I hace serious doubts that even 1% of all claimed demonic posessions are genuine

as for the healing services, I want to see people get healed the way they did in Bible times before I believe it is going on now

like, people blind from birth, people missing limbs, people who are stronger than 12 men getting delivered and sitting in their right mind

unless you can do that, most healings are bogus and figments of the imagination

and I dont want to hear the nonsense that people lac faith and that is why they were not healed. Jesus was welcomed into Jerusalem and healed thousands and was rejected by those same people by the end of the week. Proving they never had faith. Yet, they were healed.

I think Joya has the ref on the . . . was it . . . Smith Wigglesworth’s ministry . . .

I think it was even over a phone call . . .

Anyway—the man had a missing foot—I think from birth. Wigglesworth told him to go down and buy a PAIR of shoes.

The man did exactly as was told . . . the incredulous shoe salesman brought the shoes out . . . and

AS THE MAN PUT HIS STUMP ANKLE INTO THE SHOE—HIS NEW FOOT GREW TO FIT THE SHOE.

Folks will be seeing such things routinely in the not distant future.

It can be hazardous to scoff at what God can do; has done; is doing and will do.

ASSUMPTIONS AND BIAS about “most healings”

are more bogus than a lot of things.

Doesn’t involve solid research at all.

Only involves GROSS ASSUMPTIONS AND GROSS-ER BIAS.

To get a better adjusted picture, it is helpful to have served in the Far East and the Pacific Islands. Possession of peoples’ bodies by unclean spirits is very frequesnt and obvious in these parts. I know it is too in Africa, Haiti, . . .
