Dr. Alvin Hwang (Neurophysiology, Vice President of WCDN)


WCDN's 10th International Christian Medical Conference was held in Toluca, Mexico on June 14th and 15th, 2013.
Approximately 350 doctors and medical professionals from 24 countries attended. At Toluca, various special speeches
as well as divine healing cases were presented. From among them, let's look into Dr. Alvin Hwang's special presentation and testimonial.


The case of healing with faith of calcification that caused a great deal of pain

In March, 2012, Lucy C. Hwang, my daughter, had severe pain in her left wrist and had a medical check-up. At that time she was diagnosed with calcification. The calcified stones damaged the tissues around them which caused her excruciating pain. The MRI scan taken the next day showed that her triangular fibrocartilage complex had been ruptured. Her condition was serious because the pain was as severe as that caused by fractures. Despite the pain, her determination to get divine healing was unwavering.
In order to be healed, she attended the Divine Healing Meeting held at the Manmin Prayer Center, which is an affiliated center of Manmin Central Church. Listening to the center president, Mrs. Boknim Lee's messages, she discovered that she had been lukewarm in her faith and began to repent thoroughly. During the next meeting, she received greater grace and repented fully and completely. Then, an amazing work took place.
All her pains were gone when she received Mrs. Lee's prayer with the handkerchief on which Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed (Acts 19:11-12). This could happen because Lucy did not give up in the middle and demolished the wall of sins against God by thorough repentance. So, let's now examine the principles in detail that we need to know to receive divine healing.

The Principles for Divine Healing to Occur, by Lucy's healing case

Firstly, she unchangingly believed God.
If she had not relied on God until the end, she could not have received her answer. Lucy has witnessed countless people having been healed of incurable and terminal diseases through Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer since the very early years of her childhood. Thus, she could apply it to her faith.
Secondly, the wall of sins between God and her were destroyed.
At first, she could not understand why she had such a disease. But while listening to the message in the Divine Healing Meeting, she discovered her problem and repented thoroughly. It allowed for her to destroy the wall of sins between her and God.
Thirdly, she prayed until faith worthy to receive answers came to her heart.
She did not cease to pray until she received answers with faith according to 1 Thessalonians 5:17 "Pray without ceasing." She believed that God would give her the answer to her prayer at the best time, and she just continued to pray.
It also gave me an opportunity to have a closer look at her life. She had been leading a busy life studying for tests in school, doing her assignments, taking part in extracurricular activities, and keeping up with part time jobs. Of course, she did not stop praying nor did she commit any specifically grave sins. However, without her realizing it, she had lost her first love for the Lord and her fervor for sanctification had become lukewarm. Finally, she did realize it and she felt God's heart and love while listening to the messages delivered in Manmin Prayer Center.
From that moment on, she was changed into a new person. She realized that she has to love God foremost of all no matter how busy she is or how difficult her situation is, she must not stay at a point or backslide in growth of faith, and she put the first priority on her life for God.

God gives answers in accordance with each one's measure of faith

1 John 2:12-14 likens the level of spiritual faith to man's growth process: faith of little children, of children, of young men, and that of fathers. God measures each one's level of faith and gives answers to them based on the level.
God is moved and gives answers when new believers show even a little bit of faith. He guides them to meet and quickly experience Him. As we grow up in faith, however, God gives us answers according to justice.
Fellowship with God involves being obedient to Him. It means that we should want to know God all the more with all our hearts and we should keep His Word with our faith and love for Him. But some people have not been healed, lived with diseases, or died though they said they prayed and repented. The cases carry various kinds of special reasons. One of them is the spiritual cord linking them with parents, children, or even a spouse who commit sins.
As said, varied principles are applied to bringing down answers from God in His justice: faith, repentance, prayer, spiritual growth, and spiritual cords. But we must not feel discouraged. God said in Isaiah 49:15, "Can a woman forget her nursing child and have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, but I will not forget you."
Dr. Chauncey Crandall, a renowned interventive cardiologist, gave a presentation of a case in WCDN's 4th International Christian Medical Conference held in Miami, USA. A patient, who had actually died as the result of a massive heart attack, returned to life when Dr. Chauncey Crandall prayed for him in the Palm Beach Cardiovascular Clinic in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida in the U.S. This story was reported by FOX News nationwide.
The patient however, was not a Christian. In this case his family had prayed for his salvation during the previous 20 years. The prayer enabled him to be revived and accept Jesus Christ. We could feel the love of God who desires all men, without losing any single soul, to reach salvation. Such powerful works of God have been taking place in every corner of the world.
