What Use is Leprosy?
1 Attachment(s)
A question I am often asked is "Why does God give us diseases?" The usual reply is in line with John:9:3 Jesus answered,Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. In other words, God does things to show that He can do them.
We know, for instance that God cures people of leprosy: 2Ki:5:3 the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy. and M't:8:2: And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him,saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. M't:8:3: And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him,saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. Then I hear, "What is the point of leprosy?"fortunately, God has revealed the answer unto mankind: Quote:
God gave us leprosy so that we could cure people with bad livers. It took us a few thousand years to work out God's Bounty, but that is a mere twinkling of the eye in God's terms. Now bearing, in mind that God told Moses how to deal with leprosy (Lev 13 & 14) you may ask why God didn't tell Moses about the partial cellular reprogramming ability of the leprosy-causing bacteria. My answer would be "Who's to say that He didn't, but then Moses forgot?" I asked the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, England, fora comment from a Christian perspective but there was no one available. In the meantime, a spokesman for the American Society of the Welfare of Armadillos,said that it was encouraging news and that his members were glad to help God in any way. |

I wouldn't put it past a Scotsman to try and find a cheap method of enhancing their ability to over indulge in alcohol. Russians, at least, have the decency to drug and steal the livers of humans. And since most of their It's really like the parable of the talents, isn't it? Some people hide the wealth* that God entrusted them with, while others work hard and apply their abilities to turn a profit from those not putting their resources to good use. * I don't know where in the body people hide their livers. You would have to ask a doctor--or a Russian. |

And even if they were good luck understanding whatever came out of their mouths. They have been forever disobedient to their English monarchs and even though they claim to speak "English" I think they are actually speaking something else as a form of mockery. |
