I have faith in God. I believe He works for us through a number of different ways. Other people, herbs, medicines, prayer. If He didn’t work through other people nobody would need to have a job, God would just do everything directly. But He doesn’t. He expects man to do up to what man can do, and then God will do what only God can do. For us in more advanced societies, with modern medical treatment abilities, and knowledge of natural compounds that help the body, he expects us to use that knowledge and resources available to us, so He can work through those ways and heal through other people and medicines and other natural herbs and such. He also goes beyond medicine and saves people and doctors have no understanding in some cases why someone survives. Sometimes the doctors come to God after what they see a patient go through, and hear their testimony.

I’m right there with you.

My original statement was don’t put all your faith in modern medicine.

Luke was a physician. But not a sorcerer.

Leaving (the one true)God out is where problems begin.
