Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you today exciting news of medical advancement.
We now have seen an individual healed from his paralysis merely through the prayer of
a Christian preacher.
This now will allow us to heal so many people.
I never knew It was so simple.
Take a look at this incredible video of a Christian preacher restoring the movement
and feeling in a man's paralyzed hand.
And he did it on a stage with music playing.
If you can imagine.
Speaker 2: This, John.
Okay.
He's an electrician.
Four years ago, he was in a work accident where he got completely shot.
He lost feeling in his left hand.
He said today, when you call that out earlier, someone has numbness.
He said he started feeling a tingling sensation in his left hand and in prayer.
He started moving his hand in faith.
He now has mobility and feeling in his left hand.
Wow.
Long time is.
It's time to do it.
I feel a tingling.
I think it needs more because these fingers are not going straight.
Yeah.
I got a lot more movement.
And let's pray.
Complete miracle tonight in Jesus name.
Pray, pray, praying.
Let this miracle be done.
Speaker 1: Folks, pray harder.
Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus.
Look at that.
Do it again.
That's it.
Are you seeing this?
Lord, touch him with your power.
Let this miracle come to pass.
Speaker 1: The guy now has fainted.
No.
Give him that grace.
But his hand is moving perfectly.
Even though the guy is unconscious being too close.
Speaker 2: That hand even now.
In the name of Jesus.
Pick him up for a second.
How shaken up about this are you right now?
Tingly.
Like I just got electrocuted.
Speaker 1: What is that?
Was at the wrong hand there.
Speaker 2: Well, this electricity's good, my brother.
This one's good.
Look at that again.
Oh, my goodness.
Can we give Jesus a mighty.
Speaker 1: Hand to pray?
Remember, it's not the preacher.
It's Jesus that's doing it.
I genuinely hate this stuff.
Now, sometimes the the person being healed is a part of the scam, and sometimes the person
being healed is sort of a victim.
And we've seen every scenario with this.
Okay?
Sometimes it's an individual who is never actually paralyzed, for example.
Sometimes what can happen is there's sort of like a surge of energy.
There's like an endorphin release and you might temporarily think you're healed.
You know, there's often like the ones who I haven't walked in 40 years and then they
stand up and they push their their cane away or their walker or whatever.
And then it turns out they weren't really healed.
They had like a, you know, just a surge of energy.
And they could have briefly stood at any point.
But it doesn't mean that now they can walk or anything like that.
But sometimes the person being healed is just out and out part of the scam.
And it's all a lie, as as I'm sure you can imagine.
And I continue to say, show me a single faith healer who can regrow the amputated limb of
an individual.
That would be something that is much less ambiguous, although you could probably make
a scam with that, too.
Right.
I mean, David Copperfield makes it look like he splits people in half.
So you could you probably could make someone look like they're missing a limb and then
it grows back or whatever.
But you understand what I'm saying?
Do something like that.
And then we might be able to talk about it.
But this goes back a very long time preachers who claim to have cured people of afflictions,
and it's a rowdy sort of revival style crowd.
And sometimes people from the crowd are called out.
Sometimes symptoms are called out and people volunteer themselves.
And again, you don't know if they're victims or if they're scammers or whatever the case
may be.
And sometimes there's a physical laying of hands on them, sometimes there isn't.
We've seen fake surgery.
We've seen all all of this stuff.
And of course, there's no evidence that any of it is miraculous.
And again, we could test this.
We really could.
You know, I'm going to I'm going to tell you the way it could be done.
And we all know that these faith healers would never subject themselves to it.
But if you really wanted to do this, you could go to the faith healers.
You could go, okay, listen, let's make it fair.
Give me the list of conditions you could cure, that you could heal.
None of them would say, I can regrow an amputated limb that would never be there.
They will go, Well, I can cure problems of the of the stomach, you know, stomach pains
I can cure and headaches and tingling, numb, whatever.
Get the get the actually get the list from them of the stuff.
And then you do a controlled experiment.
And then, of course, we all know if any of these folks could really do this stuff.
It would be immediately praised by the medical community.
It would be studied and praised if it was determined to be real.
Now, I know many of you will say, David, the Western medical community would never acknowledge
faith healing, because if faith healing were real, they would be out of a job they wouldn't
need.
You wouldn't need doctors anymore if faith healing were real.
Okay.
Yeah, I understand the motivation claim that you're making, but the medical science community
studies everything.
You know, people like to say We we've never studied the effect of giving people high doses
of niacin for depression.
Actually, we have studied that.
There's many studies about that.
And I guarantee you, especially the medical researchers that are not part of Big Pharma
would be glad to evaluate and study this and we would all know if it were actually a real
thing, but they never subjected themselves to it.
So this can be dangerous in that some people accept it as an alternative to seeking real
medical treatment.
It's often fraudulent.
It often is weaponized against people with little financial means.
So they're there in the first place, maybe because they can pay 40 bucks to go into the
revival tent rather than what it might cost for for real treatment.
And that's a problem with the medical system, of course, which we've talked about.
But let's rely on evidence based medicine.
And I don't know what else to tell you, but this is truly horrible stuff,
