“Disease Goes from Inside to Outside”
Medical Science Short Accounts


     Medical science explains that the origin of disease invades the physical body from the outside. We in World Messianity hold that the origin of disease is eliminated to the outside from inside the body. The two views are exactly opposite. Interestingly, these theories both match the corresponding opinions concerning human behavior. That is, the first view takes evil as attacking the human body externally, that is, the origin of sin is shifted to some place outside the affected person. The opposite way of thinking is that the evil in human beings comes from the mistakes made by their own mind and heart and puts the responsibility for sin back on the individual human being.
     When we observe what results from these two ways of looking at this issue, we see that the view which shifts sin to the other involves no spirit of self-sacrifice, envies others, curses society, and becomes a source of complaints, so the more the number of individuals who adhere to this way of thinking increases, the darker society becomes.
     On the other hand, the view that returns sin to the individual calls for significant self-sacrifice on the part of human beings, for individuals to forgive each other, for all members of society to get along, and for all things and matter to be interpreted favorably, so there results a warm society full of love.
     Please think and consider this distinction carefully. Where the intentions of our work lie can clearly be understood.
