"trusting" God instead of taking an existing cure is a ESS EYE IN SIN.
when you "trust" God instead of taking an existing remedy, you are hurting the Timple of God and the bible calls that a sin. and there is scripture for it. period.
Sin Rico. ESPECIALLY when its your child that is sick.
Ferd, there is no mandate in scripture to go see doctors for treatment. I've heard quite a bit of preaching on this subject, and I know there is at least one example of one of Israel's kings going to a doctor, instead of trusting God, and God was very displeased with him. I would have to look it up to know all the details, because it's been a good while since I heard it.

There is no mandate to breath Rico, but we all agree that refusal to do so is dertimental to ones over all health.... helping another to not breath will land you in the pokey.
I see very litte difference between these two things.
you may chose to equivicate if you wish. It is a sin. period. end of story.

End of story? I didn't realize that God has now appointed you the "end of story" determiner.
By the time the two of you are done, you'll both needs meds for your blood pressure
I think you should agree to disagree !
Sister, we're not upset. We're just discussing the issue, giving our opinions, and, in my case, defending the faith of people who have gone down this road.
Rico you said "God gets the glory whether He heals someone or not".
How does God get glory out of someone dying???

Rico I was teasing
I believe everyone has the right to decide whats best for them. I myself don't go to the doc much, but I don't get sick a lot, nothing major that is. To be frank most doctor scare me, they seem unable to diagnosed illness without the help of many test , more like cover their butts to avoid a lawsuit! When I was younger it was not like this, doctors took the time to know their patient they spent time with you, today your lucky if you get five min out em.
Now as far as children go, I always took my in if it was anything other then a cold, when they are adults then they can decide.
I believe our bodies are a wonderful thing and has the power to heal, renew itself, if given time and treated right, through diet and excises. People tend to take better care of their cars and what goes into it then their own body!
The only thing I've ever asked is that my children will outlive me, as should be and I hope I go fast like most do on my dads side, never knew what got em....
