Thread: Apostle David E Taylor raises woman from dead thru Facebook messenger

Went back and read the FB post from the OP again (I've read it several times now), and it doesn't specifically say the message was read out loud. But it doesn't say it wasn't and it doesn't say that it was or was not spoken aloud as it was texted.

I guess I just don't dismiss it because it may not be a detailed enough account.

Don't worry, Fuego likes to prove that people can't convince him about something based upon some nitpicky detail somewhere.

(not that I care, in this case)

I'm not saying I believe this particular story was a resurrection....just don't have enough evidence at this point


I was thinking of a possibility if I received a message someone had just died what would I do.
Send a text message declaring resurrection power and life and then tell the person to place their mobile on the deceased persons chest. But I would be praying that when they did that God would resurrect that person

I don't see how a text read out loud (the anointing healing word released into the atmosphere) any different than reading a bible verse aloud or say using a prayer cloth that's supposed to have a healing anointing prayed into it?

There is no difference. It just doesn't say.

I'm just scrutinizing because it was a dead-raising, and done by FB post. If somebody had said I walked into their room and commanded them to live, or someone put the phone to their ear and commanded them to live, or I sent a text and the text was read aloud, etc, etc, etc, I never would have even approached it like I did in the thread. :)

Well you have to understand I'm a teacher, and very analytical, and when something is relayed in such a way that could be in error, first I question it, and then I am concerned that someone will be taught wrong about ministering healing, etc. It's a mode I get in that protective of others that are reading it when it just doesn't compute in my mind from what I personally know about God and how he works.

Now, could/would God heal somebody because they made a FB post? I assume He could, but generally I would consider that an exception and not the 'rule'. Again, the teacher in me. :)

God gives us the desire of our hearts, especially when it's in His Will (Psalm 37:4, and 1 John 5:14) so really you could do this without even texting it! When our desires are in agreement with God's Will... it comes from the Holy Ghost. (this is with the understanding that it's God's will to heal people considering Jesus took infirmity upon His Body at Calvary... those that don't believe this may want to go watch porky pig er somethin )

We know it's God's will to counter the work of satan, so when the desire of someone's heart is to cry out to God (words on the inside in our thoughts and imagination that are in line with God's Will can be accepted by God the same as speaking out loud) for the deliverance of another person... God often arrives on the scene and dispenses justice to ol slewfoot and the destruction he wields.

I'd believe this before I'd believe gold dust, especially when cripple people are in the gold dust meeting and leave unchanged!

"Don't do it that way" is different to "It cannot happen that way". The latter limits God and he places no such limitation on himself in his Word. You are being overly critical. Be more positive.

So ........... an exception may have been made here. I don't see anyone trying to make it a rule.

The gospel of John says that Jesus did many more things that aren't recorded, how do we know they all fitted into rules that Fuego finds acceptable ?
