<TITLE>04. Par 17-20</TITLE>L-17 Now, many times, the church gets that mixed up, and they try to apply phileo love, which means "friendship," to be like agapao love. But here's the difference. If you love your wife, as you should, and some man would insult your wife, you'd kill him, because you'd be jealous of her. That's what phileo love would lead to. But agapao love would make you pray for his lost soul. That's the difference. See? It's the difference. God...
Everything that is now, is something that has been right. And all unrighteousness is righteousness perverted. There is nothing that what has never been. For instance, all sin is righteousness made sin.
Now, you've heard people say that the devil can heal. There's only one thing wrong with that statement. The man who made that statement doesn't know his Bible to begin with, neither does he know the God Who wrote It. The devil has no power to heal, and cannot heal, and never did heal, and never will heal.

L-18 I've got a Lutheran college in Minneapolis, Minnesota, tonight with signs and wonders among their people, because the minister wrote me the letter and said, a man that speaks to the people as many as you do, and say that the devil cannot heal... And he tried to base upon a witch, or woman, that people comes, and feels around, and she tells them that... Well, she'd pluck a little hair our of their head, and rub it in some blood out of their veins, and goes down, and throws it in the river, and starts walking back, if she's constrained to look around, the disease comes back. But if she goes on, then the people gets well. He said, "We've watched, and twenty or thirty percent of those people are healed, and then you say the devil can't heal."
I said, "The strange thing is, to you, Dr. Aegery, is this. I'm surprised, that you, being a Lutheran dean, would base your doctrine upon an experience in the stead of the Word of God." That's right. Jesus said, "Satan cannot cast out Satan." That settles it.

L-19 I said, "'Course, there's a lot of people saying that Divine healers going through the land. There is no such a thing. I've never seen one in my life and never will see one. God's the Healer. But the people sometime approaching people that makes such statements, get healed. That's true. I've seen witch--witch doctors have the people healed, but what is it?
I've seen them go to idols. There at Alsace-Lorraine, France, they go up to an idol of a dead woman and get healed, but that isn't because that the dead woman done it. It's the people thinking they're approaching God through the woman.
Like it is with the Divine healers, like it is also with the--the witch. They thought they were approaching God through the witch, and God has to honor faith, regardless of where it is. That's right. So there is no healing...

L-20 What is healing? Healing is the developing of cells, a multiplication of cells, making cells, mending.
You might break your arm. Doctor can't heal your arm; he can set it. God has to heal it. But He's the only Creator there is. Satan cannot create. He perverts what God has created.
I've got a mixed audience, of course, and I am your brother. And you listen at your doctor. To you married men, you have your wife; you live with your wife. The act of being wife and husband is just as legitimate as it can be. But the same act with another woman, you're gone. What is it? Righteousness perverted. That's right. All sin is righteousness perverted.
Now, I'm not a Bible teacher, so I'll get off of that onto my subject.
