<TITLE>24. Par 69-72</TITLE>L-69 Now, I believe Billy said he give a hundred prayer cards. I don't know what letter it would be. E? Well, there wouldn't be no more anyhow, cause we prayed for ever... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... medicine will heal you. If he does, he--he doesn't know what he's talking about. Healing is the multiplication of cells or life. Medicine will not produce life. If they had a let--medicine make life, we'd pour it in a bottle, shake it, and a man come out. See? But we're not... We don't have it. If you go... Now, you say, "Brother Branham, what's your thought about doctors?"
I believe they are servants of God. I believe that there is some among them that's not. But there's some among preachers that's not servants of God too. I find more believing doctors, than I do believing preachers, in the supernatural.

L-70 I visited a hospital here, not long ago, for a check up before going overseas; I talked to the whole medical staff, and every one on the staff believes in Divine healing. Certainly. If you'll present it to them sensibly. One of the head doctors at this certain hospital said to me, said, "Why, Mr. Branham," said, "we push people back that's dead. No pulse at all." And said, "The first thing you know, we realize that room of surgery, Somebody's in there beside us." That's right.
Now look, what if I broke my arm, and I went to a doctor, and said, "Heal it doc, right quick, I want to finish my job."
He'd said, "You need mental healing." That's right. He can set it, but God has to heal. God has to produce the calcium and stuff that goes in that bone, and knit that bone together; there's no medicine that'll do it.
Now, what if I had a appendicitis, the doctor had to operate? He didn't heal me; he just took out the appendix. Who's going to heal the place they cut out? There's no medicine that'll heal it.

L-71 Somebody said to me, said, "Brother Branham..."
One time I made a remark like that. I made it like this; I said, "Any medicine that will heal my hand, if I cut my hand... Look, if I cut my hand, would fall down dead, you could--you could put all the medicine in the world in my hand, and embalm my body and make me look natural for fifty years, that cut would be just like it was when I fell down dead." Sure. If medicine heals, why don't it heal? Now, medicine heal the cut in my hand; it'd heal the cut in my coat. Heal a cut here.
"Why," you said, "medicine wasn't made for your coat nor this."
Well, what about my body then, if I'm--if I fall down dead, and you sew it up, and embalm my body, why don't it heal if it heals the body?"
"Why," you say, "life is gone out."
Oh, that's it. Life. What is life? Tell me what life is, and I'll tell you Who God is. For God is the abundant Life. Exactly right. It's your attitude towards it. See? You can't do it. So you must remember that--that God is the only Healer there is.

L-72 Someone said to me one time, said, "Brother Branham, what about penicillin for pneumonia, bad colds?"
I said, "Sure. Penicillin is like putting rat poison in your house, when the rats has eaten holes in your house. It kills the rats, but it don't heal up the holes where eaten." Exactly right. Penicillin is a poison in a body that kills the germs. And then it doesn't--it doesn't restore the blood cell that it tore down. God has to do that. Certainly.
So God is the only Healer there is. If it isn't, the Bible's wrong. God said in Psalms 103:3, "I'm the Lord, that heals all your diseases." I hold my...
