[QUOTE="MikeBigg, post: 64056138, member: 260752"] Well, maybe there is some double-mindedness at work here. I have a passion to see people healed, especially unsaved people. I think Wigglesworth does have something that we can learn from. There is actually something to learn from the punching (I don't recollect reading about kicking, though I haven't read everything) and healing. I'll try to explain what we can learn from it, but please don't see it as me thinking it is the right thing to do. In the Bible people are healed in may different ways. Hands layed on, commands, shadows, washing etc. There is also a link between authority and healing. Jesus gave the 12 and the 72 authority then sent them out. What we have in the different ways of healing as different expressions of the authority. I heard of a guy with a fairly significant healing ministry, try this out at a Bible week. He decided to call all the young people forward with ecxema and proceded to squirt them with a water pistol in the name of Jesus. Several of the young people got healed there and then. I'm sure you won't approve of that guy's actions, but I mention to show that we can choose how we exercise the authority. I think that Wigglesworth expressed his authority for healing by punching the tumour (I've only read of it happening once and that was when a woman had a tumour, but was struggling to get healed. The punch took her out of a religious state of mind allowing the healing to take place). The woman did get healed. Other expressions of healing Wigglesworth used were standing a dead body up against a wall and commanding it to live. Which it did. That's not very respectful to the dead, is it. :) I hope you can see a difference and maybe understand my position. Certainly, I think it is a world apart from calling an respected Christian a "senile old skunk" just because he has a different view. This is kind of derailing this thread - feel free to start a new thread - I'll suggest a title: "The senile Mr Bigg is inconsistent and heretical" :D Regards, Mike [/QUOTE]
