Uses of Sulfur Powder

Sulfur powder is used as an active ingredient in many of the skin creams and lotions. It is also used for waste water processing, mineral extraction, manufacture of agrichemicals, fungicides and dyes. Burning sulfur powder is used to bleach paper and for dried fruits preservation.

Medicinal Uses of Sulfur
Sulfur is used in many of the skin treatment ointments, bar soaps, lotions and creams as it is extremely beneficial in the treatment of acne. It is also used as a treatment ingredient for the cure of other skin related disorders like scabies, seborrheic dermatitis, warts, acne vulgaris, rosacea, pityriasis versicolor and dandruff. This is due to the antifungal, antibacterial and keratolytic properties of sulfur. A combination of sulfur and alcohol works wonderfully in the treatment of acne and for tackling oily skin problems. Sulfur solution can also be used to speed up the process of wound healing and was widely used for this purpose during the Trojan wars. Sulfur can also be used to treat piles and is used in homeopathy to treat hypothyroidism and arthritis.

Uses of Sulfur in the Body
Sulfur is extremely essential in the normal functioning of the human body. It is not produced by the human body but needs to be obtained from food sources and in cases of extreme deficiency; it should be obtained by dietary supplementation. Sulfur makes up around 0.25% of the human body weight and is an essential part of all living cells. It is regarded as a nutrient, rather than an element when it comes to the uses of sulfur in the human body. It is essential in the prevention of many disorders and hence, should be necessarily obtained from food or supplementation.

@Cardinal, yeah... who knew  :thumbsup: :icon_king:

@ Micah - thanks for sharing on Theion! Hmm God is figuratively a magistrate? Well a righteous judge nonetheless and not a torturer.


I'm not exactly sure if the literal chemical components, even the "flames" will be involved though unless they are spiritual chemicals designed for Ressurection bodies to be corrected and tested... Hmmm




Oh well, these statements aren't to be taken literally either, but rather spiritually:

Isaiah 30:33 (New International Version, ©2010)


33 Topheth has long been prepared;
   it has been made ready for the king.
Its fire pit has been made deep and wide,
   with an abundance of fire and wood;
the breath of the LORD,
   like a stream of burning sulfur,
   sets it ablaze.

Jeremiah 5:14 (New International Version, ©2010)

14 Therefore this is what the LORD God Almighty says:

   "Because the people have spoken these words,
   I will make my words in your mouth a fire
   and these people the wood it consumes.
