Money is More Dangerous than Corona-Viruses

The brain part shares only 2% of the whole body in terms of weight, but it consumes 20% of all the amount of oxygen consumed in the whole body.

If the bloodstream in the brain is stopped for 10 seconds or more, a man would lose one's senses, falling unconscious.  And, if the blood flow in the brain is stopped for more than 3 minutes, one dies; even if one survives such a fatal state, he would have to suffer the severe aftereffects.  This symptomatic state is called brain damage due to hypoxia (hypoxia is defined by reduced level of tissue oxygenation).  The corona-viruses are said to cause hypoxia.

If the bloodstream is accelerated in the body due to development of fever, blood passing the lungs is also accelerated so that sufficient oxygen cannot be taken into blood through capillary vessel in the lungs. 

Even without water, one can live 4 to 5 days.  Without foods, one can survive for 2 to 3 weeks with water and sleep.  But without oxygen, one lives only 3 to 4 minutes.  And the corona-viruses pose a critical danger to men in terms of survival conditions related to oxygen.

In other words, the brain dies due to a lack of oxygen even if other parts of the body are alive and functioning well.  And when the brain dies, a man dies, since autonomous nerves are controlled by the brain and control work of the body. 

However, what if the soul of a man dies due to a lack of something like oxygen, water, and foods?  That something for the soul must be love of the God.  Without love of the God, the soul should die instantaneously, and then the mind dies subsequently if the brain continues to function.

Even a human baby grows, receiving love from its mother.  A man to whom provision of love from the God is stopped cannot live.  His soul should die, and then his mind dies, resulting in meaningless living.

Oxygen must be provided to the brain within an interval of 3 minutes for the mind to live and continue functioning.  But love from the God must be provided to one's soul without cease for his mind to live and continue functioning well although his mind might not realize it. 

Satan and devils try to suffocate one's spirit by cutting this flow of love from the God.  Under influence of Satan and devils, men's souls stop functioning well and become dark; their minds would lose control, pursuing satisfaction of their desire; and finally men would be brainwashed by Satan that uses money to brainwash the men.

In this context, there is something more dangerous than corona-viruses around us: money.  It is so, since money hinders the flow of love from the God to our soul, mind, and body.  And, if we cannot get rid of this brainwashing by Satan with money, our soul would die and our hope to enter into Heaven should disappear. 

If you die due to infection by viruses, you may still enter into Heaven, provided that you are poor and pious.  But if your soul die due to your desire for money behind which Satan is, you should not be allowed to enter Heaven.  Money is more dangerous than corona-viruses. 

So, Christ Jesus said to love the God more than money, without mentioning corona-viruses.

John 2, King James Version
18 Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.

The Crucial Way to be Free from Corona-Viruses

One day, I read the Bible and went out to a city.  Then I felt that someone looking like infected with viruses walking toward me as if he had been evilly disposed.  So, I kept socially distance cautiously to pass by him.

Reading the Bible would enhance the ability to avoid infection.  And, as the state of the mind or the soul has an influence on the body, if one has faith, his physical conditions, including immunity against viruses, should be strengthened. 

Indeed, since the era of Columbus, many Christian missionaries went out to various regions in the world where hidden agents of the disease were waiting for them.  But, most of them were not taken with illness.  If Christian missionaries had easily succumbed to illness, local people would not have trusted in them and believed in what they preached.

The Bible reads, as follows, on Christ Jesus sending His disciples to the world:

Luke 9:
Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

It is also said that such disciples would not be harmed if they took in poisons.

Put simply, to defeat the corona-pandemic, everybody should be disciples and followers of Christ Jesus to enhance the level of its soul and mind work and thus improve physical conditions.

Reading the Bible with the intention to save the world, one's community, one's family and friends, and oneself in a manner as if one became a faithful follower of Christ Jesus should be useful, effective and crucial for one to be free from the corona-viruses.

Luke 2  King James Version
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
