Christian Physicians Prescribe "Spiritual Healing" at 7th Annual "Spirituality and Medicine" Conference

Dan Wooding : May 27, 2010  ASSIST News

"There are a lot of Christian medical organizations, all of which are very well respected and I love them, but we at the World Christian Doctors Network are different in the sense that we are going into the miracle part of the healing. We are not going to stop being doctors, but we are going to use a superior tool—the healing power of God—in order to be helping our beloved patients."

(Rome, Italy)—Some 240 Christian doctors from some 40 different countries around the world have prescribed "spiritual healing" as an answer to sickness in the 21st Century. They believe that medicine alone cannot deal with some of today's worst illnesses.

The medics gathered in the eternal city of Rome from on May 22-23, 2010, for the 7th Annual World Christian Doctors Network "Spirituality and Medicine" Conference held at the Sheraton Roma Hotel and Conference Center in Rome and they examined actual case studies of miracles presented by various respected doctors.

Dr. ArmandoHonduran-born Dr. Armando Pineda-Velez, US Director of WCDN, a nuclear medicine physician, told me that there are a lot of doctors today who "not only believe in God but believe that God is healing today."

He said, "hey are putting their prestige on the line for something that they know; that the truth that the Gospel of power can be manifested in the 21st Century.

"This is a different kind of organization," he continued. "There are a lot of Christian medical organizations, all of which are very well respected and I love them, but we at the World Christian Doctors Network are different in the sense that we are going into the miracle part of the healing. We are not going to stop being doctors, but we are going to use a superior tool—the healing power of God—in order to be helping our beloved patients."

Dr. Pineda-Velez said that he encouraged Christian doctors to lay hands on their sick patients and pray for their supernatural healing. "I think that the power of healing and faith has to be used by doctors," he said. "Anyway, we are not the one who heals—it is Jesus!"

I then asked him what happens when people are not healed.

"You know," said Dr. Pineda-Velez, "healing resides only in the sovereignty of a merciful and gracious God. It's not only up to us in this equation. There are two involved here—God and you. Does He decide to heal you? I don't know. Does He have a purpose for your disease? Maybe; maybe not! Do you have enough faith? I don't know. Yes the measure of faith you have is important but we also have the sovereignty of God. He still rules your life."

The doctors, who for these two days forsook the formality of being medics and became "ordinary Christians" and joined whole-heartedly in the worship sessions, raising their hands in the air in praise and some even dancing along to the music.

Korean DancersOne doctor told me, "This has been like a refreshing rain for me. Meeting with doctors who believe in divine healing from around the world, has been such a blessing. There have been times when I thought I was the only doctor who believed in miracles, but now I know that I am not alone, and there are many more who also believe this way."

Delegates were captivated as medics and some patients took turns in presenting case studies of miracles during the two-day conference in Rome, the most of dramatic of which was presented by Dr. Dr.(remove one of the duplicates) Chauncey W. Crandall IV, who serves at the Palm Beach Cardiovascular Clinic in Palm Beach, Florida. The doctor caused a sensation during his dramatic presentation on the first day of the conference when he told of that day on October 20, 2006 when a middle-aged auto mechanic, Jeff Markin, walked into the Emergency Room at the Palm Beach Gardens Hospital and collapsed from a massive heart attack.

Forty minutes later he was declared dead. After filling out his final report, the supervising cardiologist, Dr. Chauncey Crandall, started out of the room. In a later interview with me, Dr. Crandall explained, "Before I crossed its threshold, however, I sensed God was telling me to turn around and pray for that dead patient."

Crandall had learned to follow that impulse even if he was embarrassed. "Father God," he said, under his breath, "I cry out for this man's soul. If he does not know You as his Lord and Savior, raise him from the dead now, in Jesus' name."

With that prayer and Dr. Crandall's instruction to give the man what seemed one more useless shock from the defibrillator, Jeff Markin came back to life—and remains alive and well today.

Many other doctors made their "miracle" presentations and then were quizzed by their peers about aspects of the "evidence" and then would share their views about the veracity of (the) case being a miracle.

So if you are sick, and you have a Christian physician, why not ask him (or her) to prescribe a miracle for you? That's what these doctors who met Rome would do.
