LAYING OF HANDS AND ANOINTING THE SICK

We believe in the laying of hands and anointing the sick on the head in the Name of the Lord and that prayer of faith shall save the person - James 5:14-16; Mark 16:17-18.

But we do not use any other method which are not in accordance to Bible teaching. Such traditions include sanctification of water for the sick to drink, or to perform special washing for the sick in the following river, the use of robe or garment or to carry small stick in form of cross about or the candle and such things.

They are not Biblical. The order of the Lord is that we should heal the sick free of charge - Matt. 10:8. We do not receive money or change money before we offer prayer for anybody. All those using the above materials for healing shall perish with them - Mark 16:18; James 5:14; Matt. 10:7-8; Mark 6:13.
