Many Christians believe when infected with an incurable disease, such as cancer, that it is His wish and a part of the plan for the universe. Such ideas can be distressing when considering the loss of years of life, but comforting to the family that nothing can be done except to provide support for the final hours. The dying member should be aware that he or she will have a special place at His side and a potential spot in the magnificent choir of angels. Treatment should be kept at a minimum, for serious treatments can be seen as opposition to God's will and a lower placement in Heaven.

A disease is an condition where the body does not function correctly.

Diseases have often been believed to be a punishment from God, but in modern times, most diseases are explained through medicine. The disease is caused by the body being overwhelmed by toxic substances beyond its ability to eliminate them in a normal way. Toxic materials may accumulate from unexpelled body wastes that are generated as a part of metabolism or from external materials that are ingested and retained due to the body's inability to eliminate them. Disease also refers to bacterial and viral infections of the body.

The etymology of the word comes from the English dis-ease.
