In modern times, so-called "faith healing" is *NOT* the same as the miracles performed by Jesus and the apostles. For example, consider the long-term success rate of today's so-called "healings" and compare it with the success rates mentioned in the Bible.

(Luke 6:19) And all the crowd were seeking to touch him, because power was going out of him and HEALING THEM ALL. [caps added]

(Acts 5:16) The multitude from the cities around Jerusalem kept coming together, bearing sick people and those troubled with unclean spirits, and they would ONE AND ALL BE CURED. [caps added]


Jesus did not assign the Christian congregation to perform a physical healing work, but rather a global PREACHING work.

(Acts 1:8) You will receive power when the holy spirit arrives upon you, and you will be witnesses of me both in Jerusalem ... and to the most distant part of the earth.”

(Matthew 24:14) This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations

(Matthew 28:19) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations

It seems signficant that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are the ones best known for their worldwide preaching work. Clearly, it is Jehovah's Witnesses who prove themselves to be true Christians.

No one here got healed by Jesus, we weren't alive at the time. But people may have been healed by faith. The mind is a powerful thing, and if people believe God will heal them, sometimes it has a placebo effect.

Yes...

I broke my toe a few years back. After prayer for healing, I watched it become healed. Confirmed injury and healing with physician for doubters.

Jesus Christ is real and is the ONLY way to Heaven.

Jesus Christ replaced into appointed and sent by utilising the Almighty God to symbolize Him and initiate His plan for the salvation of receptive mankind. God in fact healed in elementary terms people who took pastime in Jesus and got here to him, with in elementary terms some exceptions to illustrate His skill, and for warning signs to examine Jesus' messianic authority interior the face of those rejecting him. The outstanding healing and warning signs replaced into the way God marketed His plan of salvation by using Jesus. Jesus replaced into the focal factor that God needed the attention of the international attracted to. healing unquestionably everybody on earth of that era could have probable defeated God's purpose in direction of spreading the reliable information of His promised Kingdom. And the human beings of that social gathering who did no longer understand approximately Jesus and his message, could have in elementary terms given credit to their very own gods for the outstanding healing.

There very well might be people here who visited a Dr. Jesus in Spain or a Spanish-speaking country when many Jesuses are found and he made them well. Jesus heals.

Faith seems to make people behave like idiots. Religious people pray to fence poles and cheese sandwiches.

People say they talk to aliens, people say they talk to God. The first lot are called nutters, the second lot are called religious. There's a lot of money to be made out of religion and it has become a well rehearsed play over time. Religious people also pray (talk) to fence poles and cheese sandwiches.

For far too long we have been inundated with religious preachers knocking on doors, screaming on street corners, babbling in church, and worst of all, using TV to ram their beliefs down our throats and those of our children. Prophets or profits? I think the answer is obvious. Hands raised upwards, then into the pockets, let’s give money money money.

A little old lady comes on stage, push her forehead, she falls over and low and behold, she’s cured of her mental and physical woes. Hands raised again, yep you’re on to it, let’s give more money money money. Check out the preachers shiny white teeth as they count their gold.

Here’s the truth. Sam has a lunatic in his head, crippled legs, done his bit for the country, but Sam manages to come on stage smiling, gets pushed over, falls flat on his rear end and he’s still got a lunatic in his head, and he’s still a cripple. Guess what, no money money money. That’s the real truth. All of the magic cures are just fake stage plays, and they do it for money, money, money.


Christians are below average intelligence and tend to be very gullible, that's why when a fence pole or a cheese sandwich has an imprint that looks like a religious face, such as God or Our Lady, millions will flock to the spot and worship. It's also known as sheep to the slaughter syndrome.

All religions are just fantasy or mythology or cults, call it whatever you wish. The main religions also have magic tricks which are called miracles in Christianity.

Just watch what happens when a magic trick occurs, for example, the fence pole or cheese sandwich image starts to weep. Just watch how the flock of followers behave. People find it hard to accept reality so escape into fantasy and that’s what religion satisfies. Miracles are all in the mind and are nothing more than trickery.

freedom,
I did. I couldn't breathe out of one side of my nose. And my barbar, who helped to bring the Lord to me laid hands on my nose. Now, even when I'm sick I can usually breathe out of the right side.

I'm a Protestant and Jess( the Barber) was an Ex-Catholic, Protestant.
