Life » Nobody living to himself
There is not one of us whose life concerns himself alone, and not one of us whose death concerns himself alone; For, if we live, our life is for the Master, and, if we die, our death is for the Master. Whether, then, we live or die we belong to the Master.
Thankfulness » Should be offered » For the supply of our bodily needs

He, again, who eats meat eats it to the Master's honor, for he gives thanks to God; while he who abstains from it abstains from it to the Master's honor, and also gives thanks to God. There is not one of us whose life concerns himself alone, and not one of us whose death concerns himself alone;
and they discourage marriage and enjoin abstinence from certain kinds of food; though God created these foods to be enjoyed thankfully by those who hold the Faith and have attained a full knowledge of the Truth. Everything created by God is good, and there in nothing that need be rejected--provided only that it is received thankfully;
