Hi Stu:You ask:Quote ++”I will advise whoever will listen to exercise faith in God's Word for a healing by sharing with them the scripture that I shared with you, but no, I will never advise someone not to take their medication or to stop a treatment like chemotherapy.

Hi Stu:You say:Quote I hope you never tell an insulin-dependent diabetic to give up insulin.  They will get very sick within days.  This is the side of televangelism you never see – the apparent miracles are all stage illusion. And you say:Quote I certainly understand your decision regarding your own medication, but I think the fact that you h…[Read more]

Hi Stu:You say:Quote You actually don’t know the first thing about Jesus as a man, except on the contradictory and very coloured accounts of the writers of the gospels.  It is not Jesus who immunises you against clear thinking, but the whole machinery of the christian church since then.My knowledge of Jesus as a man comes through a personal re…[Read more]

Hi Stu:Quote ++” I also mentioned that many have personal testimonies of physical healings, I believe that these are verifiable facts. I don’t believe a single account of faith healing.  All proper studies of such things demonstrate that faith and prayer have an effect equivalent to a placebo.  I do, however reserve a particular dislike for those…[Read more]
