So-called faith healers must feel pretty dumb when they get sick, go to the doctor, and get medicine from the pharmacy. What's up with these faith healers getting sick?

When a faith healer "fails" to heal a person, they just explain it away that it was the "will of the Lord" that the person should remain sick or die. Basically, for a faith healer, whatever happens to anyone at any time represents the mythical and mysterious "will of God". If the faith healer blesses someone and they recover, then God has heard their prayers and caused their recovery. If they don't recover, it's because "God has a plan". Either way, it's really convenient for the faith healers because they never have to face accountability.

The way spiritual healers work is by means of energy manipulation. They can "see" into a person's body or rather, visualize where the problem is as being a black mass which they siphon out kinda like psychic vampirism only not and very precise. Usually a healer that knows enough about what they are doing will take that energy they sucked into themselves and put it in a tree or something.

Even faith healers need to call on God for guidance and help. They are also human, they do not do the healing, God does. They get sick just like anyone else, and they know to call on God for deliverance from their illnesses.
Your question is so stupid, why not ask, Whats up with doctors getting ill? Boy you must have flunked kindergarten

They soak up the negative energies and illness energies from the people they heal. They sacrifice a part of themself, put a piece of that sickness in themselves, to take it away from another. There are real healers out there, you seem a bit cynical about the subject. Research reiki. Or empaths. I soak up the negative- I can't help it. It's all got to do with energy.

Understand faith "healers." You can't get healed unless you get sick.
Our bodies are not immortal. Eventually, they will break down and the heart quits. Faith will not work when your last breath is used.

God heals the sick. He for his own reasons uses people to work thru. And they are people just like us. President Jimmy Carter's sister was a faith healer and she died of cancer.
Faith healing works because it worked on me.

God send rain upon the righeous and unrighteous. Matthew 5:45
If only Atheisits got sick and Christians didn't, then all atheists would serve and worship God jsut so they wouldn't get sick. This way - they do it because they honestly and truly love God and not because they Have to. God wants us to love Him by choice.
This why He gave us Free Will
