Faith and Health

Welcome to the Faith and Health  blog.  I am Dr. Bob Braile and  I am a Christian, Husband, Father, and Chiropractor (in that order), who has been greatly blessed by our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ. I, and many of my colleagues who also feel their lives have been blessed by Christ, have decided to not hide our beliefs behind some man-made unwritten rule that says that you can not express your beliefs in a professional healthcare setting.

This blog, and the newsletter that coincides with it are designed to put the science of healthcare to the test of biblical truths. In future issues we will discuss what is real science and what is pseudo-science. We will look to see if there are biblical confirmations, or contradictions for the health care practices of today.

We believe Genesis 1-26 when it says, “Then God said, Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us.” We believe that God made us in his image, not to be sick and suffer through a life less than He intended for us.

We also believe that science should not be in conflict with our faith. The fact that a process is scientific does not mean that it is not from God, as it is He who set the universe up to work the way it does. However, in man’s own arrogance, we sometimes use pseudo-science to think that we know better than the creator how to care for our bodies.

Some, if not many of the health care views I hold, you may not agree with. That is alright with me. You need to follow the path that you believe you are led to follow. As for me, this is the path l will follow.

I can suggest for starters, that you read something I was inspired to write many hears ago when I first was lead to the Lord. It is called " The Power That Made the Body, Heals the Bod y". The sub-title is, " For all Those Who Consider Themselves Christians and Don't Believe that God Creates Junk ." I believe you will find this of interest, and it will give you a good insight as to where I am coming from. 

All I ask is that you keep an open mind.
