BRINGING THE BIG “C” WORD, CANCER,
DOWN TO SIZE
The main
emphasis of most fund raisers and promotional material directed towards cancer
is “Let’s Find A Cure.” Hundreds of
millions of dollars have been raised towards a cure. But still “no cure.” Although the theme seems right to most, this
presentation does not address the subject of which cancer. There are many studies and opinions, but even
with all the high-tech modalities (treatments) that attempt to “cure” cancer
via chemotherapy and radiation, the average survival rate is five years
although there are exceptions.
Cancer is
not an accident! There is always a cause and effect with any sickness and
disease. It is a result of converging
spiritual, psychological, and environmental mixes that contribute to an
atmosphere conducive for cancer cells to thrive. Cancer thrives in an acidic environment, but
then fear, anxiety and stress contribute to acidity. Is it possible that the alkaline environment
could be achieved by taking our peace?
Then there
is the white corpuscle killer called Cortisol that is released like a leaky
faucet in direct relationship to fear and stress. Victimization and broken relationships also
create an atmosphere of fear, dread, sadness, hopelessness, and despair
(depression). Despair is sometimes
expressed at the cellular level as Malignancy (the quality or state of being).
It has been the observation of Henry Wright that there is a
very high statistical connection between females who get breast cancer in the left
breast and unresolved conflict between her and another female family
member. This observation also has shown
breast cancer in the right breast can be because of unresolved conflict
between her and a non-blood female relative; conflict with her mother-in-law is
highly implicated.
There seems
to be perhaps an overemphasis on nutrition as a cure or prevention. Antioxidants and other food products are
important as building blocks of cell maintenance but may times cell-mutation have
nothing to do with what we eat. Then
there is the inherited iniquity/sin (genetic connection) tied to sickness and
disease as it goes down the generation line.
We must see a critical dimension to give us insights beyond the protocol
being offered by science and doctors.
Is it
possible to prevent cancer? Which type
of cancer can we cure or prevent? Let us
look at the different kinds of cancer and talk about how cancer gets a
foothold.
Cancer is
not an accident! We can also talk about
genetic and environmental issues which contribute to abut 20 percent of
cancers. Henry Wright has been an enemy
of cancer for more than 30 years and he has seen many people healed. Even stage four terminal cancers that had
metastasized. Today these people are
well today leading normal lives.
Cancer In
Men and Women
The number
one type of cancer that kills men is lung cancer. The second leading cancer that kill men is
prostate cancer, followed by colon and rectal cancer, pancreatic, liver,
leukemia, esophageal, bladder, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and kidney cancer.
The number
one type of cancer that kills women is also lung cancer, followed by breast,
colon & rectum, pancreatic, ovary, leukemia, no-Hodgkin’s lymphoma,
uterine, liver, and cancer that affect the brain & nervous system. These statistics are from the American Cancer
Society.
There are
many people who talk about the cause of cancer, and most of their discussion
have to do with obesity, lack of exercise, and smoking. Surely, much of that has its bearing on
health. But we must bring forth a new
concept involving caner, and it includs more than just physical wellness. Be in Health Inc is dedicated to wholeness of
spirit, soul, and body. In their
understanding of the Spiritual Roots of Disease, they have discovered the
possible spiritual root issues behind more than 1,000 diseases affecting the
mind, emotions, and body.
In the issue
of cancer all three parts of our being need attention. We need to talk about our spirituality, our
personality, and of course our physiology. Is it possible that the body is a
responder to our thoughts?
The
Mind-Bosy Connection
The study of
the mind-body connection is a well-known science. The field of psychoneuroimmunology studies
the effects of the mind over the central nervous system and the immune system. One of the scriptures that come to mind is in
the book of Isaiah. It says that God’s
people went into captivity because they had no knowledge, Isaiah 5:13
Therefore my people have gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge;
Their honorable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.
The prophet
Hosea picks up the theme and says, my people are destroyed for lack of
knowledge. The second part of Hosea says
that the knowledge God’s people had, they did not even use, Hosea 4:6 My
people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being
priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will
forget your children.
We are
supposed to love God, His Word, and love our neighbors as ourselves, but does
that mean we do it?
Matthew
22:36-40 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” Jesus said to
him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your
soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love
your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two
commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
Jesus taught
us the foundation of the law and prophets.
It is that we love God, love ourselves, and love our neighbor (everyone
else). This has to do with the
understanding of the spirituality, pathology (science) and etiology (causes) of
cancer and how we prevent it, cure it, and heal it. It is very important to note that all
sicknesses and diseases have a root cause and it can be found in Deuteronomy
28:15-68. It is called disobedience, which is sin. Unfortunately, we as
believers go to doctors who only treat the symptoms. Not the causes that lead to the symptoms. Why are we going to doctors if they only
treat the symptoms and we remain ill?
There are
different types of tumors and they involve both cancerous and benign or
non-cancerous tumors. Both involved cell
mitosis or rapid cell multiplication.
Cancer is invasive and it enlarges and destroys good tissue that is
needed for your survival. Cancer kills
because it is invasive and it enlarges, destroys, and crowds out healthy
cells. It steals the life support needed
by the body.
Cancer
Coming Out of Conflict
Benign, or non-non-cancerous
localized fibroid tumors are really coming from a person’s conflict with
themselves from self-rejection. When you
find tumors that are cancerous, many times that comes out of conflict with
others. Also, cancers that are invasive can metastasize and appear in other
parts of the body. These two have one
thing in common and that is bitterness, which compromises the immune
system as it pertains to white T cells.
In the Bible it is called dry bones.
Meaning, the bone marrow where white T cells are produced to fight
immune diseases, Proverbs 17:22 A merry heart does good, like medicine, but
a broken spirit (bitterness, anger, unforgiveness) dries the bones (bone
marrow).
If you are
struggling with cancer, you have a compromised immune system. The macrophages
and killer cells of your immune system do not recognize the antigen marker on
the cancer cell identifying it as the enemy.
Not only is the immune system compromised, but the interleukin 1 and
interleukin 2 are compromised which inhibits your macrophages (White T Cells)
and killer cells from recognizing the antigen marker on the cancer cell.
The Need to
Identify the Enemy
God has
created your immune system to identify any antigen markers. Everything that comes into your body has a
marker. Your immune system is designed
to recognize the enemy– viruses, bacteria, cancer, or whatever sickness and
disease you are suffering with. A person
with a healthy immune system will not usually be prone to infections. People that are prone to infections and viral
attacks usually have a compromised immune system. Cancer is not from God. God is not trying to kill you. God is not
trying to teach you a lesson by giving you cancer.
Satan is the
one trying to kill you, John 10:7-10
Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the
door of the sheep. All who ever came
before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he
will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief does not
come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they
may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. Satan is our enemy and he has programmed
us with sin to get cancer in 80 percent of all cases. God’s perfect will is
not to heal you; His perfect will is that you do not get sick.
Your immune
system has been created with anti-oncogenes (tumor suppressors genes) which
protect your cells and cause your immune system to recognize any invaders and
destroy them. Many things can tamper
with or destroy them. Many things can
tamper with or destroy this part of your immune system, including radiation. Contained within each one of your cells is a
pair of anti-oncogenes. If that pair is
broken and you have only one anti-oncogene in your cell, then you are termed as
vulnerable or susceptible to cancer. If
both anti-oncogenes are destroyed or mutated, your cell is totally compromised
and totally vulnerable for mitosis (cell duplication) and tumor development.
For many
years, science believed that viruses caused cancer. Scientist changed their minds a few years ago
and now they say viruses do not cause cancer, but they like to show up where
body tissue is in trouble. God did not
create viruses. They can be considered a
genetic foreign life force.
Viruses have
intelligence and can be activated by thought and emotions. Emotional life conflicts can also trigger
genetic defects in the chromosomes of a person that can be responsible for
certain types of cancer developing. What
has been found in Be In Health ministry is that emotional and spiritual injury
including conflict and bitterness, as well as a broken heart and loss of a love
object can cause feelings of hopelessness and despair (depression) and trigger
the destruction of the protective enzymes in cells.
Toxicity
Healed by Forgiveness
There are
internal influences that can produce toxicity within the body, but there are
also external influences that that can produce toxicity such as smoking. Smoking brings carcinogens that can destroy
the anti-oncogenes, causing your cells to become compromised and there is
nothing to protect your cells from developing cancer. In addition, each
cigarette is a trauma/stressor to the body.
50 years of smoking two packs a day is 730,000 cigarettes. When you smoke, we are not taking care of
the body, the temple of the Holy Spirit.
Caring for ourselves spiritually and physically is taking care of the
temple.
Some toxins
are manufactured from within the human body.
The Bible talks about the “poisoned by bitterness” in Acts 8:23 For I
see that you are poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity (sin).
Time
Magazine had an article that mentioned the connection between forgiveness and
health; and unforgiveness, bitterness and the development of disease. A bitter person will develop toxicity, and
there will be a stiffening of the membrane of the cells that causes toxins to
be retained. This core of bitterness
releases a very lethal chemical in the body.
When combined with the stiffening of the membrane, this build-up
toxicity can be as lethal as any external chemical, including PCBs. Science tells us this chemical in the body is
cortisol which will be covered next
It would do
well for you to be kind to yourself and others because it many be good for your
health. In other words, do not beat up
on yourself and others, especially with what comes out of your mouth in the
form of anger and bitterness, James 3:10 Out of the same mouth proceed
blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so. Nobody is innocent of declared curses.
Immunity
Damaged by Fear
Another
factor surrounding cancer is damage to white blood cells which produce a
compromised immune system. Cortisol
damage to interleukin 2 will not allow your white corpuscles to recognize the
antigen marker on the invading tumor.
Cortisol is a very necessary chemical in soothing called the “fight or
flight” response, but it is very damaging and can be lethal if it is released
by the body like a dripping faucet. This
is called cortisol drip
If cortisol
drip is occurring in the body, it produces cell death in the white corpuscles,
the macrophages, and killer cells of your immune system.
This creates a compromised immune system.
When that happens and interleukin 2 is destroyed by cortisol, then your
immune system does not recognize cancer as an invader and cancer cells
multiply.
Stress and
anxiety, which is called fear in the bible, can release cortisol like a leaky
faucet, and science tells us cortisol can destroy the immune system. This type of fear comes about when a person
does not feel loved, and they are unable to give and receive love themselves
without fear. This fear comes out of
broken relationships, especially in the family.
If someone has not been kind to you or they abused you, this could cause
you to have fear which leads to anger, bitterness, and unforgiveness. Maybe you have experienced verbal, physical,
emotional, or sexual abuse family, spouses, or friends. Or maybe you have fallen into drivenness,
performance, and perfectionism to receive love.
That is a disease maker! It may
be that the only acceptance you ever had was if you did everything right. This is a disease maker!
Many cancers
are coming out of bitterness and rejection by others. If you have taken the wrongs of another
person into your mind, your soul, your personality, and your spirituality, it
is a disease maker. Why should you die
because of the sins of another towards you?
That is not a good exchange. Let
them go so that you may live. Henry
Wright has seen stage four terminal cancer disappear when somebody just forgave
another person of their trespasses. What
if you forgave another person, and God honored this and by His Spirit removed
the cancer form your body? Forgiveness
of people must be done over and over until the things they did to you do not
sting anymore. Every time the memory surfaces you forgive them out loud.
The Cure:
Reconciliation and Change
The begging
of all disease prevention and healing of cancer is to be reconciled to God your
Father through Jesus Christ, reconcile to yourself. This means whatever bitterness, anger, and
unforgiveness you have against others, yourself, or an organization (church,
political parties, employers, government, etc.) must be addressed. Again, we do this by forgiving others,
yourself organizations, each day as Satan brings it to your attention. Eventually,
these issues will minimize.
According to
Scriptures you are fearfully and wonderfully made, you are not a mistake, you
are engraved upon the palms of His hands, your name is written down in heaven,
and He calls you sons and daughters. He
has accepted you so you can love yourself.
In the area of reconciliation with others, God loves goofy, imperfect
people. The Lord did not come down from
heaven to save sinless people. God in
His love sent His only begotten son because God loved us. You must learn how to forgive others. This does not mean you condone their sin, but
rather, you understand that they do not know what they do. The most imports intercessory prayer ever
came from Jesus in Luke 23:34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for
they do not know what they do.” Based
on this scripture, we must understand that sin is a factor in people’s behavior
and they do not know what they are doing, so we must forgive them. It is not negotiable.
It is very
discouraging to try to help someone and you end up losing them in the battle
instead. It comes down understanding
that it really depends on them. It is
not on us or God. We must be prepared to
be changed. If we can never say “I want
to change,” then we will never change and we will continue to go to doctors and
remain sick and diseased. The work of
the Holy Spirit is to allow us to be convicted and be able to change our
spirituality and our personality. Then
our bodies physically, mentally, and emotionally will be responders to healing
of cancer and any other sickness and disease.
