I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW GOD HEALS THROUGH DOCTORS HOSPITALS NURSES AND MEDICINE TODAY.
HE HEALS THROUGH PRAYER AS WELL.BUT ANYONE SAYING MEDICINE USE IS A SIN IS DEAD WRONG.
AND THEY ARE ALWAYS ALWAYS UNBALANCED IN OTHER AREAS OF THEIR LIFE.
A GREAT BAPTIST PREACHER (DR.PETER S.RUCKMAN) I GREATLY ADMIRE SAID THEY HE AND THE ELDERS DID JAMES 5:14-15 THEY HAD 3 NOTABLE MIRACLES DONE.SEVERE CASES.MIRACULOUSLY HEALED IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST.
this was at the time of that recording.
AND HE WAS HONEST ENOUGH AS HE ALWAYS IS ...TO SAY IT DID NOT WORK IN 4 OTHER SEVERE CASES.
BUT THEY PRAYED AND DID JAMES 5:14-15.

How ashamed a Christian ought to be that he is trusting in the arm of flesh or in a medicine bottle somewhere around the house. You go home and gather up the abominable stuff and put it in the alley box and then apologize to the alley box.
You cannot tell me anything about medicine. There never was a bigger humbug practiced on mankind than the practice of medicine. The biggest men in the medical world have declared it over and over again, but the mob do not pay any attention to it.
Coll. 4:14, Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.
Matt. 9:12, But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
Mark 2:17, When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Luke 4:23, And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.
Luke 5:31, And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
Personally I all ways ask the Father in Jesus name for healing for myself and my family. I know then that I have done my bit and God will then do His. When He does this is up to Him and I believe we are healed, even before I ask.
John 14:13, And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
John 14:14, If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
We don't have Jesus walking about society healing people today. These days its all about getting to know Jesus, forming a relationship with Him and the Father and having faith in the promises they have made to those who believe in Him! Ask and believe its done even before its actually done, never wavering or doubting.
One of my children, a little girl, after years of sickness and suffering, being investigated by many doctors and specialists, and me asking God to heal her ended up in hospital. We were told it was not looking good for her. No one knew what was wrong. I went into the hospital chapel and prayed in tears, God heal my daughter please, if you do I will change, I will obey you, I will be baptised, and many other such pleadings.
When I returned to her room my wife said a visiting doctor she had never seen before examined our daughter and rushed her off to the operating room.
I know God sent him. She had a gangrenous ovarian cyst as large as a grown mans fist which was about to burst according to this doctor. She would have died that day. She now lives and has healthy children and grand children.
This experience alone tells me these days God uses physicians at times.
