About the Author

About eight years ago my husband and I were impressed to read the Bible through and, at the same time, the Conflict of Ages series by Ellen White. At that time, we were computer illiterate and I did not know how to type. We were impressed to get satellite, for the 3ABN programming, which we watched and taped numerous shows on health, spiritual growth, Bible prophecy and the history of His church, from Adam and Eve to our present day. We have been impressed to share videos and write articles about the things we have been learning ever since.

Our Heavenly Father has led us through trial and error for our edification and purification. It has not been an easy road but we thank Him for it because without these trials we would still be set in a state of self-centered abyss. While we are acutely aware that there is much needed change yet to take place in us, we have been given a message of hope and warning to share with others. We are still in the learning mode and what we share may most likely need to be revised as we learn.

Fifteen years ago my immune system shut down due to abuse of nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, stress and resentment. I was a total mess. Finally, when I could barely get out of bed I said to my Creator, "Please, I have made a total mess of my life. Either let me die or take control." That is when the journey really began. In hindsight I can see that He was always there, but I didn't see Him until I wanted His help. Our Blessed Savior never forces His will on us. My Redeemer put a number in my head which I called. It was a health food store fifty miles away. I told the voice over the phone, of the various auto-immune disorders I had and asked if she could send me information on how to heal them naturally. The doctors had put me on experimental drugs that had side effects worse than the diseases they were supposed to cure.

The very next day I received in the mail a packet, about an inch thick, of photo-copies of probably every article available in that store on the immune disorders I had. It had to be by divine intervention for this packet to reach me so quickly. I stopped taking all medication and turned to the Great Healer entirely for help. I poured through the myriad of information and was overwhelmed. I prayed, "Please guide me through this, I can not do it myself." He caused me to come to the conclusion that the best thing for me to do right then was take CoQ10 in mega doses. This helps to get rejuvenating oxygen to the vital organs. Oxygen is healing. This is why most major league teams have a hyperbolic chamber for the injured players. The oxygen under pressure increases the rate of the healing process. Later He brought me to the health message of His design.

Before turning to my Savior I had all but alienated my grown daughters from me. Because of chronic fatigue I could not work and lost my job. As a consequence, I also lost my property. I was at the bottom with no where to go but up. I moved in with one of my daughters, as a live-in babysitter for my grandchildren. While there I would go outside to smoke. I began to feel more and more unfit for this responsibility. One day, after 33 years of heavy smoking, I held up the cigarette and said, "I can't quit. For the children, You must take it from me." I walked into my bedroom and threw away two new cartons of cigarettes, which on disability was very expensive. And nine years later, I haven't had a desire to ever have another cigarette and my lungs are clean, praise our Great Physician.

Gradually He removed the desire for all unhealthy substances including animal products which are so heavily dosed with chemicals and illness. I look at cheese today and I see bacteria and mold. I see blood and pus in a glass of milk. In their greed, the animal product industry have so abused and perverted the meat and dairy items that they are no longer fit for human consumption. My Blessed Savior pointed out "the life is in the blood" and when the growers pump the animals full of growth hormones and other chemicals it causes a chain reaction which in turn causes blood and pus to collect in the meat/milk of the animal. We are told "not to eat the blood or the fat" and I know that although I may not know the exact reason for it, He has a very important reason for us to leave these things alone. And I trust the One who created us to know what is best for us.

I had begun searching for truth years before my illness but 'self' got in my way. Our Benevolent Benefactor is so patient and kind. At one point I had requested to have Bible study with the Seventh-day Adventist church, but when the sweet couple came to my door I felt so repulsive and ashamed I had to turn them away. Through various means our gracious King of kings has brought His truth to my attention. Video presentations, Bible studies, seminars and nature have all been employed to give me a better understanding of who He really is. He has helped me develop a personal relationship with Him. Finally, I came to the point of being baptized into the faith I knew held the truth for our time. And when I thought I would be single the rest of my life; He brought me and my husband together. We both know it is because of my weakened physical state and to afford me the opportunity to minister to my children and grandchildren. Our Blessed Provider is so wonderful.

My husband is a gentle, quiet man. For most of his life he had been a pew warmer in the Seventh-day Adventist church. But a few crushing blows had brought him to the realization that he was in need of a personal relationship with his Savior. We had arrived at the same stage in our spiritual growth when we were brought together. We have been on a learning roller-coaster ride for over eight years, together. Like I said, 'it has not been an easy road, but we thank our Heavenly Father for the experience.

I had known of the Jewish faith in my teens but wanted nothing to do with organized religion until just before my illness. My husband, being an SDA all of his life, knew of the Sabbath and tithing and some of the health laws but didn't have a healthy appreciation for their meaning. When we began to study His word and read the Conflict of the Ages series together a whole new awareness opened before us. We began to see His awesome character through the teachings of not only the New but also the Old Testaments. We began to learn the broader meaning of His law [teachings] and what they encompassed. We saw that His statutes and judgments were like love letters to us much the same as a loving parent will leave notes of instruction and loving encouragement and/or rebukes for the benefit of their children. We began to appreciate these love letters from Him and to implement them into our lives. The more we lived our faith the more He opened to our understanding. My husband and I re-dedicated our lives to Yahushua (the true name of our Blessed Messiah) and were re-baptized in 2003.

It is our prayer that our Heavenly Father will use us in a mighty way to be tools to help spread the Good News about our Almighty Father and His Son, our Righteous Redeemer, Yahushua the Anointed.
