Jeremy Camp - This Man

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
~ I Timothy 2; 5

But we have been arguing over words and very detailed points for a while now... Let us take a step back and assess what exactly it is that has pushed you so far from the faith you once had? Is it really because you believe that you have reasoned out everything and concluded that your reason firmly eliminates the possible existence of a God? Forgive me if I sound insulting, but I am not trying to insult you whatsoever. Just trying to get to the point, so sorry if I sound offensive.

I'm not even going to get into the issue of commenting on or insulting other religions. I really respect other religions, like Buddhisim or Hindi. But all I'm saying is that prayer is powerful. You can justify denying that as much as you want, but the truth is that you have no proof whatsoever that prayer cannot help the sick or the needy. In fact, as you said before, it can at least bring psycho-biological benefits. And maybe God just has compassion on anyone who prays to a higher power?

If you are putting your faith in Scientists i feel bad for you . Most Scientists can't ever agree on some issues. For example Global warming one says we are at fault then another says no way.

In the same respect, you could say that luck works the same way though... was it really prayer, or was it just luck? Couldn't one get the same idea of prayer by rubbing a golden buddha statue and thinking it will bring them fortune? So why the Christian God? Why not Buddha, or Brahman, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster? People pray to them and receive the same effect.

This video makes me bawl like a baby every time.

i cry when ever i hear this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In our culture and in many indigenous non-European cultures, our medicine never replaced G-d. This is the source of unbelief in western society. They do not consider the source of the medicine that heals. In my culture, healing is not only "scientific' through chemicals, it encompasses body and soul and the main connector is to the Creator. G-d exists. Some men have forgotten and replaced themselves on the throne.

I love God

Not to mention there are obviously countless cases where prayer may have helped other than in health-related situations. For example, someone could pray that something very unlikely would turn out a certain way. If the prayer is a "success," it is not because it was a psycho-bio effect, but rather quite possible that there could have been a higher power involved. You might still say this can't be proved, but again, can you even prove that the prayer didn't help?
