And?
Has there ever been a verified case of faith healing?
I've experienced it in my personal life and seen others.
My mother survived a coma from a chemical poisoning exposure that no one else in medical history had ever survived. They said she would be completely mentally retarded or paralyzed for the rest of her life if she ever even woke up from the coma, and that she would never recover. No doctor would have told you she would be alive today. Well she woke up, and recovered, as she was prayed over. Besides some side effects from nerve inflammation from dystonia, she's completely normal from anyone else walking around and you wouldn't be able to tell. She gave birth to me.
Beyond that, my personal friend told me someone from his church was born crippled and unable to walk, bound to a wheelchair his whole life. Someone at the church felt led by the Spirit to pray over him and lay hands on him. He prayed for his healing, and the boy got up and started walking.
People who aren't Christians don't really talk about it because they believe it's impossible.
You don't have to believe me, though. I don't really care. I just know what I've seen.
Anyway, on the subject of Bin Laden, I didn't rejoice. I don't feel comfortable with celebrating elatedly over the death of man who was led by a lie and led others into deception. Christians should be sorrowful that the man never got to know Christ, and instead caused so much hurt to the world.
On the other hand, I don't think there's anything wrong with being relieved that he can no longer hurt us and that justice has been dealt.
