I have and do but sometimes God uses the gifts He's given man to save them. It is obvious....to most..that Scripture commends the proper use of medicines and for me to withhold obvious life saving efforts would be criminal.

But again, in case I'm not a good speed pray-er I better give the life saving medication.

Which scripture commends this?

The many references to wine, oil, balms used in a healing way. BTW, should I let those little babies die if I pray and nothing happens?

No, you shouldn't let them die, a lot of Apostolics seem to think that I was saying that taking medication is witchcraft, but I was not. I do believe that people who are on medications are in bondage though.

WOW!!! You are actually discussing this with me, that is unusual for a Apostolic to be able to discuss something like this.

You mis-speak. I'm not a oneness pentecostal.

It's tough to see otherwise when you've labeled your thread Witchcraft = medication and you state that medication messes with the mind.

There are many parents that thank God I helped their babies using drugs.

I didn't think you were and I am not sure how I knew that. That is what the bible says about it and that is why the title is named as such.

For me not to perform witchcraft on these babies is murder.........I'll stick with witchcraft.

A friend of mine's wife. Before they were married. They did not believe in going to Doctors at all. Their 14 yr. old son went into a coma and died 3 days later. Diabetes. Take your meds and go to the Doctor in Jesus name. Or at least don't put them beliefs on your babies. Got a brain.. use it.
I have read that the latin word Pharmikia (means sorcery).. thus the word pharmecutical (meds, drugs). Just because language was put together in a certain way, does not make it 100% accurate. I regularly take a med and I know its not witch craft. I work with some bi-polar dudes, and I am ohh so thankful they take their medicine. Like a liver,heart or foot having a problem.. so can a brain. Just my thoughts. God bless.

Tim,
Is taking a synethically made chemical compound, God's purposed supply of healing within his creation?
