I heard him give a talk the other day and he mentioned this and I was like, man, this is a perfect analogy to explain this to people.

Especially when you're talking to believers.

We know that this body that we have has been loaned to us.

This was a gift.

It's a temporary holding place for our soul until we go to heaven.

If you think about how we treat our vehicles, right, that we own versus ones that we rent.

When we own a vehicle, right, there's like Happy Meal remnants.

It's disgusting.

There's like slime wiped on the walls, stickers that our kids put on there.

It hasn't been vacuumed in months.

And there's dings on the outside, paint chipping.

It's like, whatever, the speakers are blown.

And then you rent a car because we're on a fancy vacation.

It's like, oh my gosh, we're so meticulous.

I got to make sure the gas is right.

Is there a scratch anywhere?

Is there a crumb anywhere?

It's like we treat the rented vehicle better than the body that we have every day that we're also renting from God himself.

Do you think that the current health care system is actually designed to keep people healthy or is it just managing disease?

So many people say, you know, I've never had my blood work done or I had it done a long time ago, but you know what?
