I am so amazed at how people are so willing to ignore false teaching when they want, or stand, to get something out of it.

False teachers, by definition, have false followers.

What makes you think your not a false teacher??. You are the one who is arguing with God.

It's Clear Brother
The Faith Is In The One Who Prays


And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour. Matthew 8:13

What~!

And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: 1 John 5:14

You Thought Grandmother's Prayers Fell On Deaf Ears?

Well said Joe!  Even so, oh the mysterious ways God works!  Who can claim they have faith, but those whom God gives faith?  Ephesian 2:8-9  For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

Alan Hales -

your idea of Gods prosperity assurance for us is not sound. God never promised us great wealth or riches. His promises were that we would have all we needed, not to go hungry, or be homeless, naked, or poor. God did not intend for especially his workers, to be financially exaulted. If your theory was correct then Apostle Paul who did more works, labored abundantly, than any other apostle, should have been vastly wealthy. Would you dare say that Benny Hinn who has a great deal of personal wealth has forwarded the kingdom of God more than Apostle Paul? I think not. 

 

Algot -

thank you for your previous comments, but if you look at Paul and Timothy's situations; Paul was not physically ill, his faith was overwhelmingly abundant (as for the few people that they say were left unhealed by the apostle, this can not be shown to be true that they were not made well later on); as for Timothy and his stomach issues it would seem pretty clear that Paul advised him to drink wine for a couple reasons, he could have easily been healed but drinking water which may have been dirty or contaminated constantly, would cause recurring stomach problems, drinking wine would eliminate drinking the contaminated water as much and some alcohol wouldn't hurt. These are very logical assumptions to make instead of people theorizing that any apostle lacked enough faith.

#1 lack of confidence #2 there are laws that could put that person in penalty, they could potentially be sued by the hospital or by patients #3 unbelief/doubt

I'll Know On March The 29th
The Trouble Is An Abdominal Aorta Aneurism
And The (Probable) Need For An Aorta Crossover To Pipe Blood Between My Legs

This Would Of Been Over The First Week In January
But After A December Ten Day Stay In Hospital
To NOT Clear Up A Vicious Leg Infection

It Took An Infectious Disease Expert (And Prayer)

I'm Praying And Rejoicing In Elgin
I Am Blessed

No one is going to sue you for healing them. However, you could be exposed as a fraud.  I think the latter is what I believe.

Oh, to the earlier comment, haha. 

Well what if someone isnt healed? What if you expose someone with a weak immune system to something? Or come in contact with someone and carry it to another patient? There are many possibilities. But I have asked this question to people before and these are the answers I have gotten. I have recently been around miracles, I think it would take a lot more confidence to pray for someone in a hospital who you have to go to, rather than someone who comes to you. 

Something interesting I have been studying and developing is a theory I have not come across anywhere in my research. This would be that faith is not the key, the key is a total lack of doubt. The best prayers are the ones that aren't thought about, just on the fly. For me walking into a place that is full of sick people would bring an intial amount of doubt for sure, rather than in a home or a church.
