Said, "He come down in the room, and picked me up, and put me up before His throne, and set me down. He said, 'Son,' He said, 'I'm giving you the gift of Divine healing.'" Quickly, that's wrong. There is no such a thing as the gift of Divine healing. There's no such a thing in the Scripture. "And He said, 'I'm giving you power to open blind eyes, to unstop deaf ears, to cast out demons, to make the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the lame to walk.'" And he come back to earth, and so forth, and do this.[2]

Now, if—if you were sick and I said, "I have a gift of Divine healing." A gift of Divine healing is nothing but faith in Divine healing. That's all it is: have faith.

Now, that don't make them a Divine Healer no more than it makes the man that believes in salvation a—a Divine Saviour.[4]
