The point is this... whether we take meds to ease pain or whatever, or not, we have to trust God. Job did: "Yea, thou he slay me, yet will I trust Him!". Using meds is no more a sign of a lack of faith, than refusing meds is a sign of faith. I trust God to keep me safe while wiring up an AC unit. But I still use insulated tools. Using meds to help with pain or whatever is no different.

I do see taking medications as a lack of faith, but I realize that many Apostolics don't have the great Faith like some Apostolics have. It is the carnal mind that many Apostolics have where they can't trust God completely, which is typical.
