""Biblical living was simple living.
It was natural. It was life lived as mankind's Creator meant it to be lived. This is not to say that everybody in biblical times was the picture of sparkling good health. The upper-class Romans in those times, for example, suffered from many of the same degenerative diseases that plague us. But they didn't live their lives in the same simple ways that the people of Israel lived theirs. They ate rich foods, drank far too much wine, and avoided physical exertion whenever possible. The way in which each group lived obviously determined the state of their physical and mental well-being.

A Simple, Natural Existence
One group—the Israelites—lived as their Creator meant them to live: simply, and in accord with nature. The other group, the Romans, lived their lives according to their adage: "Eat drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die." And, frequently, they did that. ""

As i explore into why i choose to live the way i do and forse it on David(hehe not really)
i sometimes wonder at why there is so much enviromental illnesses, and illnesses cause by nutritional causes,(even in christain circles) and why do we often contribute into making matters worse??
and i sometimes think how does God fit into this, what is his plan for Chrst-like living???
how valid is my thinking of looking after my body and health avoiding chemicals/substances i Know can damage me, even staying fit.?? How does this fit into the christain life?? my body has been designed and created by God, It's the temple of the holy spirit, he gave me my mind and emotions,
Is it important for me as a christain to care for these things as i do??
