Considering that:
“God is the owner of the whole man. Soul, body, and spirit are his. God gave his only begotten Son for the body as well as the soul, and our entire life belongs to God, to be consecrated to his service, that through the exercise of every faculty he has given, we may glorify him.
The Youth’s Instructor, September 7, 1893. HL 9.1

The Review and Herald, June 18, 1895. HL 10.2

Gospel Workers, 175. HL 10.3 –?
Well, it is all because:
“The obligation we owe to God in presenting to him clean, pure, healthy bodies is not comprehended.”!!
Unpublished Testimonies, May 19, 1897. HL 11.2
