She said her faith wasn't lessened but her body was depleted.

She said she found help and counseling and her medical doctor explained what her body was doing and what it needed. She was given medication which she no longer takes.

She said she is past that season in her life.

She encouraged people who are hurting and depressed and have anxiety, and who look at their life and find no reason for it, to not be ashamed but to find help. She did not mention what kind of help or push meds or therapy.


This is absolutely UNTRUE!

MtD mentioned bearing false witness in another thread. I disagreed with his example; however, this is a clear case of bearing false witness against both this Minister's wife and the conference. Both were accused of releasing some demonic spirit.

An apology would be appropriate.

The Sister said she went to a counselor, then was referred to a doctor upon which she started taking medication... What was she talking about? Depression and Anxiety.

She said to the audience that might be dealing with what??? Depression and Anxiety, she told them to find help! What help did she receive? Counseling from a counselor, and then to the doctor for medication. I said in my original post the therapist part I might’ve got mixed with the Pastor that has the Down syndrome child.

Her Husband said they done everything they could do, before going to see the counselor and then to the doctor. If I’m in the church and I’m going through a problem and I tell people Ive done everything I know, what does that mean? That means I prayed, fasted, talked to my Pastor. Maybe I should not have assumed that but thats how I took it.

I’m sorry to everyone in this forum it was not my intention to misrepresent anyone. I saw the forum on being made whole from BOTT 2020. I was grieved when I heard this Sis. State that she was on depression medication. I understand n David you dont think she was, but she said depression, and anxiety and even told the audience to seek help like she did. She went to the counselor and then to a doctor to receive her medication. I understand n David she didn't say what type of help she should seek, yet she gave the help she took, what does it do to others, I’m feeling depressed or have anxiety I’m going to go to a counselor and then to a doctor for meds. You and others may agree, but I don't.

I don't feel I fabricated this story, if you feel that way I’m sorry.

I watched it once and was disappointed in what she was saying helped her, i didn't have the luxury to go back and listen again, I took the major points

she was depleted,

she dealt with depression/anxiety

her husband said they did everything they could think of before going to counseling and then referred to the doctor

She took medication for depression/anxiety

She urged others to get help like she did.

Like I said I’m sorry if I misrepresented any of that, if you feel I lied I’m sorry, if you feel I fabricated please forgive me. If you feel having depression and anxiety is a chemical imbalance and natural to have, then forgive me for using her as an example of what we shouldn’t be doing. If you believe depression and anxiety meds are ok to take from a doctor after seeing a counselor then I’m sorry for offending you. My views are not your views, I believe depression and anxiety are spirits, I believe those type of meds are opens doors to demonic activity. I believe in going to the Counselor not a worldly counselor.

however, this is a clear case of bearing false witness against both this Minister's wife and the conference. Both were accused of releasing some demonic spirit.

Brother she went to a counselor!!! WHY???? She said she was depleted, think about that, what does she mean? Was it her physical body? She talked about depression and anxiety, taking medication for.... no she didn’t come out and say “I’m taking medication for Depression and Anxiety.” If it was for something simple, why go see a counselor? Then go to the doctor and she was prescribed medication for what? She told the congregation, if your dealing with depression and anxiety (if she wasn’t dealing with that why mentioned it) she encouraged them to seek help. She’s the leader up there talking about it, if there is someone there struggling with depression or anxiety there going to do what she did. And as you pointed out she didn't pray or fast, I at least gave her the benefit of the doubt when her husband said “we did everything we knew to do”. I’m sorry but to stick up and agree to take meds for depression or anxiety in my option is wrong. If I got the story wrong and totally fabricated a story from thin air, I undertook your anger. But I don't believe I did. I may of got a word here or there off, because it was a forum with 5 people talking, what i said didn’t change the outlining of what she said.

If I bear false witness to this women, and to the conference I’m sorry. I will not be coming back for a while. Once I see that people feel I lied, bear false witness, fabricated a story its time to stop.
