    The health work, according to the testimonies, is the right arm of the message. The right arm should not be carried in a sling. In this, Christ is ur perfect example. Jesus spent more time healing the sick than preach­ing.

    The Health Department:

    1) Disseminates counsel, gives medical help, assists in the preparation of medical missionaries, and uses its opportunities to preach the gospel;

    2) Seeks individuals who can cooperate in the medical branch of evan­gelism in order to advance medical missions in the different lands and continents;

    5) Coordinates the efforts of doctors, naturopaths, nurses, aides, mas­seurs, physical therapists, nutritionists, chiropractors, dentists, social workers, and family counselors;
