Spiritually, God is our savior to all the sins we had committed. If a person inflicted with severe disease, he or she looks for miracle.
Doctors can treat people too, but his power is limited. For some reason, they should not give false belief if the person who is terminally ill.

My personal experiences have taught me that the doctors of today are no better than the opposites of God... Satans? yes, probably that one. They know how to suck every drop of your blood and still get you nowhere close to getting healed.

Hello my friend Shavkat Ji,
Well, what you say is correct, with your permission, I wish to add further that not only sins, God also records and take into account all good works done by anyone. Then as per credit/debit, one's account runs, eiyther with suffering or with happiness. Why to blame God. Everyone, who has taken birth will terminate as per these credit/debit deeds. Doctors will perform as per tehir knowledge and lastly they will also Guide you to go to God.
May God bless You and have a great time

Doctors we're just like us, part of the creations of God and can never be compared to God. Of course they have the intelligence,the knowledge in that field,the experiences they need to become what they are but as what you've said there power is limited and it end there. Sometimes they also commit errors even in giving diagnosis to their patient's that's why some would seek second,third,opinion just to make sure that they are diagnosed correctly.

Doctors are human and although they might be trying to do their best, in no way can they be considered to be God, as they are not. Many times they are interested in just money and advancing their career, regardless of the people they are supposed to be treating!

Miracles do happen, but they are rare. Everyone has to die sometime, and IMO caregivers should try to prepare their terminally ill patients for that possibility as much as possible.

A doctors power is limited. If a patient is really sick they may want a miracle but they also need to be realist and see it for what it is. There is a chance and very few miracles happen. A terminally ill person may look for a miracle but they do need to be realist.

God not only has saved us from our sins through His Son our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ but He is also a God who heals all our infirmities. Too many people put too much faith in doctors who only practice medicine and too little faith in God.

Hi there, I don't really think that we can consider doctors as second to God as they are also humans. But if we're going to talk about ranking in here, I think that the Word of God can help us. A good verse could be find at Ephesians 5:23, which says:
For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
Thanks!

I believe in God and I believe in doctors too.
I believe it was God who gave doctors the knowledge, but true- it's limited because the skills and wisdom of doctors should also meet with the faith of the patient that God would heal him/her having the doctors as instruments..
People may differ in interpretation, but whenever someone tells me he/she won't go to clinic or hospital anymore because if God wants people to die, with or without seeing a doctor they will die. I immediately justify that everyone on earth (doctors) has knowledge from God, they would not exist if God won't let them do their expertise :)
So I myself and my family are God-believers too, but we also seek doctor.

Doctors studied to help us. THEY deserve all credits for that. If there really was a loving and caring god we wouldn't need doctors, there would be ne hunger, people didn't have to suffer, there would be no wars and the world would look beautiful because people were not allowed to throw their trash everywhere.

Hello Shavkat. I am so very glad to have these men and women that have spent years studying so they can help us with our health.
No Doctors are not second to the lord God. If they were next to God then they could save a lot more lives than they do. They could cure all the cancers that plague us these days. Doctors should not be put up on a pedestal because they don't know every thing about our bodies to cure so many illnesses. If they knew it all they could prevent so many illnesses. Doctors make decisions based on education. They can and do make mistakes. God doesn't.

Doctors can save lives but they cannot save somebody's soul. I feel that doctors are chosen by God to help people and give them a second chance, it seems that those who do not know God are looking for a miracle and blame doctors when they don't get one. They should rely on God but most people don't.

On every power or comparing to all powers , will power is very strong and powerful, if u have the will then everything can come down towards u, doctors trust that , so they try to say ur completely alright because the medicine they give that really works only if the person who takes it trusts and has will to live , if the per son is not having the will then how many medicines or doctors treatment would never work.
So we should have trust in ourselves, then god , then the people who work for us and at last but not the least what ever is to be going to be done or happen will be happen though many great words and great statement are given, becox we can never prove any thing,its just we try to follow something and expect to get the same return ,but every one have a different return for the work they do.
Doctors or the person who is ill are humans, God is something which is not human, so we just try our selves to get a hope that okay god is some one there who is great and powerful who can do extraordinary and miracles in our lives, so we try living with such a hope.
Sometimes our hope comes true some times that comes to be false, so when it comes to be true we try to thank the god , when it is false we try shouting at god.Just we react to the incidents and situations , we just try playing ,but we can not do anything more than that.

A doctor is a tool---a human tool, you use to correct yourself. God is Our Father, who lets us correct ourselves---using the human-tools if we have to.

No the doctor is not a God ! God is God! The doctor is an instrument use God to cure and heal sick people. Faith can move mountains , God can heal , God is a doctor but doctors can never be God .
