Satan and Sickness
Sometimes we hear of one who is stricken with some deadly disease.
He is taken to a healing meeting and, seemingly at least, is completely
restored. Can this possibly be of Satan? Why not?...
...One of the saddest aspects of modern healing campaigns is the long,
sad trail of disillusionment and shaken faith it leaves behind...
...If one fundamentalist believer can use this [great?] commission to teach
water baptism, why should not another use it to teach snake handling, for
this commission distinctly says:
“These signs SHALL follow them that believe...they shall take up serpents....”
If the commission to the eleven is our commission, let’s obey it all. It is not
our prerogative to decide what part or parts of this commission we are to obey,
and to ignore the rest....
...What an apostate system teaches, however, is not our chief concern.
We are more deeply concerned about Bible-believing Christians, who
are true to the fundamentals of the faith. Until these learn the importance
of dispensational truth and begin to rightly divide God’s Word, especially as
to His message for the world today and His program for the Church today,
they will be forced—self-forced—to go on serving the Lord as a divided army.
