One-fifth of the Gospel accounts is

devoted to Jesus’ healing ministry.

Out of 3,779 verses in the four Gospels, 727

relate specifically to the healing of physical and mental illness and the resurrection of the

dead.

The attention given to the healing ministry of Jesus is far greater than any one kind of experience recorded, including salvation.

“ Most of the medical, educational, publishing, and other institutions of the Seventh-day Adventist church are traceable directly or indirectly to the counsels of Ellen White.” They have 7806 schools and 173 hospitals and sanitariums.

“As the right arm is connected with the body, so the health reform and medical missionary work is connected with the third angel’s message, and is to work efficiently as the right arm, for the defense of the body of truth. “

(Ellen G. White, Review and Herald, June 20, 1899, Art. A, par. 10)

Mortality by cause, white non-Hispanics ages 45–54

STARTING around the turn of the millennium, the United States experienced the most alarming change in mortality rates since the AIDS epidemic. This shift was caused, not by some dreadful new disease, but by drugs and alcohol and suicide — and it was concentrated among less-educated, late-middle-aged whites.Based on Nobel laureate Angus Deaton and his wife, Anne Case. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/08/opinion/sunday/the-dying-of-the-whites.html?_r=0
