Here is my reasoning: Until and unless one of these supposed "healers" restores an arm or leg or finger or ear or nose that has been torn away from another persons body, they are fake. They all do the same type charlatin, psychological minupliation, illusioinist stuff that David Blain or others can do. Wake up people! Give me a break!

I don't think it works like that. I am not much into people who claim they can lay hands upon you and heal. However, I do believe that part of healing comes from within yourself. Some people need to believe in the faith of healers. Healing comes in so many forms. To heal from losing a limb whould be acceptance and coping with your loss.

All healing is done by God. If you are in an accident and a doctor helps you he can only do so much, after that the rest is in God's hands. God expects us to use common sense and rely on medicine that he has given us. If you refuse a known treatment for a problem such as chemotherapy becuase it is strenuous to find some magic healing ability you are simply rejecting an opportunity God is giving you.

God could allow someone to heal in the way you speak, but why is it necessary if there are alternatives. Also, if God alone is the healer and there is no cure for an ailment, God would heal you if he so desired he would not see it necessary to use some mediator (such as with Hezekiah). The early church had healers (i.e. the apostles) to help establish the authority of Jesus. Once established faith and scripture alone with the Spirt were all that was needed.

If God gave someone the power to heal through Him, it would be a means for something greater most likely. For instance healing and then prophecy or healing and then preaching. God also has the abiltiy to take such gifts away, one's pride causes them to use such a gift for greed would be a reason.

Most so-called healers are probably fakes like you say. A real one would probably be obvious in an instant. Like you said restoring someone's ear like Jesus did with Malchus.

That is an interesting perspective from someone who has obviously not been healed before...I have been healed on three specific occasions when the minister spoke it out in a meeting or my friends prayed for me. My foot was run over by a car when I was 3 and at 35 I was having major problems walking because every bone in my foot was crushed when I was small. I prayed to Jesus for a few months because I could not walk to take care of my children or my home. After attending a church meeting, my foot was completely healed and I have not had any problems with it although doctors can not believe I am walking on it. I have seen other people healed of various ailments and some who were not healed. I don't have all the answers but know one of God's names is Jehovah Rapha - the one who heals! That is what Jesus came to do on this earth to show everyone about His Father - I am sure the lepers had things grow back. I have read about and heard many reports around the world of people being risen from the dead through prayer. Maybe you haven't looked in the right places...or don't want to?

I do basically no longer have confidence you, and all the non-public reviews interior the worldwide won't suffice as information. i did no longer have those reviews...

The healing process starts from within and has nothing to do with the physical self, initially. That's what doctors are for. It is proven scientifically prayer and other forms of religious/spiritual intercession can help the healing process for maladies such as cancer, etc. and have sustainable recession. But, again, I say the healing must start from within. Disease is a product of genes, environment, and psychological health. If the health problem is related to the psyche (negativism, hatred, etc.) and true change occurs in that person's attitude, healing can occur.

But, yes, most of those seen on TV are charlatans.

TRUE HEALERS,HEAL IN THE NAME OF JEUS CHRIST,NOT
ALL ARE TRUE HEALERS.
Lu:9:1: Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
Lu:9:2: And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
Lu:9:3: And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.
Lu:9:4: And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.
Lu:9:5: And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
Lu:9:6: And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.

Some healers heal and some are charlatains. A friend from Africa told me that he had been to festivals when a man's arm was cut off and was attached perfectly. He said westerners want to call it black magic because they don't understand it. He said that magic, healing, has been around since the beginning of time.

In the Bible ,Jesus healed the sick and even raised the dead. In Paul's words, as beleivers, we are able to do anything He did on this earth and more. Beleiving that Jesus is the Son of God, raised from the grave and is our Saviour, by the Grace of God makes believers, heirs and joint heirs,glorified together in the Kingdom of God, therefore being brothers and sisters to Jesus Christ.

The answer is: You are wrong! If Jesus is not in your life, you"re already dead. I am willing to help you find Jesus, He's waiting for you, He is the only one that can heal you. Then you can learn how to be alive in Christ.
Read Romans 8: 16a-17b 1 Chronicles 16:22
