clear brain. But what care we for your judgment if<br />

your brain nerve power has been taxed to the<br />

utmost, and the vitality withdrawn from the brain<br />

to take care of the improper food placed in your<br />

stomachs, or of an enormous quantity of even<br />

healthful food? What care we for the judgment of<br />

such pers<strong>on</strong>s? They see through a mass of<br />

undigested food. Therefore your course of living<br />

affects us. It is impossible for you to pursue any<br />

wr<strong>on</strong>g course without causing others to suffer.<br />

The Christian Race<br />

“Know ye not that they which run in a race run<br />

all, but <strong>on</strong>e receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may<br />

obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery<br />

is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain<br />

a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I<br />

therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not<br />

as <strong>on</strong>e that beateth the air: but I keep under my<br />

body, and bring it into subjecti<strong>on</strong>: lest that by any<br />

means, when I have preached to others, I myself<br />

should be a castaway.” 1 Corinthians 9:24-27.<br />
