How much faith, worship, or praise is enough? You honestly believe that a little child is blind because some bystanders weren’t good enough?

I ask again, who needs a Savior if our own actions save or heal us? Yes we are called to faith, but that very faith is the Gift of God. If such faith does not suffice, then we are all destined for Hell.

First, I said it was a young woman, not a girl. I was dating her at the time. I was kneeling right next to her and she looked right into my face. She was staring at her hands, having never seen her own hands before.

“I ask again, who needs a Savior if our own actions save or heal us?”

We’re not talking about salvation. Salvation is an individual thing and you don’t need the response of anyone to get saved!

We’re talking about healing. Healing is VERY much a group thing. It matters a great deal if the people present believe in the power of the Lord to heal, or not.

Southern Baptist missionaries in Africa see healings all the time. They are common over there! African believers of all denominations believe in the power of God to heal. Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, Episcopalian, they all have seen them.

But in the United States, Baptist churches do not believe in healings. Most will not even pray for healing, they pray for the doctors. So there are few if any healings in Baptist churches. Because of their *unbelief*.
