Bible Note: Dear Scribe, don't misinterpret what I have said, I do believe in Devine healing, I just don't believe in, so called, devine healers! When someone isn't healed, at there shows, they blame it on the faith of the one that wasn't healed never on their actually not having the gift of healing, which evidently ended in the time of Paul. People have even been told to stop taking their medication, for serious problems that they have had, to show their faith is genuine and as a result have died. The, so-called healers have blamed the persons weak faith for the persons demise. I have seen the Lord heal people for his praise and glory and there was never a "healer" around. Yes I truly do believe in healing, but not the sideshow antics that are taking place at some gatherings where a believer's faith is questioned; where people are laid down on a stage like so much cordwood. Then to top it off people are duped out of there money for the furtherance of the sideshow, and the fancy lifestyle of the supposed healer. When the apostles had the gift of healing it was for the purpose of proof to their credentials, so that people would listen to their message about the saving work of Christ. They didn't do it for healings sake because sooner or later all that are healed will die of one thing or another and the same goes for the so called devine healers now days. If they have the gift of healing let see them go into the hospital and go room to room healing people then give a message of salvation to those standing by in amazement. When Isaiah talked of healing, it was from the sickness of sin and it's effects, and the results will go on forever, because the work of God's Son, Jesus Christ is a permanent work. Isaiah 53:5 (KJV) But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. This is what I have seen and heard and this what I know, CDBJ |
