In plain words where the simplest child would understand, and the only way I know to put it, it’ll rot. And it’s laying right in there rottening in your body. And when it does, your heart stream, your bloodstream is being purified by your heart, and it picks up that and causes sickness and headaches, and oh, you can’t stand up hardly. And the person immediately, the patient, weak in faith, will say, “I lost my healing.” Why, God’s not that kind of a Father. You can’t lose your healing. Jesus purchased it. It’s yours. When Jesus prayed for Peter, said, “I’ll pray that your faith fail not,” not his morals, ’cause they did, but, “That your faith fail not…” See? Now, now, when you go…Now, let me show you what takes place. Excuse me for saying, “Let me show you.” I didn’t mean that. I don’t mean that. I could show you nothing, but I’ll tell you to the best of my knowledge what I see in the realm of it.
