God has NOT withheld the Cures

[kwikphilly]

Nobody is mad at you Lady,least of all Hippie......I'm sorry,can you show me where the OP said God curses anyone for taking medication,I cannot seem to find that

She is not completely off here,I certainly understand where she is going with her comments about defilement ,,,,,,I believe God Provided everything we could ever need on this earth to remedy anything of this earth,we just don't always know what it is PLUS we have defiled this planet so badly that it is full of poisons ,toxins etc.... THis is why I mentioned "The Makers Diet",Dr Jordan Rubin gets into that with much detail.

 THis is her view,she just may not feel very welcome to respond further with calling her post "nutty",she is my concern because she is most welcome to state her opinion.......As we all are without mocking anyones comments                                          With love-in Christ,Kwik

The problem isn't telling someone that something is not biblical:

" “You have heard that the ancients were told, ‘YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER’ and ‘Whoever commits murder shall be liable to the court.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell. Therefore if you are presenting your offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, eave your offering there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your offering. Make friends quickly with your opponent at law while you are with him on the way, so that your opponent may not hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison. Truly I say to you, you will not come out of there until you have paid up the last cent."" (Matthew 5:21-26, NASB, emphasis mine)

The problem is in the spirit of calling someone's post "nuts".

I am not defending nor advocating that anyone should refrain from taking medications or that they should not vaccinate; I've seen on many occasions what happens when people do not and the ramifications of bad health decisions. I have also seen the abuse of medicine by both pharmaceutical corporations as well as the effects of "over-medication" by physicians and medical facilities. There does need to be a balance, with medicine used when appropriately and not for every single issue imaginable.

But with that said, the problem here is the spirit of calling someone's post "nuts" and the implications of making such a statement. It infers that the person whom the statement is being made about is in some way inferior and is belittling them in a way that goes against Scripture and how the Lord instructs us to conduct ourselves. We can say something is unscriptural, that is goes against the Lord's commands, or is not of the Lord. But when we take to using those kinds of names that, even indirectly, imply a mental deficit or cast an aspersion on someone, we are still resulting to name-calling.

Paul tells us in Colossians:

"Therefore consider the members of your earthly body as dead to immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which amounts to idolatry. For it is because of these things that the wrath of God will come upon the sons of disobedience, and in them you also once walked, when you were living in them. But now you also, put them all aside: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech from your mouth. Do not lie to one another, since you laid aside the old self with its evil practices, and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him— a renewal in which there is no distinction between Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave and freeman, but Christ is all, and in all. So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father." (Colossians 3:5-17, NASB, emphasis mine)

Additionally, insulting one another over disagreements gives a tremendous amount of "ammunition" to the enemies of God to use against Him. Keep in mind that our words here are seen by more than simply "the regulars" who visit here, not to mention one day we will give an account of our deeds, words and even the very thoughts and feelings in our hearts before the Lord.

Yes, you can think what you want, but does what you think line up with the Word?

"Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith. For just as we have many members in one body and all the members do not have the same function, so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to exercise them accordingly: if prophecy, according to the proportion of his faith; if service, in his serving; or he who teaches, in his teaching; or he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness." (Romans 12:1-8, NASB, emphasis mine)

I'm not trying to condemn you sis; I'm just asking you to consider your words in the light of Scripture and in the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Look I am sorry if I have offended anyone. But there are just some things that people say that I just think are nuts. It may not mean that they are nuts.( I am sure I have even said something nuts a few times in my life)  But what they are saying is nuts. And I just can't help but think that way when something sounds wayyyyy out there to me. And what was being posted by the OP sounded wayyyy out there to me. Would it have been better if I had just said that what they are saying is wayyy out there instead of nuts?
