In the medical field it is a fact that a cure for a virus has never been found, never.
A virus is the only known organism that needs a higher life form to replicate.
And that higher life form is Humans.
A virus has never been healed with just prayer either. Just check the medical world for proof.
This person either did not have Aids or the story is not true, and just recently on the news they had a program that proved that prayer does not heal any better than modern medicine.
Why do you think that God gave the world doctors and people who study germs? So we could be healed. Why give us doctors or lab people if all you had to do was pray? Pretty lame idea. All prayer does is make the people doing it feel useful which to some people isn't a bad thing.

I neither believe it nor dismiss it based on the information provided. It's unanswered. I've seen some pretty strange things in my life, a healer wouldn't even register on the radar of strange things I've seen. But I haven't seen someone with a consistient healing record. (A few one time deals that were pretty amazing, but no one that could do it on command.) That doesn't mean it isn't out there, but I wouldn't use a yahoo answer as proof one way or the other.

I believe that God can heal and He can heal whomever He choses. Sometimes God will heal a person so that He will give testimony of what God is capable of doing in the life of a sinner. Since I don't know this person personally, I can not say whether this persons testimony is sincere.
I do know however that God doesn't tend to use others to heal others with the exception of doctors so Chris Brown is treading on thin ice with the Lord.
You do need to understand though that while not everyone who has AIDs got it by a sexual or homosexual life style but AIDs is a consequence of the sin of improper sex outside of the marriage.

1. Medicine is not yet a true science, it is an art - that's why doctors are still said to "practice medicine", therefore it may be a simple case of misdiagnosis, switched results etc, etc.
2. It is somewhat disturbing to hear people put every aspect of their lives in some reference to god. Can't you do anything for yourself? Are you not able to tie your own shoe-laces or does god have to do that for you? Can you feed the dog, or does god have to rip open the bag too?
3. Working in the psych field as I do, I find it amusing and somewhat disturbing that people that say they hear the voice of god talking to them are given television shows in order to commit large scale robbery - but saying that you hear the voice of the devil gets you put in a padded cell.

I don't know whether that story is true or not. What I do believe is that there are charlatans out there looking to make a buck, who are embarrassing Christians and scaring off potential Christians.

I believe that God does use people to pray for us and through prayer we can be healed. I don't necessarily believe everything that this man wrote but i cant disprove it either. I would have to witness it first hand to say either way

if he were true,why aren't there names of people and ways to contact the ones he has healed?i mean there should be no problem verifying something if its true,right?
hmmm i wonder how much money the "healed" people shelled out,and if they didn't,I'm sure there was some sort
of price.

Religion....ALL of them are bad! Their purpose today is to gain control over the masses, for the purpose of extorting the wealth!
Probably the WORST two are christianity and muzzianity

I dont believe because I had a friend that went to a spiritual healer who was a chrisitan and wanted to be healed from cancer. he did his thing and then told her to go to the doctor and it would be proved that she was healed from her cancer...well the exact opposite was true. she went in and it had advanced to stage 4--the worst and she died a month later. I hold no faith in these types of people.

My mouth is on the floor. What a crock. This is coming from a mildly religious guy too.
