Page 14 - Reasons for Sickness

His people a dietary law in the Old

Testament; He gave them sanitary laws, and

doctors even today will tell you that that

dietary law has some merit. But still that is

not the end of the story. The reason for

sickness is much broader than trying to nail

it down to one or two things. I've noticed

that it’s very easy for young people in their

20s and 30s and even into their 40s to say

that someone is out of the will of God if they

don't have perfect health. We need to be

very careful because, as we grow older, the

Bible tells us that infirmities and issues will

come into our lives. Ecclesiastes 12, verse 1,

calls those times “evil days.”
