You are a fine one to talk about foolishness, caww. Your post to me showed a lack of comprehension - and your silly comment about the hospitals, etc.

It was indeed laughable!! While you thought it was serious.

Thanks, Quix. Some think McArthur has the answers and not God’s Word. Yep, that’s laughable to me, also. McArthur may have the ‘letter’ but not the ‘Spirit of The Word’.

Do not make this thread "about" individual Freepers. That is also a form of "making it personal."

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

I suggest you don’t respond to a certain poster - too thin skinned.

What's silly about it?

In the book of Acts, the signs and wonders were for validating the message to unbelievers or showing the apostles that salvation was for the Samaritans, Gentiles, or any other group the Jews had initially excluded.

So, what's the issue over people going into hospitals to do the healings of those who are on their deathbeds, where they can be verified medically? What better testimony of the power of God to unbelievers to bring them to Him?

Jesus said, freely you have received, freely give.

So the faith healers who live high on the hog on the donations of their followers are no different than the the pope for how he lives.

Freely receive = freely give = going about doing good just as Jesus did, not expecting any recompense or attention. Let them go to hospitals and prove their gifting.
