Sid: …brand new book “Supernatural Healing” over thirty years of investigative reporting or the greatest miracles and the greatest ways of accessing God’s power that I’ve been able to analyze and investigate.  And I’ve been blessed to meet these people; I mean it is outrageous some of these miracles, but that is normal; I want you to be normal.  And one chapter has to do with the Lord’s Supper and I have the man that God gave the revelation, you may have heard Perry Stone teach on it.  He’s the one that got the revelation that started telling Perry about it.  His name is Dr. John Miller; he’s a chiropractor and a Bible teacher.  And so many people have been healed through understanding the teaching of communion.  John how did you originally get interested in the Lord’s Supper as medicine?

Dr. John Miller:  Well, I was raised in a Christian home all of my grandfather’s were preachers on my mother’s side.  And I went right from High School into Chiropractic College, so I’d spent my entire adult life learning how to get sick people well.  And so then I started studying the Bible to see what the Bible had to say about getting sick people well and ran into the seven ways in the New Testament to be healed.  And for some reason I was drawn specifically to communion and it’s a deep subject, it’s never ending, God keeps showing me more and more about it.

Sid:  One the things I find fascinating is that you did research of the Jewish roots of Passover and research on the Messiah concept with in Judaism within the scriptures.  You found some amazing things in Isaiah 53, tell me about them.

Dr. John Miller:  Well, the first thing we find in Isaiah 53 is that Jesus did a threefold atonement for a three part man.  Paul said, “I pray that your spirit, soul and body be preserved blameless until the coming of the Lord.  We know what the body is; theologians say that the soul is the mind, will and the emotion; that’s your mental.  And your spirit is what gives life to the body and can communicate with God and goes back to God that gave it.  So at Calvary Jesus was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, that’s your sin, that’s your spiritual salvation.  The chastisement of our peace was upon Him, that’s your mental healing; and with His strips we are healed.  He took the beating for our healing so, actually the typology of communion goes all the way back to Genesis as you find any major principal in the Bible, you can find it all the way back to Genesis.  Where, when man sinned he became aware of his nudity, not that nudity per say is a sin, but it was the sign that he had sinned and God had to shed blood and sacrifice flesh to bring him animal clothes to make a covering for the fact that he had sinned.  And that was the first typology we have looking forward to the cross where Jesus was nude on the cross and covered with His blood making atonement for our sin.  Also in the garden, there was the tree of life that if you ate of it after you sinned you would live forever, in other words it would reverse the sin that eating of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil instituted.  So God had to drive them out of the garden so they could not eat of the tree of life; and all theologians say that the tree of life represent Jesus.  So that’s another picture of how when we eat him it undoes the sin curse of death.  Then in Egypt when God sent Moses to get the Israelites out of Egypt, they tried ten miracles and that didn’t work; that represents the Ten Commandments the law, the law didn’t save anybody, it only condemned them because they couldn’t keep it.  So they had to turn to the blood of the lamb over the door posts, which is another type of Jesus shedding his blood at Calvary.  And when they ate the flesh of that lamb they were healed, David says in Psalms they came out with silver and gold and not one infirmed one among them.  So after that for fifteen hundred years, God mandated that they keep the Passover that was to remind the Israelites and teach their children how God delivered them from Egypt.  So that’s looking forward to the cross again.  In the wilderness God sent manna down, which was a type of the body of Christ, Jesus said three times in John 6 “Your father’s did eat manna in the wilderness and are dead, but I tell you I’m the real bread that came down from heaven and unless you eat my flesh you have no life in you.”  So the bread of communion are the bread, the manna was a type of eating Jesus, the bread of communion.

Sid:  I am reminded of the scripture that there was none feeble among them. 

Dr. John Miller:  Yes, and that word feeble in the Hebrew means infirmed and particularly in the legs.  And the people eating the manna got tired of it and they said “Our soul does loath the light bread, the manna.  So God sent fiery serpents and bite them and they began to die and they said, oh, Moses we’ve sinned against you and God.  Pray that He would stop this, so God said, “Moses take a pole and put a brass serpent on it,” representing Jesus on the cross at Calvary, he was made to be sin with our sin.  And everybody that looked on it was healed.  So we have typology after typology in the Old Testament all looking forward to Jesus on the cross.  And then after the cross, it looks back, Peter said “The sprinkling of the blood a fresh,”  We are to eat the bread and drink the cup to remember Jesus is a very interesting thing in Luke the 22 chapter verse fifteen, Jesus is going to have communion with the disciples and he said unto them, “With desire, I have desires to eat this Passover with you before I suffer, for I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof until it be fulfilled in the Kingdom of God, take this and divide it among yourselves for I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God.  And then He took the bread and gave thanks and break it” and you see, He said, “I have desired with desire.” And I ask my friend Hal Lindsay, he’s not only a prophecy teacher but he’s a Greek scholar, he looked that word up for me, he said that’s the strongest word in the Greek language for wanting to do something with desire, I have desired.  What’s the Passover Seder meal made of?  It’s made up of the Lamb and the bitter herbs and all these.  Jesus said, “With desire, I have desired to eat this with you before I suffer,” this was the night He was arrested.  And he skipped right over the Passover meal and went right to the bread and the wine and said “This is my body which is broken for you.”  So when we come to the communion table it’s interesting to note that Jesus is more desirous to meet us at the communion table than we have been to meet him there.

Sid:  You know in your teaching in the book it’s so overwhelming, you’re the first person to bring to my attention that communion can be progressive, you progressively are healed.  It’s like your medicine, you’re progressively healed.  Where’s a lot of people think that well, I guess I wasn’t healed.  But so many people are getting healed through taking communion that I would love you to lead us in communion right now.

Dr. John Miller:  Okay, well take the bread.   Father in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, we ask that you sanctify this unleavened bread, as the body of the Lord Jesus Christ that took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses according to your word.  And the body that was beaten with 39 stripes for our healing and as we partake of this bread that represents the body of Christ we receive healing in every organ, every cell and every function in our bodies and we give you the praise the glory, now eat.  Now Father we come to you with the wine that represents the blood of Jesus, as we hold it up and ask you to sanctify it as the blood of Jesus we recognize we are holding the most powerful substance in the world.  For all other power substances like, nuclear bombs and all can only destroy life, but the life that is in the blood of Jesus gives life and gives it eternally.  And right now we receive the blood of Jesus and we receive forgiveness for all of our sins in Jesus Name.  Hallelujah.

Sid:  Your know what I’m thinking that a lot of people are putting food together and water because they just don’t know what’s going to be happening on planet earth.  I think the number one thing they should put together is some wine and bread and they’ve got it all.

Dr. John Miller:  The Christians and the Jewish population is going to have to turn to the blood and the body of Christ to get through these days as the governments collapse and the health care systems collapse.  And no matter what medicine it is or what nutrition that you’re taking…

Sid:  Oh I’m sorry we’re out of time…
