<TITLE>04. Par 12-15</TITLE>L-12 Now, Satan cannot create. Therefore, Satan cannot heal. And there's not a medicine in the world that can heal you. No doctor will tell you that he has a medicine that'll heal you.
And I might say this: We're not against doctors. We're thankful for doctors and for their medicines. But we're living in the day when we've got the best doctors we ever had, the best medicine we ever had, the best hospitals we ever had, and more sickness than we ever had; because we got more unbelief than we ever had. That's just the--the story of it.
I've been interviewed by Johns Hopkins, Mayo Brothers. You know how a ministry like this goes about. And Jimmy Mayo and them, they said, "We do not profess to be healers, Brother Branham. We profess to assist nature. There's one Healer; that is God." Said, "We can move a tooth, but who will heal the place where it come out of? We can move an appendix, but who heals? Something has to create."

L-13 Here: If I cut my hand this afternoon, and... We haven't got a medicine in all medical science to heal that knife cut in my hand, not a one. "Why," you say, "yes, we have, Brother Branham."
Pray tell me what it is. Many people die with knife cuts. Tell me what the healing is.
"Well," you'd say, "Oh, they put penicillin in it."
Penicillin doesn't heal: just keeps cleaning while God heals.
"Well," you say, "well..." Any kni--any medicine would heal a knife cut in my hand, would heal a knife cut in my coat. It would heal a knife cut on this desk.
"Well," you'd say, "Brother Branham, medicine wasn't made for your coat or your desk. It was made for your body."
Well, perhaps then, I'd cut my hand this afternoon and fall down dead. And you'd take me down here to the morgue, and the undertaker's establishment, and there they would embalm my body with a fluid, would make me look natural for fifty years. You give me a shot of penicillin every day. Let the best doctors come from England, Germany, wherever they may, and doctor me for fifty years. That knife cut will be just exactly like it was cut the very first day.

L-14 Now, if medicine's made to heal the human body, why does it not heal it then? See, see? Then medicine was not made to heal human body or nothing.
Now, you say, "Well, Brother Branham, the life's gone out of your body." Now, we're on the line. Now, which is the healer then, medicine or life? And you tell me what life is; I'll show you what God is (See?), because God is Life. See? Medicine does not develop cells.
If I broke my arm, out here working on my car, and I ran down here to the doctor, which would be the logical thing to do, and say... Now, but this would not be logical: I'd say, "Doctor, say, heal my arm right quick, sir. I got to finish my car this afternoon."
He would look at me and say "What did you say, Mr. Branham?"
"Heal my arm, sir. You're a healer, aren't you? Heal my arm so that I might fix my car."
Why, he'd say, "You need mental healing." And that would be true. See?

L-15 He could not heal my arm, but he could set it where God could heal it. He cannot produce calcium and--and life to knit that bone together. Therefore, the doctor with his understanding sets a bone in place, but God does the healing. See?
Psalms 103:3 he said, "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgiveth all of thine iniquity; Who healeth all of thy diseases." So the Word of God can never fail. God is the Healer. You must... We must always bear that in mind: God is the Healer.
