They said someone with a bad hip was getting healed. If they are getting a word from God about healing, why doesn't God just tell them who He is healing and where and when? And what if there are 100 people who all have a bad hip but God is only healing 1 of them? What will the other 99 think?
Is it obvious that I am not exactly sold on Robertson and his tactics for keeping people tunned in? I believe God can and does heal, but he doesn't use this method but what do you think?

God heals through faith. Faith is the power. Robertson will tell you that you have to have the right word, the right religion and probably ask you to send some money. The truth is that God is universal love and that if a person connects to God in faith and Love then that person can connect with the healing energy of spirit no matter what the person's religion is.

I really understand ur point. There are millions of people watching and it is so rare that only one of them has a bad hip. But, don't take that too seriously not to sin against the spirit of God.

Word of knowledge can be used to build faith, or let somebody know that the heat, or presence they can feel is God trying to heal them.
Some evangilists drive me nuts because it doesn't seem genuine (I haven't seen the 700 club)
It could be more than one getting healed. Healing is there for all of us, nobody needs a word of knowledge (although it is nice and confirms God's work, but not needed)
COS by His stripes we are healed (ARE HEALED, not will be, may be, ARE.)
We need to claim it and fight for our promise with full expectation of recieving.

Most of these people know when God is touching them that moment. If the others are not feeling the touch of God, then there is no healing taking place for them.
The Holy Spirit manifestation (one of them) is the gifts of healings. The Spirit will usually work through those who have this gift.
God prefers to work through mankind to show His will and work.
He doesn't need to...just chooses to.

It could be more than one person, Ive heard testimonies of more than one person writing in to say they received healing from the same word spoken.

Tele-evangelicals are the lowest of life forms. Most become millionaires at the expense of the weaked willed, weaked minded, and least fortunate of the world.

Pat Robertson is no a Christian. His words and action of hatred are proof of that. His words directly contradict the words of Jesus Christ.

I think you don't have very much faith or comprehension of who God is.
He is the one who does the work, the believers have to receive to get it.
Who said it was one, it could have been any number maybe more than 100, maybe over a few thousand,

I believe it gets people thinking on Jesus Christ. And however he is preached His name is heard; that in itself makes people think on Him and just perhaps search out the truth, which is Jesus Christ, the Light, the truth and the way.
