Faith Healers

Does anyone actually have the power to heal others and/or raise people from the dead?

Yes, doctors do.

Oh you mean the charlatans who claim they can heal people with their mind? No.

Because I believe we are who we are I believe anything is posibble. As part of the universal consciousness we are capable of anything we set our MIND on.

Do Faith Healers Heal ,,,, a good question .

It is not simple to define such a thing because if Faith Healing is real then why isn't everyone Healing by it ? .

Energy in it's defined realism and Energy in it's not so defined realism is a factor in all Healings . Of course we may agree that Faith Healing a runny nose may be in a different Energy-type capacity then Faith Healing a fractured spine .
Faith Healing does happen as we see it all the time on TV with Benny Hinn etc.

To define 'True' Healing be it by Faith or by the Spaghetti Monster , energy and energy manifestation play a major role in the levels of the Healings .
For example,,, Healing a runny nose and Healing a fractured spine are certainly different ,as l call the runny nose "Low Profile Healing" and Healing a fractued spine or coma etc as , "High Profile Healing".

However there are more Energies Man has no knowledge of today and these Energies are what God is controlling , in the High Profile Healing capacity . And God is stopping Man from getting the answers to define "High Profile Healing " as Man's quest goes forward in search for the Truth .

This question has to be defined

For example I see the use of "dead" in the Bible being used to describe "us here that believe we are seperate from God"

If we are spiritual being created in the image of God then how can there be death ? God is LIFE


This then makes the saying let the dead bury the dead perfectly understandable

It also defines what jesus meant by raising the dead - the raising of conseousness from "dead thinking" to God thinking

Same can be said about healing the blind etc etc etc

Giving someone sight or them being described as blind does not necessarily mean we were talking our eye sight

Hi Tonyamendola .

When you posted ,,

---> " This then makes the saying let the dead bury the dead perfectly understandable ' .<---
=============================

Does that mean the 'living dead' are the people who do not accept the Lord,,, and those 'dead' [but really alive lol] people get to bury the dead ,, So most of the dead people are working for Graveyards burying the dead ,,yes ?

There is I believe some kind of energy that is in all of us that can accomplish things but we are only dimly aware of it and it has yet to be say demonstrated in a laboratory..but apparently there some medical records that seem to suggest healings can occur.

As far as raising people from the dead... You have some people who return from "clinical" death but I think when the Bible say talks about people being raised from the dead it is more often meant in a spiritual sense.

Yes and yes. I was convinced of this after reading Autobiography of a Yogi.

hi pinski

You stated ,,,

" I do not believe that in the past, or present, or future time was, is, or will be possible to bring a biological form from the dead back to life. It has never happened, it doesn't happen and it never will be.

================================================== ==

pinski when you say that do you include Jesus also ?
