Tee and Salvation. Thank you for expressing your views in ways I didn't even think, or could have the same way you have ! I am so grateful for your help because I was so close to buying the book. It is so easy to be deceived.
There is so much for me to comment on as I resonated with many things you said. I will write more later !
I spent most of my day on the Letusreason website reading through the review on the HC's. So for now, please let me leave you with this.. I think it ties in perfectly with what has been expressed as concerns by all of us. Here this website's review :
The Healing Codes – (link to article below)
Quantum Physics and The Healing Code
Dr. Loyd says that after his discovery of The Healing Codes in 2001, he spent a year and a half validating it with medical tests in every hospital. He says that The Healing Codes system applies quantum mechanics to the realm of health—physical and emotional (source):
“I go into all this because it is important to realize that The Healing Codes system is based on the way God created the world. In Genesis 1, it says God created all that is. He created energy. He set in motion the laws of physics, including quantum physics, the way DNA codes our cells, the way the planets move in their orbits—everything. And God made it all very good (Genesis 1:31)” (source).
Yes, it was all very good until sin came into the world, and mankind was corrupted in his nature. We cannot reverse the effect by our thinking by our own power. The fact is, we all grow old and die.
Dr. Loyd explains it as “a hidden fuse box on the body that we never knew was there before, it’s actually four healing centers that you activate very easily with your finger tips … and when you do that it heals the internal stress relating to whatever that issue is that you’re dealing with” (Interview by Jenell Walton: “ConnectingScience with Spirituality”
.
In a Healing Codes Testimonial webpage,it tells a story about a man namedLarryNapier who had a lesion on his arm that he didn't deal with for over a year. His doctor said it was basal cell carcinoma and told him to get it taken off before it metastasizes.
Napier explains: “I got a call from Alex on Monday morning saying, ‘We need to meet, we need to talk, I have some things I could use some help with from you, I need to let you know what I'm doing.’ I couldn't believe as he started to talk to me what he was doing. Because from my biblical background, what he was saying would give me a lot of problems. So as he described what he was doing, I pulled up my sleeve and showed him the lesion on my arm. I said, ‘Are you telling me that what you're doing could remove this?’ He said, ‘I can teach you what to do to get it removed.’ I said, ‘I need a couple of days to pray and then I'll let you know if I'm willing to do this.’
“So after a couple of days I called him. He gave me exercises to do and I started doing them faithfully. About the third day, I saw a change, and in about six weeks, it was totally gone. It had been there for over a year. I'd been praying about it for over a year and nothing had happened to change it, it was just getting worse. But in the six weeks time it was totally gone. And I watched it disappear on a daily basis, almost, right before my eyes.”“… Since then, I've had other things that have shown up. and just immediately, any kind of problem that comes up, I immediately turn and start dealing with these exercises.
“…. And at that particular point, I became a full believer in what was happening because I had experienced myself and then began a lot of extensive Bible study to help Alex explain in more detail from a Scripture basis what was happening.” (Larry Napier, Thomson Station, TN. Healing Code website)
Larry Napier (whom Alex Loyd calls his “mentor”
is stating that he can prove from Scripture that this is all biblical. In a radio interview, Alex states anything made can be used for good or bad:
“The core issue is what’s the source . . . and the fear and the concern that anybody would have when they hear about the codes and think about running energy back into the body, that that source is an evil source. . . I spent years. Wrote a whole piece in 1976 on God is all and in all and meditating on those two thoughts now since 76. And I told Alex and Hope the other day, we were together, I said I have been meditating on God is all since 1976 and I don’t think I have a thimble full of understanding of what that is. He is so awesome, he is some wonderful, he is so beyond. He says my thoughts are as high above your thoughts as the heavens are above the earth; that’s pretty far… here’s the essence for me “God is all” and he’s in all, there’s nothing that exists anywhere in the universe that he’s is not in. … and this aspect of every single thing that is created out here, all of creation … functions the exact same for everybody out here, no matter where you are and no matter what you believe. Creation functions according to absolute law. God’s the source of that. He’s the source of energy, he’s the source of life. When he takes his presence out of this particular body that I’m now in, there will no longer be energy flowing out of those fingers that no longer have life in them. But until he removes his presence, there’s going to be flowing out of my fingers. Now if energy is coming out of my fingers all day long and all my life, then the question become real simple. Whose the source of that energy. Do I take that energy and turn it back into my body and the instant I turn that energy back into my body, the energy that is God’s very presence in me and God’s presence that’s leaving me because God’s presence is always going out being replaced. Is that energy being turned back in become demonic? That’s not very sound thinking. . . . Every single thing works the same for everybody. Jesus made it absolutely clear, he said be like your heavenly Father who makes the sun shine and the rain to fall on the just and the unjust alike.” (interview with Diane Eble)
This is not a biblical view: God in all things He created? God is transcendent from creation. Did Napier ever consider that the energy may not be coming from our body? Did he not consider that other sources, not of God, may be at work? Napier is stating this energy is God’s presence. According to Scripture, God’s presence is the Holy Spirit and He ONLY lives in believers because of their accepting the gospel. Yet, he is claiming the Holy Spirit is in everyone (like a life force). Is God’s presence being replaced? With what? More presence? Why? Yes, the Father gives the necessities of life to all. But that is not the same thing as the panentheistic view that God is in all people.
Did Jesus made this absolutely clear that “Every single thing works the same for everybody.” Making this healing energy as a distribution for everyone is hardly what Jesus was referring to in Matt 5:44-46: v.45 ‘that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.”
Jesus is speaking about the basic necessities of life that God provides, not that he heals everyone, or that we can heal ourselves. Case in point, Jesus did not heal those who did not have faith.
Furthermore, Jesus spoke of that same rain judging those who do not base their lives on His words.
Matt 7:24-26: "Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: "and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. "Now everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.”
Do His words include teaching us how to use the Holy Spirit to heal ourselves by Loyd’s new energy discovery? No, I don’t see that.
Napier goes on to state:
“
All things physical work like all things physical for everybody. The other point is this, Satan is not an originator of anything, he’s only a counterfeiter. He has only one thing to work with - God-given equipment, that he says, use it this way, this time for this purpose. He is a counterfeiter, he’s a masquerader; he’s a deceiver, but he is not an originator of anything, so it becomes real simple where this energy flow within our body is being directed back in where the source of that energy and does it work the same for everybody no matter what they believe? Yes. Why? Because breathing does too.”(Diane Eble interview starting at 54.00)
Napier’s view that Satan does not invent things is nonsense. Yes, he counterfeits, but he is also a spiritual entrepreneur.
What Napier is saying is that this God energy (His presence) is in everyone. That is not Christian teaching no matter how many Bible words you may use to try to prove it is. That is a total distortion and misuse of God’s Word. God is all in all and he is all? This is not the biblical view. This is a panentheistic view of God - flowing through us and all things - and cannot be reconciled with the Bible. It is what we commonly find in the New Age, that everyone’s body is an energy dynamo, but somehow we become sick with this energy present, so we direct it flowing from our fingers back into the body to heal ourselves.
It is not biblical to manipulate this energy (God’s presence, which is the Holy Spirit). So why does it heal from the fingers and not while it is in the body?
Really, the biggest problem with The Healing Code and with any other New Age kind of healing method has to do with man’s heart. The Bible lays it out very simply, that man’s heart is full of sin and every evil thing. It is only when a man sees himself as that wretched sinner and realizes his need for a Savior and accepts Jesus Christ into his heart by faith as the needed Savior that God will live inside a person. It is not Biblical to manipulate energy (God’s presence, which is the Holy Spirit). Those without Christ have no healing energy within themselves, and those who have Christ know that it is not their own energy that heals from within them, rather than searching out for some quantum energy within, we look to the Great Healer to take care of us in both in health and in sickness.
