Generally speaking, not in and of itself.

Theoretically, Pastor Wright (not taking the facts in his case and God’s perspective abou doing so into account), Pastor Wright is as much fair game for anti-perspectives as anyone else. In that sense, feel free. Shred him up one side and down the other. I’d advise, however, being ready to answer His Master for any inaccurate assertions or bad-faith, evil motives in doing so.

He really is an exceedingly humble man. He knows it’s unwise and won’t work for him or his ministry or his team to become a substitute nipple for anyone. He behaves in many ways to prevent that. He structures and operates things to put the information down into Believers, individuals at the individual, personal need level for THE INDIVIDUAL to transact their own healing business with God directly. His whole paradigm has insisted from the beginning that THATS’ WHERE IT HAS TO BE.

Catholics have a long history of healing in Christ, for instance, Fr. Francis McNutt,

“In the 37 years that MacNutt has claimed the gift of supernatural healing, he has seen people cured of everything from asthma, allergies and heart disease to high blood pressure, cancer and torn arches. He once prayed for a woman and then watched as her foot grew to its normal size, from size 5 to 7-1/2. In 1982 a woman’s brain tumor disappeared when he prayed—and after she returned home to South Carolina her doctor documented the miracle.

MacNutt’s methods are not always orthodox. Often he will stand in front of an audience and sing in an unknown language. He doesn’t know what he’s saying, and neither do the people in the crowd, but listeners are sometimes healed just by hearing the heavenly glossolalia...”

I was healed by the prayers and intercession of Blessed Teresa. The very large cancerous tumor is present on MRI, but at surgery, it was just about gone. Still had to be removed, but with no further treatment and no problems.

What we distrust, and rightly so, are poorly documented “healings.” One doctor, or set of tests proves nothing.

Another red flag is the cottage industry that this “healer” has created around his industry. His fees are pretty steep.

“I’d advise, however, being ready to answer His Master for any inaccurate assertions or bad-faith, evil motives in doing so.”

Yes, you should consider all you say. You will account. Nothing is hidden, not even the motivation deep within you that takes its form in derision, hatefilled sneering colorworked words hiding a self-righteous soul steeped in contempt.
