Church Father Tertullian and the Origin of Sickness

A slide from a series of Bible studies on the fact that God does not send sickness and disease and that it was never His idea. Later Judaism before Christ now the early church believe that sickness originated with God. On the contrary, Satan is given full credit for this.

Sadly, there are some in the church who believe that God either personally inflicts sickness on people as punishment or that He "blesses" people with it for His glory and to help build their character. God does not use satanic tools born of evil to do His holy work in us.

Acts 10:38 says, "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him." We need to recognize, as Scripture does, and as those who followed in the footsteps of the apostles did, that sickness originates from evil entities. Sickness must be RESISTED by God's power and NOT EMBRACED.
