If God does not heal, why pray before you go to the doctor?

We can "doctor shop" the Internet and prove anything. But in my personal experience school shootings are far more frequent than when I began school in the 50s.

Armed teachers are a negative role model. Showing that violence is acceptable. Not good for Christian kids.

If you separate the school shootings from the other mass killings, they are becoming common.

This shows that school shootings are becoming common.
If you think mass shootings are becoming more frequent, and worse — you're right

I believe the thread is wrong drawing that conclusion.

Everything entropies. If it is bad now, it will be worse tomorrow unless laws change to keep step with technology.

Just sayin', I believe we are reaching a point where it might exceed that.

We should begin a new thread on Divine Healing. But my basic position is that Isaiah includes it in the atonement. James tells us to pray for healing. And numerous people have experienced it apart from medicine. And I have not had a do…

I wondered why you asked me that question. But I think it is wrong to judge some on the merits of others. And to persecute all Jews because of the Talmud. But if their works match those called for in the Talmud, I can fully understand …

I'm sorry, but one a week or so is nothing like the zip-gun thugs of the 50s popping a kid in the stomach.

There is no just basis for God to save/heal (same word) anyone apart from Christ justifying them.

Do you think I support people being punished for the sins of others? Because I show it happens.

I believe the only basis for salvation or healing is in Christ's atonement. If God saved or healed anyone apart from this, Christ died unnecessarily. Perhaps a new thread would open things up more.

I think that is true in many situations.

I don't recall taking the subject off topic. But recall responding to you in good faith as you presented your ideas.

We are way off topic. But since it's my thread I do not mind. but I'm showing that faith healing should become a normal Christian experience again. Mainly in reply to your comment: "Oh no, don't tell me you are one of these that uses t…

“Is anyone among you ill? He should summon the elders of the church, and they should pray for him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick and the Lord will raise him up—and…

I agree. But I think at the bottom of it all is the physical, and not the spiritual understanding of the Kingdom of God held by all religions that pit them against each other in war, that stands out to me.

Do you pray before going to the doctor?

You can use the word interchangeably in the salvation or healing passages. They mean the same thing. “But he was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: The chastisement of our peace was upon him; And with hi…
