Lots of people disagree with lots of things I believe, but if they don't have Bible for their disagreement, they are disagreeing with God too.

Good question...I'm done for the night, Saints...goodnite...

To claim that uncut hair heals people is akin to witchcraft. Faith heals us. Uncut hair doesn't. That's Bible.

I believe we can refer to these kind of things when we pray. I've prayed before reminding God of obedience and sacrifice and faithfulness but not every prayer is always answered because of these things.

Neither does my obedience, yieldedness, submission, sacrifice protect me against catastrophe or sickness nor does it ward off such.
Good points, my friend.

Obedience does too, as the man that dipped in the muddy water. However, the man didn't go around preaching to be healed you had to dip in the river.

Well, frankly I am a lititle surprised that we don't know Rachel's last name and haven't read about it elsewhere. Makes you wonder about this anonymous couple attending one of the largest churches... Pentecostal Urban Legend?
