Telling people that their state of health is due to sin in their lives. I'm really not following you and am not sure I can, so...
As a rhetorical question, with regards to "their state of health" what specific examples did I refer to and why?
Fwiw, I spend my evenings in a full time care/assisted living facility, memory care unit, etc. and by the end of the evening I'm ready for a break and a return to "normalcy", so to speak. Cheers!

The rain falls on the just and unjust. Diseases entered the world through Adam & Eve's disobedience to GOD. Thus the world as a whole and every living thing within it has fallen under that curse. I've seen good persons who try to live in GOD's Word get hit with very severe illness. I've seen some who could care less about Him and prosper. In short I see no connection. Some behaviors we know will contribute to cancer such as smoking. Then again I've seen chain smokers live into their 80's.
GOD appoints our time to be born and die. He has domain over sickness and health. The why's, how comes, and hows may not be understood this side of our lives. Afflictions can also be used as tempering of our spirit and character. We also have to remember Job. What did Job do to deserve what was allowed to happen to him? What was GOD's response to his accusers? :>}
