Oh how people will fall for everything in the news..
The stupidity is beyond measure, when all self-thinking and logic is gone and you rely your trust in others...

Christians don't consult psychics, ouija board, or medium. They consult the Bible!
"Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families through her witchcrafts. Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame. And I will cast abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock."- Nahum 3:4-6 KJV
"Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God."- Leviticus 19:31 KJV
"For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king."- 1 Samuel 15:23 KJV
"Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,"- Galatians 5:19-20 KJV
"And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived."- Revelation 18:23 KJV

An interesting perspective. And I know some will be offended by it. Buy maybe that's healthy in some ways.
19th Century Faith Cure: Fanaticism and Exaggerated Claims
As you already noticed in my previous post, I have been reading about the healing movement of the 19th century, which is sometimes labeled Faith Cure. One of the movement's hallmarks was to build so-called healing homes. These homes allowed the physically and mentally ill to rest. They were cared for and prayed for. Many testimonies of miraculous healings came from the healing homes of people like Ethan Otis Allen (1813-1903), Charles Cullis (1833-1892), or Dorothea Trudel (1813-1862). However, some critics were not entirely convinced of these testimonies. One of the most famous critics was B. B. Warfield. He believed the cures often happened by natural rather than supernatural means. He writes:
"In many of them means are openly used, means which rank among the specifically best means known to medical science. This is the case, for example, with all the instances of cures made in the Faith-Houses. Who doubts that multitudes of the sick would find cure under the skilled and tireless nursing of a Dorothea Trüdel, who was known to pass the whole day without food, utterly forgetting the claims of her body in devotion to her work? Who doubts that great physical benefit could be found by many in "the silence and retirement of the simple cure of Pastor Rein"? Doctor Weir Mitchell won fame as a physician through his "rest-cure." What medical man will not agree that good nursing and a quiet and restful state of body and mind are among the best of curative agents?" (B. B. Warfield, Counterfeit Miracles, 183).
I think Warfield brings up a valid observation, even though we cannot entirely generalize. Having read Konrad Zeller's biography of Trudel, there might have been some authentic Divine healings. But of course, it is difficult to be sure. The healing movement was undoubtedly characterized by fanaticism and emotionalism. These states of mind encourage confirmation bias and selective perception. This means that a natural healing will more likely be misinterpreted as a supernatural healing resulting from an extraordinary faith. Another issue was that the medical field was still in its infancy, and many drugs produced side effects that naturally disappeared when discontinuing their intake. Because the Faith Cure teachers believed that Christians don't need medicine, the intake of drugs was often discouraged. Hardesty explains, "While giving up all medications sounds drastic to the modern reader, giving up drugs in the nineteenth century may indeed have effected the cure itself... Medications as we know them were not readily available until the 1950s and 1960s, ..." (Nancy A. Hardesty, Divine Healing in the Holiness and Pentecostal Movements, 78, 79). These are issues that are often overlooked when reading the healing testimonies of the 19th and early 20th centuries. The selectivity problem can also be seen in the fact that Faith Cure advocates said very little about all the failed healings. This selectivity sometimes gives the reader the impression that a great work of God was happening in the past that is no longer present. But this is not true. The failure rate was no different than today, and many natural healings were confused for supernatural healings. Warfield writes:
"It is observable, further, that the cases which are successfully treated in the Faith-Houses have their natural limits. Not every one is cured. Not every one is cured. The brother of Samuel Zeller, who succeeded Dorothea Trüdel in her House in Switzerland, sought cure there for years in vain. Dorothea Trüdel's own health remained throughout her life "very feeble"; she suffered from curvature of the spine from an early age and died at forty-eight of typhus fever" (B. B. Warfield, Counterfeit Miracles, 183).

Hardesty notices the same issue that Warfield brings up. She writes, "those for whom divine healing failed seldom left testimonies, but eventually Holiness and Pentecostal communities had to come to terms with their failures as well as their successes" (Nancy A. Hardesty, Divine Healing in the Holiness and Pentecostal Movements, 129).
Many of the leaders in the healing movement died of sickness themselves. Here is a list of Faith Cure proponents and the cause of their death:
- A. B. Simpson: heart failure, age 75
- A. J. Gordon: influenza and bronchitis, age 59
- Charles Cullis: chronic nephritis (kidney disorder), age 59
- Dorothea Trudel: typhus fever, age 48
- John Alexander Dowie: stroke, age 59
- John G. Lake: stroke, age 65
So, what lessons can we learn from all of that?
1) God occasionally heals through Divine intervention. We discern such healings by their spontaneity, completeness, and lack of medical explanation.
2) We must be careful not to confuse natural and Divine healing. Natural healing can happen through the natural healing powers of our bodies, rest, nutrition, psychosomatic factors, etc. We should understand this type of healing as part of God's common grace and good providence.
3) Fanaticism and enthusiasm can lead to confirmation bias and selective perception. Those caught up in these mental states (e.g., Faith Cure proponents) tend to misrepresent or exaggerate the actual situation.
