Healing - How to use this section
How to use the Healing section.
The Healing section is designed to give members a better understanding of the Healing doctrine of the ICG.
The section is divided into three areas:
This is the button array you see on the
homepage of the Healing section.
Our suggestion is you go through the survey of the doctrine before using
the Bible Study and Resource Center. The survey is designed to
give you through grasp of this largest of our doctrines.
The buttons above take you to the homepages for each of those sub-sections.
All the pages related to those sub-sections are accessible from those
homepages.
Survey of the Doctrine
In the Survey of the Doctrine, we breakout the doctrine into its
several sub-subjects and key statements. Your study of each one
will give you a commanding grasp of the whole doctrine. The main,
primary page of the Survey of the Doctrine is
here. The doctrine is broken out into 146 separate parts [usually
a single paragraph or two]. Each part is followed by a
table giving the sub-subject, such as "God vs. Medical Science" or
"Member responsibility" and the key statement matching that topic.
On this page, one can read through the doctrine and each of its
sub-subjects as they come up in the doctrine.
From these sub-subjects, we have made other pages with which you may
study the topics piecemeal. The first is the "sub-subjects
by paragraph." This page simply takes the
primary survey page and removes the doctrine and leaves the key
statements in order, by paragraph number [1-146].
We have the same sub-subjects by paragraph page arranged
by
subjects so that you may see all the key statements of the doctrine
by these sub-subjects. This page has a
printer-friendly and
pdf versions for those desiring to study the doctrine with
hardcopies.
Next, we gather all the sub-subjects into separate pages. One page
holds all key statements on "Godly purpose". Another holds all key
statements on "Cause of sickness" and so on. All these pages are
accessed from a single-page directory
here. This page is called the, "Sub-subject
Homepage."
We finish up this section with a copy of the doctrine with links to
every scripture referenced. This page is entitled:
Bible Study
The
Bible Study for the Healing doctrine is set up just like the
Correspondence Course. The Healing doctrine was not originally
made a part of the Correspondence Course because of its size.
The user reads through the doctrine, then answers a series of True and
False questions found
at the bottom of the same page. There is also a
printer-friendly version of the questions
here.
The answers come in three different versions:
The Bible Study sub-section is then finished up
with a
Check-Text page. Here, the user, can
reference where in the doctrine the question and answer originated.
At the top of the Check-Text page is a table linking the number of the
test question with the numbered paragraph of the doctrine.
Resource Center
This sub-section brings together all the text, audio and video we have
on the subject of Healing. It incorporates links to the Bible
Study and Survey of the Doctrine sub-sections. Three notable pages
in this sub-section are:
Healing Checklist
This is a proactive
checklist compiled from the doctrine that covers the times
before and after the sickness or injury arises.
Overall Conclusions
This page is our
conclusions and comments from the entire Healing section.
Doctrine vs. PEBs
his document makes clear
distinction between the doctrines of God which bind us together
as a congregation and the many "personal elements of belief"
[PEB] each of us hold as part of our individual faith before
God.
