Question

What part do doctors play in healing?

Answer

And doctors, they don’t heal; they just assist nature. They don’t claim to heal. They can sew a place up, but they can’t heal it. They might set a bone, but they can’t heal it.

Question

Why were handkerchiefs from Paul's body laid on the sick?

Answer

Now, look. Here’s where I think Paul got the idea, minister brethren, of laying handkerchiefs on the sick.

When a doctor treats someone, who does the healing?

And now clearly understand, before we call this line. That there is no power in any man on earth to heal you in the way of Divine healing. A doctor might move a place; he might set an arm.
