What I do not understand is that... how does one get "diagnosed" with any disease in the first place?
I've seen numerous Christians over the years hear the doctor say "you have the whatever disease" and they choose to believe that, starts telling everyone that, start acting like they have it... and die.
I mean, God's Word expressly tells us that Jesus took our sickness and disease upon Himself which is a major, major promise!
How does one decide to not believe what God said and promised, and decide to go to the doctor for a checkup? That's the first mistake and demonstrates that a person doing this does not believe what God said about healing and instead wants to go be tested to see if they have anything... and of course they usually find something.
In that scenario, you could be just fine... but once you start seeking disease, it come on you because you opened the door to it. Why not rebel against hell and decide to be well?
I mean, why not believe what God said and eat good and exercise and put one's self in the hands of the Holy Spirit... Who, if allowed to LIVE in us will quicken, make alive, empower our bodies (His Body, if we have given it to Him) with His presence so we never get sick or come down with these diseases.
I know, I know... many Christians believe God uses doctors (maybe God can't handle disease?)
If God is leading people to use the arm of the flesh and the wisdom of mankind to keep well and He supposedly uses doctors... He sure is doing a very poor job of working thru doctors cause I keep hearing about Christians that go to doctors instead of believing God's promise of healing that Jesus has already paid for... die early!
Like, whassup with God supposedly telling folks to to the doctor and they die early from whatever disease they had???
Something is not right with that.
I know, it's probably just me... but I'll stick with the Holy Ghost since He is very well able to keep one from getting sick... if He cannot, there be some lies in the Bible. Either that, or God failed to control what went in to His Book and some folks put some lies up in there.
