Faith Death

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,341869,00.html

The mother of an 11-year-old girl who died of untreated diabetes said Wednesday that she did not know her daughter was terminally ill as she prayed for her to get better.

Madeline Neumann died Sunday from a treatable form of diabetes.

…an autopsy determined Madeline died from diabetic ketoacidosis, an ailment that left her with too little insulin in her body.

She had probably been ill for about 30 days, suffering symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, excessive thirst, loss of appetite and weakness…

The family does not belong to an organized religion or faith, Leilani Neumann said.

“We just believe in the Bible, that’s all,” she said. “This is our faith.”

Her husband added that, “We believe the word of God and live according to its precepts.”

I once heard Todd Bentley teach that a person’s lack of faith can forfeit a healing. He used the example of an individual being healed of some malady - I believe it was cancer - by a faith healer, and then being told the next day by a physician that the cancer was still present in the person’s body. Bentley argued that the individual now needed to decide who he would trust: man or God. If that individual allowed the physician to sow doubt in his heart, he would forfeit the healing.

So, when Benny, or Todd, or any number of other “faith healers” proclaim a healing over you, and it does not come to pass, it’s your fault.

Bentley & Co. are directly responsible for this girl’s unnecessary death. Anyone who teaches “God vs. Medicine” played a part and should repent. Shame on you, Todd.

The dead girl’s mother posted twice on the above site. This tragedy should awaken us to the necessity of local church membership. We need one another to bring correction and rebuke when we stray from the faith into all kinds of sillinesses that sometimes have very serious consequences.
