Brethren & Co-Workers Letter - January 01, 1970 - Garner Ted Armstrong - January 01, 1970

Garner Ted Armstrong

Pursuant to your letter of August 10, I would like to state briefly our position regarding the Administering of oral or other vaccines. As you may know, we do believe thoroughly in the Bible doctrine of Divine Healing. We are not, however, a Church that unduly emphasizes healing, nor do we make it a primary part of our message to the world in our world-wide evangelistic effort. Privately, however, and as a Church, we encourage members to trust in God for their protection and their healing should sickness or disease occur. If a member is weak in faith, there is no arbitrary decision made for him, nor is there coercion by any member of the Church upon any other member as to whether he seeks the aid of organized medicine. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
