What I do like is that if you have need of an antibiotic you can, after the dose is taken in full, administer Acidolphilous which replaces the "friendly bacteria" in your colon that Antibiotics strip you of.

Yes!!! I use that stuff!!! I have a bottle of it in the freezer right now.

You can also eat yogurt with the added cultures or whatever they're called.

Is this God's purposed blessing for all of us lucky-ducks living in 2008?

Are your liver and kidneys up for the task of processing 'God's blessing" out of your blood stream?

Why do your liver and kidneys want to remove what God has supplied as a remedy?

IMO, these are an example of questions that need to at least be soberly considered before we become too causal about our linking God with synthetic chemistry ingested into our bodies.

lets drill down a bit.

if a person has some cronic problem (lets say a heart rythem issue as an example) and there is no cure however there is a medication that will help control the symptoms (a heart that races out of control and can lead to cardiac arrest).

what is your suggestion tbpew?
the injestion of these chemicals is not curitive. what do you suggest this person do? do they injest the chemicals thereby altering their own body chemistry or is there some other approach that you would suggest there is an alternative to recieve "Gods Blessing"?

I have some also. I always keep in on hand. When my son was going through the small acne issue, well, maybe just breakouts, he took this and it really helped him.

your simple statement that "it is in the bible" is easy to say.... yet the ease with which you can say it is no prove to the verasity of the statement itself.

the point Oman is that it is NOT in the bible as you purpose.

Ferd,

It's in the bible, but if you choose to believe it is not in the bible, then that is on you. I won't follow the traditions of me.

BTW, If you want to take your drugs, then keep taking them, but I have my convictions and I don't have to take drugs(medications) because I would rather pray for God to heal me and He does. Another thing is that if you take your drugs, I do not think that you are sinning, but I don't know what God thinks about it though.

Ferd,

God completely healed me of that without drugs of any kind.
