what does the bible say?
Doctors prescribe drugs to relieve pain and provide healing—both biblically compatible goals. Our physical ailments are caused as a result of sin in the world, just as our spiritual ailments. By healing people, Jesus exhibited God's compassion. He is often referred to as the Great Physician and will provide the ultimate healing of the entire creation (Romans 8:18–22). When we think about the rightness of using prescription drugs, it is not so much the drugs that are an issue but how we use them. We should seek medical advice, only use drugs legally, and remain cognizant of possible side effects. Doctors will alert you of potential risks and dangers. Overall, the proper use of prescription drugs can bring healing to illness, both acute and chronic, but it is God who ultimately provides the healing.
