Derren Brown Exposing Faith Healing Scams

Derren Brown recently did a show called "Miracles for Sale" where he debunks and exposes common faith healing tricks used to con believers into coughing up donations. Scams like this run rampant in America and believers are too busy believing to stop and question anything. Knowledge is power, but often times, it is also a vaccine.

proverbs 3-5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;

6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

john 14:12

I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.

When its close friends that get heal of "Spinal disc herniation" (which don't have a cure yet) or "back muscle nerve interference" (with clinical proof) and someone i know that was unable to stand without using crotch all the time, start running and jumping all over the place, you can ask yourself if its only all in their head...

it's just sad when people think there made-up god can heal people xD All the medical science humans have done feels wasted on them.

[TheDuck1234]

@jfilesbooks Doctors is healers...not any made-up god

@Paladin4Him By "fruit" I obviously meant an actual medical healing, such as curing blindness performed purely by prayer, not the conversions you talk about. Nor do I see anything positive about converting people into believing something without evidence.

[TheStJames23]

@Paladin4Him so ultimately it doesn't matter what any of us do on Earth, as long as we accept Jesus?

@ohforfsakeletmein

Well...Lets pick someone who "everyone (even christians) judge to Hell". "Everyone" calls him falsepropheet and devil etc. Benny Hinn. I don't know him personally, and yes, the suits are not always the cheapest. But,during Hinns conferences hundreds and thousands have truly given their life to Jesus.I quite him: "If I say something which is against the Bible. I'm wrong and bible is right.

Reinhard Bonkke:over 44 000 000 have given life to Jesus. good fruits

@TheStJames23

The thing with commandments is to show you why you need Jesus. If you commit even smallest sin(steal a candy) you are a sinner and going to Hell. And this is not about Me scare you, choose Jesus.Its just pure Truth about the Trial where you have been already proved guilty, and then Someone has already taken the judgement for you.. the thing is just to believe in that Truth Its the truth, you make decision to believe(or not) to it. I hope you are wise to choose right
