Who should get the credit?
A man who went into cardiac arrest in a church last Sunday had two forces on his side: paramedics, and the prayers of pastor and congregation. When the man regained a pulse, the latter claimed victory, The Blaze reports.
"When they raised the IV I knew that was a glimmer of hope and I knew that something powerful had taken place," said E. Dewey Smith, pastor of the House of Hope Church in Decatur, Georgia, WGCL Atlanta reports.
Church members talked about feeling a "power in the room" and "the blessing of God's hand" while the man was unconscious for 15 minutes. Smith led a prayer as paramedics attended to the man, who had flat-lined.
In a possible contradiction, members also called it divine intervention that paramedics were there in the first place. The emergency workers had come responding to another incident that turned out to be a false alarm, and remained to hear the pastor's service, a parishioner says. See below for link:

Soo... do you think God, or the paramedics should get the credit for the miracle?
