Thread Name: BS: 'Christianized' medicine
Subject: RE: BS: 'Christianized' medicine
Jesus said --If they're not against us, they're for us (paraphrasing). He also said -- the sick need a physician--. Nowhere does the Bible suggest that doctors are to be avoided. Some churches seem to preach that modern medicine is bad, so that they can get us to give up on it, and give the savings to the church. This idea is clearly an evil, and should be avoided.
   However, miracle healings can and do happen. I have personally experienced them, and seen others experience them. The problem, of course, is how to get one when you need one. I am not jesting here. My wife has been fighting cancer for a while now, and we are using medicine as well as the best efforts of Christians who believe in Divine healing. So far, the doctors and the pastors are on the same side! Pray for us.
