in their early development to go undetected and multiply.
Animal Protein Feeds Cancer
Dr. T. Colin Campbell, author of “The China Study,” found that animal flesh protein and even more so dairy protein (casein), feeds cancer and accelerates cancer growth.
If a person desires to overcome cancer, they must stop providing cancer cells with these powerful building materials.
Plant Based Diet Rebuilds Immune System
A predominantly raw, 100% plant-based diet, including an abundance of freshly extracted raw vegetable juices, provides the body with the quality building materials it desperately needs to rebuild a broken down immune system.
As the immune system rebuilds, the self-healing God programmed into Adam and Eve (which has been passed down from generation to generation in the genes eventually to each of us) kicks in.
As a rebuilt immune system starts to function as God designed, the body’s strengthened immune system seeks out the cancer cells (those cells multiplying out of control).
In most instances, the body simply destroys them without any help from chemotherapy, radiation, or even surgery.
The Hallelujah Diet To The Rescue!
The Hallelujah Diet provides the body with those building materials the body so desperately needs in order to rebuild a weakened and poorly functioning immune system. This editor has personally experienced this phenomenon!
In 1976, at the age of 42, following rectal bleeding, a tumor was discovered under my left rib cage, and I heard those chilling words – “It’s Cancer!” Just prior to my being told I had colon cancer, mom had died following a bout with colon cancer.
Mom had gone the medical route with the same type of cancer and at her death I was convinced mom had not died from the cancer but rather as a result of the immune system destroying modalities of chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.
Because of mothers devastating experience, I went seeking an alternative.
In my search I turned to Evangelist Lester Roloff, (ridiculed as a “Health Nut” by many preachers). Brother Roloff encouraged me to eliminate all refined sugar and animal source foods from my diet and to adopt God’s Genesis 1:29 diet, a diet comprised of 100% plant foods along with an abundance of freshly extracted vegetable juices.
I made the diet change overnight and almost immediately began to get well. Not long after making the diet change the rectal bleeding suddenly stopped. Within a year, the baseball sized tumor was gone, and all without any medical interference or modalities.
That was over 35 years ago, and as I near that rapidly approaching age of 80, I find myself strong, healthy, and to the best of my knowledge, cancer-free. I have a muscular body capable of doing almost anything physically I could do as a teenager, with endless energy, a sound mind, a zest for life, and a passion to tell anyone who will listen: “You Don’t Have to be Sick!”
Because God allowed me the privilege of experiencing cancer in 1976 and led me to Lester Roloff who revealed to me God’s way of dealing with cancer, a new ministry called Hallelujah Acres was birthed in 1992.
As a result, millions around the world today are following “God’s Way” to health, while tens of thousands have written to tell me that following “God’s way” they have recovered from over 170 different physical problems, including even terminal, metastasized, stage 4 cancers.
Yes my friend, there is a better way than the “World’s Way” of dealing with cancer, as well as most other physical problems — it’s God’s Way!
Here is what the Bible has to say about the “World’s Way:”
“For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.” (I Corinthians 3:19)
“And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse.” (Mark 5:25-26)
“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.” (Romans 12:1)
“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 12:2)
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” (Hosea 4:6)
Next week, the good Lord willing, we will share how The Hallelujah Diet goes about rebuilding the immune system so that the body can heal itself of cancer. We will deal with the roll juices play, why some cooked food is included, the importance of vitamin D and 0mega-3 fatty acids, the role stress and constipation play, the importance of fresh air and pure water, and so much more. I trust you will join us.
And be sure to visit the testimonies section of this Health Tip and read the amazing testimonies from individuals who recovered from serious cancers after providing their bodies with the nutrients necessary to rebuild their immune systems so that their body could fight and win their cancer battle naturally.
Cancer – A Natural Approach (Part 2)
May 3rd
In last week’s Health Tip we dealt with: “What is Cancer; What Causes Cancer;” and under the heading “Understanding Cancer’, began to lay some ground work for where we pick up the subject today.
Understanding Cancer
Our physical bodies are comprised of approximately 100 trillion living cells. God, in His infinite knowledge and wisdom, made these living cells to be constantly in the process of renewal and regeneration – replacing old cells with new cells at the rate of approximately 300 million per minute, every minute of every day.
However, there is something of vital importance here in understanding this process of cell replacement. As these old cells die and are being replaced with new cells, the quality of the new cell replacing the old cell is totally dependent on the building materials available to it as it dies and replaces.
Providing quality building materials for these living cells as they die and replace should be of highest priority for each of us, because this is something God has given us total control over. That’s right; the quality of the new cell replacing the old cell is determined by each of us, not by God, not by our doctor, nor by anyone else!
And cancer in most instances is simply the end result of reaping what we have been sowing, something most people have total control over, whether they want to acknowledge it or not. Here is how this works:
What We Eat and Drink Determines Cell Quality
What you eat and drink today will become the building materials for what your body will consist of tomorrow. The major key to quality of life and length of life is what we place into our bodies for nourishment each and every day of our life, along with the exercise our body receives on a daily basis. This is something most of us have total control over!
The qualities of the new cells that are replacing the old cells are totally dependent upon the building materials we provide them. Poor quality building materials produce weaker cells than the one’s they are replacing, while superior quality building materials produce superior cells.
God, in His infinite wisdom, placed Adam in a garden designed to nourish his living cells with quality building materials as they died and replaced. God clearly articulated in Genesis 1:29 what these quality building materials should consist of – a diet comprised of RAW plant sourced foods, available exclusively from a garden.
Notice that I said these garden foods were all RAW – that means they were in their LIVING form, and contained their full complement of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, enzymes, and so much more. Obviously, these Genesis 1:29 foods were not in a cooked form!
It is also worth noting that all the animal creations of God in the wild, since creation to this present day, whether they be vegetarian or carnivorous, instinctively consume their food in its natural, RAW, LIVING form, as served up by nature, a nature created by God.
Sadly, mankind has lost the natural instinct to consume food in its natural, RAW form as God intended. Today we cook most of our food before consuming it. In addition, man has added numerous non-garden foods to his diet along with numerous toxic chemicals.
All Cooked Food Is Dead Food
It is important to realize that all cooked food is totally devoid of enzymes (its life force), most of the antioxidants, and has lost a high percentage of its vitamins.
So why does The Hallelujah Diet include 15 percent cooked vegetables? We have learned that some nutrients are not heat sensitive and thus still available after cooking. Also, not all antioxidants are destroyed by the heat. In fact, beta carotene is more bio-available in cooked foods than in raw. However, raw foods should still make up 85 percent of one’s menu on The Hallelujah Diet.
Continuing to consume a diet comprised of predominantly dead food, along with non-garden and toxic foods, results in a slow degeneration and deterioration of the entire cellular structure of the body.
Because cooked food is DEAD food, it is incapable of providing all the quality building materials necessary to build a healthy, living, vibrantly alive, new cell. As a result, new cells that are replacing old cells, because of a lack of quality building materials, are weaker than the ones they are replacing.
The longer a person remains on this dead, cooked and toxic food diet, the greater the breakdown of the entire cellular structure of the body. With that as a little bit of background, let’s see if we can determine what cancer is and where it originates…
Cancer Is Simply Cells Multiplying Out Of Control
Since I was first told I had colon cancer back in 1976, I have been researching the subject of cancer. After more than 35 years of research, I have boiled it down to this: cancer is nothing more nor less than cells multiplying out of control!
No matter what name the medical community gives it (and they have over 110 different names for cancer depending on its location within the body), all cancer cells are merely maverick cells multiplying out of control.
Fearfully and Wonderfully Made (Psalm 139:14)
Science tells us that within one to two years, some 98% of our 100 trillion living cells that comprise our physical body today will have been replaced with new cells.
In this replacement process, every once in a while a new cell breaks its orderly replacement process of simply dying and replacing, loses control, and becomes what we call a maverick cell. This is a normal and natural occurrence in each of us. We all, from time to time, produce maverick cells.
Fortunately, God made provision for the destruction of these maverick cells. God, in His infinite foreknowledge, placed what are called “T” cells within our blood to search out and destroy these maverick cells before they develop into cancer cells.
The diet most people consume today is comprised of cooked and deep fried vegetables (French fries), cooked and deep fried meats, cooked dairy (pasteurized), cooked refined flour and sugar products, a diet loaded with toxic table salt, and caffeine. This diet is often referred to as the Standard American Diet (SAD). Rhonda calls it “Satan’s Alternative Diet.”
When a person consumes this SAD diet, that person is failing to provide their living cells with the quality building materials necessary to keep their physical body strong and resistant to cancer. This junk building material, devoid of its life force and full of toxins, is incapable of providing living cells with quality building materials.
This lack of quality building materials causes serious cellular breakdown and deterioration, resulting in a slow but steady decline at the cellular level of our body. This decline continues as long as we fail to provide our living cells with quality building materials.
Our immune system, given us by God to protect us from germs, viruses and bacteria (and cancer), is compromised when we consume the SAD. As a result, our immune system becomes weaker, less efficient, and less protective the longer we remain on this SAD diet.
When we fail to provide our living cells with quality building materials, we are also consuming huge quantities of garbage. Our bodies become littered junkyards of accumulated dead debris and toxic material.
Our bodies then have the monumental task of not only trying to clean up the debris and overcoming all these toxins we have placed within our body, but also trying to do it with a weakened, inefficient, and compromised immune system.
Where Cancer Has Its Beginning
When our body becomes overwhelmed with toxins and our weakened immune system can no longer cope, a maverick cell that should have been detected and destroyed by a “T” cell may not be detected and destroyed as God designed.
Instead, it starts to grow and split out of control because it has escaped detection. This is where cancer has its beginning, and receives a name depending on its location within the body.
We all produce maverick cells with the potential of becoming cancer cells. However, if our immune system is kept strong and functioning properly with a predominantly raw, plant-based diet, including lots of freshly extracted raw vegetable juices, the immune system will be strong enough to naturally seek and dispose of these maverick cells before they become cancer cells.
Conclusion
Next week, the good Lord willing, we will take a look at how the medical community deals with these cancer cells today, and then see if we can’t find a better way of dealing with them. I trust you will join us next week as we approach the conclusion of this series on “Cancer – How to Deal With It Naturally.”
The Naked Truth About Vitamin D
Dec 14th
Most people already know the story of how God created the heavens and the earth. He made all the animals and the people and everything was good (see Genesis 1 & 2 for the whole story). We read with wonder at how that He made the sun and the moon. Then with sheepish grins, we come to an embarrassing truth. The man and woman were naked in the garden (Genesis 2:25).
What Has All This Got To Do With Vitamin D?
Plenty! Sun exposure on the skin has been God’s natural provision for vitamin D both in the garden some 6,000 years ago to today!
God knew what He was doing! As we have recently learned, UVB rays from the sun provide the most effective, most reliable, most abundant, most natural source of vitamin D.
Vitamin D sufficiency, along with proper diet and exercise, has been shown to be the most important preventative factors in human health. Hundreds of studies link vitamin D deficiency with significantly higher rates of many forms of cancer, as well as heart disease, osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, and numerous other diseases.
Sunlight Has Been Given A Bad Rap
For years we have been told by the so-called experts of our day that we must avoid the sun’s rays that God allowed to fall upon Adam and Eve. These experts tell us that sun exposure can lead not only to skin cancer, but also premature aging of the skin (wrinkles), cataracts, and more.
It is important for everyone to understand that the dangers of sun exposure have been greatly exaggerated and the benefits of sun exposure greatly underestimated.
God designed the human body to receive daily exposure to the sun’s rays for numerous reasons. For one thing, the sun provides the body with building materials needed to produce vitamin D, one of the most basic and important elements the body needs.
If you still believe the sun’s rays are dangerous, it is imperative that you reevaluate your thinking. Continue to shun the sun’s rays and you could needlessly experience numerous physical problems — problems you can avoid if you enjoy the sun.
It is Important to Avoid Sunburn
While it is important that we expose our skin to the sun to obtain our vitamin D, we must not overexpose our bodies to the sun’s rays. This can indeed be dangerous.
By the way, did you know that numerous people who sunburned very easily before adopting The Hallelujah Diet report that they now find it almost impossible to burn?
My wife, Rhonda, is an example. Before adopting The Hallelujah Diet, she would develop severe blisters and even sunstroke after just a short time in the sun. But since being on The Hallelujah Diet she sometimes spends the entire day in the sun helping me in the garden.
What has made the difference in her body’s reaction to the sun?
The key factor in the cause of sunburn is a lack of sufficient antioxidants. Raw fruits and vegetables – especially vegetable juices and BarleyMax – are loaded with antioxidants, while the Standard American Diet is almost totally devoid of them.
If you are a person who has previously allowed your skin limited access to the sun, try this. Next spring or summer, begin exposure to the sun slowly, say 10 to 15 minutes a day. Then, progressively increase your time in the sun over the next few weeks.
Interestingly, while some medical experts warn people to avoid the sun in order to prevent skin cancer, there is good evidence that sun exposure without burning actually decreases the potential of developing it.
Vitamin D Helps Protect the Body from Numerous Diseases
Vitamin D is entirely different from all other vitamins. Technically, it is a prohormone your body produces from the good kind of cholesterol your body produces naturally. Being a prohormone, vitamin D influences the entire body. Receptors that respond to this hormone are found in almost every cell within the body.
When a person receives regular exposure to the UVB rays of the sun, the vitamin D levels of the body are increased. Studies show these increased levels of vitamin D help protect the body from numerous diseases:
- Many types of cancer
- Heart disease
- Diabetes
- Autoimmune disease
- Osteoporosis and even depression
D-fending You Against the Flu
Better and far safer than any flu vaccine man can create, vitamin D helps produce antibacterial peptides. These help protect you against the flu.
Did you ever notice that more people get the flu in winter? This is why. In winter there is little sunshine so people are more prone to vitamin D deficiency. The flu may simply be a symptom of this vitamin D deficiency. (Food Consumer March 7, 2010)
Vitamin D increases the body’s production of up to 300 different antimicrobial peptides that are far more effective in protecting one against the flu than any synthetic antibiotic or antiviral. It’s also a small fraction of the cost.
Lead researcher Carsten Geisler told Food Consumer: “When a T cell is exposed to a foreign pathogen, it extends a signaling device or ‘antenna’ known as a vitamin D receptor, with which it searches for vitamin D. If the T cells cannot find enough vitamin D in the blood, they won’t even begin to mobilize.”
This is why flu shots don’t work. When the immune system is not working properly because of a deficiency of vitamin D, the toxins in the flu shot do additional damage to the immune system while the side-effects from the flu shot have at times proved deadly.
Dr. Blaylock tells us that if a senior citizen receives an annual flu shot for 5 consecutive years they increase their potential of Alzheimer’s by 1,000 percent because of the mercury in the shot. I have personally known three individuals who did not have the flu at the time of the flu vaccinations, but after receiving the vaccination died of the flu.
How Can We Strengthen Our Immune System?
God gave us an immune system to protect us against germs, viruses, and bacteria. But the immune system can only function optimally when it is kept strong through proper diet and lifestyle.
The strength of our immune system is not determined by our doctor. Rather, God has given each of us the ability to keep it strong.
- Adopt a mostly raw, 100% plant based diet (like The Hallelujah Diet)
- Remove all refined sugar from the diet (sugar is an immune suppressant)
- Aerobically exercise the body daily
- Obtain adequate rest
- Avoid stress as much as possible
- If you can’t get enough sunshine to produce adequate vitamin D [which is impossible in northern climates most of the year] take a daily vitamin D3 supplement.
Rhonda and this editor each take 5000 IU of vitamin D3 daily year-round. Children need 1,000 to 2,000 IU.
If you choose to supplement, make sure it is with vitamin D3. Vitamin D2 is the synthetic kind found in homogenized milk and is often prescribed by physicians. It does not offer the same protection as D3.
Many people have chosen to make the small investment of $35 to get a vitamin D blood test through Hallelujah Acres. This test will verify whether your vitamin D level is within the optimum range.
