All information found in the Healing Section of this web site is of a spiritual nature and is designed to explain our doctrine on Healing.  A major focus of this doctrine establishes two facts:

1] None in the ministry of the Intercontinental Church of God and/or the Garner Ted Armstrong Evangelistic Association are health practitioners and offer no medical advice of any kind.

2]  All members and even the public viewing this site and/or Healing Section are most strongly encouraged to seek the best medical advice and the best medical help they can.

Though this site speaks of foods as mentioned in the Bible, this information is by no means medical or dietary advice.  Even in matters of diet, all members and all public are to consult with the best medical providers and the best secular information they can find on the subject.  No diet, to including fasting, is to be put into practice without the member or public getting the best medical advice and consultation available.  Members and public are encouraged to consult your physician or your local health care provider to obtain professional medical advice regarding anything to do with health, diet, foods, procedures, fasting, medicines, supplements, vitamins, minerals, treatments, hospitals, doctors, medical professionals, health providers or diseases.

In our Bible Class and Specific Studies, we have a Bible study on Bible Foods.  This study presents a number of foods found in the Bible and provides general nutritional information about those foods found from secular sources.  This information is offered only to give essential information about those foods that stand as common knowledge.  Nothing of this study on Bible foods is to be taken as medical or dietary advice.  Each person reading this study has to make up their own minds about the value of the information as it might relate to diet or health.  We encourage each person to consult with medical and dietary experts about every food they might include in their diet.  Neither this church nor its ministry has any biblical or moral mandate to do this.

This site has a section, "Unleavened Bread Recipes ...for the Days of Unleavened Bread.  The recipes given in this section are for the member's or visitor's  information and to aid them in their own research and decision-making as it relates to unleavened food dishes during the Days of Unleavened Bread.  There is no church, doctrinal or spiritual requirement they be used for the Days of Unleavened Bread.  They are not posted on the site with any specific or implied message or directive to health, nutrition or diet.  The member or visitor must make their own decisions regarding every ingredient of every recipe on the site. 

In this recipe section there are some links provided to identify leavening agents.  This is the only reason for their posting.  Nothing at those sites dealing with recipes, foods, nutrition, disease or health are to be considered in any way.  It is not to be implied that we sent the member or visitor to these sites for the purpose of using or even referring to anything there dealing with recipes, foods, nutrition, disease or health.

Nothing found in the EA, Church or Gateway sites is intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease save any statement of scripture that may speak to these things.

This disclaimer and our general disclaimers [EA and Church] apply to all sites [EA, Church, Gateway] of the Intercontinental Church of God and the Garner Ted Armstrong Evangelistic Association.
