Cancer treatment choices

Yes, though the number one issue to consider is spiritual state. Diseases like cancer come from a lack of spiritual health that ultimately manifests in the physical. These are things like lies that one has believed. For example, I have a friend with a current case of breast cancer. God has shown her that the cause was her response to having never had physical children, and that the best way to treat it is to work on believing the truth about who he has called to be. That isn't to say that there isn't a place for food based medicine. Another friend of ours was shown to eat a lot of lemons for her breast cancer. And a third friend shared what was going on with her acquaintance at another fellowship. The lady who also had breast cancer felt that God was showing her what to eat and do to heal herself and her tumors were shrinking to the amazement of her doctor. But the doctor said he didn't feel good about not giving her any treatments and convinced her to undergo either radiation or chemotherapy, I'm not sure which. Soon her tumors returned. Unfortunately with cancer in particular, modern medicine tends to work contrary to God's way, which is to support the immune system he designed to fight cancer. Faith in God is also critical for healing and this may have been a component of the results as the lady may have ceased to put her trust in God after the doctor's pressure to look to the medical world for her salvation.

Sorry it took me so long to respond. It's been crazy around my life. The homeopathic treatments revolve around diet, life style changes, and natural herbs and foods to help the body overcome the cancer growing in it. The idea is by giving the body the rest, nutrients, and taking the stressors, chemicals, and foreign things like processed foods out of the mix, the body can aright itself and kill the cancer cells on its own. Cancer Centers of America does a lot with this method.

Ballaurena...not always a lack of spiritual health. We can't paint it black and white. The Lord told me that I was going to go through this cancer. He also said it was for HIS glory and that I would come through it. There is a reason for each trial we go through. So for our correction...some for a witness of GOD's glory. Us mere humans does see the whole picture...so we can't judge the reasons unless GOD tells us.

I am happy to consider that, but be careful about presuming that things are mutually exclusive - Cancer can be BOTH from a lack of spiritual health AND something that God will reveal his glory in. And realize that what I said isn't about moral judgment on you or anyone else for being sick. The fact is that none of us is so spiritually pure as to live forever in our current form. Cancer is just one form of physical decay that comes from our spiritual inadequacy. And our spiritual inadequacy is basically inevitable. The point is to be made aware so you can seek out with God the spiritual health that is essential for physical health.

May God indeed be glorified in you and your story!

Actually cancer is trying to be an immortal cell, not really a form of decay but a defect that ignores the self-destruct mechanism of cells when they get to damaged.
