My opinion is even in areas outside of pharmacology, witchcraft and sorcery today use some of the same things we use everyday besides medicine. It's not what you use so much as how and why it is used. And who gets the praise and glory when someone is healed through whatever means. Good and evil ring a bell? And no I am not debating the passage used.

I didn't say I don't take medicines, Ferd, did I? I'm just saying you can't disconnect modern day pharmaceuticals from the pursuit of medicinal cures back when the medicine men and witch doctors were the ones coming up with cures. You would only be fooling yourself to say otherwise, Bro. Like I said, I don't know why the translators chose witchcraft as how they translated that word or how it got lumped in with all them other evils, but there's no sense in trying to deny it means what it means.
Hey Rico:
So what is your point here? You are saying that you do think it has roots in witchcraft, but you take them anyway? Either you don't really think that, and you are just stirring the pot , or you do really think that and you are blatantly embracing witchcraft. Which is it?

Again, what's the point in discussing this with you, Carp? Anything I say is going to be dumb because you are so much smarter than I am. I don't have the time or the patience for it today.
This is really not to defend Rico! Rico is not dumb. Being Christians as we are, right??? We should make every effort to post without insults! Insults are the world's way of manipulation. Isn't being a follower of Jesus founded with love???

Brother, I take Metformin, iron pills and vit c. Yesterday, I think I took vit C instead of Metformin and I absolutely crashed.
Is it interesting about meds. This past week I have prayed for two bi-polar friends. I told my husband how I think their condition is related to over medicating or mixing meds. In fact, one was committed to a psych ward for a couple of weeks. She said nothing is wrong w/ her and she is none stop talk. When she got out of the hospital, she said my shrink finally allowed me to get back on my fluid pills and hearing meds ???? She needs to get off some of those meds IMHO... She takes heart, blood pressure and on and on meds... I truly believe with less medication they would not have a bi polar condition.
IMHO, certain meds can contribute to evil in ones life. It is no "poppycock"! Meds are basically a mask or bandaid most of the time.
I agree with Ferd. Be careful about recommending others take this or that medication, or worse, stop taking something their doctor has prescribed for them.
A member of my husband's family DIED because a well-meaning preacher recommended he stop taking the drugs needed to control his diabetes. He flushed them down the toilet. Unfortunately, God had not healed him.

We love Rico!
But after all these years we have discovered that Rico (Like most of the posters here at AFF) has a fluctuating I.Q.
At times it rises to near genius proportions, while othertimes is plummets to a near vegetative state
