Journeying Towards the Spiritual: A Digest of the Spiritual Man in 42 Lessons Quotes

“Numerous Christians do not know how to glorify God in their eating and drinking. They do not eat and drink simply to keep their body fit for the Lord's use but indulge to satisfy their personal desires.

Food ought not hinder our fellowship with God since it is to be taken purely to preserve the body in health.”
