SID: Hello SidRoth your investigative reporter.I find this very, very hard to believe.My guest, his name is Jerry Baysinger; I interviewed him on the radio.Now Jerry, you told me that there was a rabbi listening.You didn’t just tell me there was a rabbi listening to us.You said this was a rabbi that had cancer,I believe.And not only did you tell me there was a rabbi listening that had cancer, but you told me his first name.You told me his last name.How did you know this?
JERRY: I just knew the…just the presence of the Lord,through the Holy Spirit.It was just a knowing inside of me.
SID: But it wasn’t always that way.
JERRY: No.
SID: You had something that no one ever wants to hear.No one wants to get a death sentence from their doctor.But I’ve had friends that have had cancer of the liver, and that’s pretty much a death sentence.What did the doctors say exactly to you?
JERRY: Well I had gone to the doctor because I had a growth on my mouth that I thought was a wart.And I went in to have the dermatologist burn it off or whatever they did.And he looked at me and he saw some other places that didn’t look right so he wanted biopsies.And so when he did the biopsies, they came back malignant melanomas.And so he wanted to operate immediately to remove a large portion of my lower lip, my upper left ear, a big place out of my nose, my left lower eyelid, and a place out of my left forearm.
SID: Weren’t you kind of fearful over this?
JERRY: No,I really wasn’t prepared to hear something like that at all.I had just thought that they were going to freeze it or burn it off and that would be the end of it;and I’d go my merry way.And so they went to put me in the hospital to operate on me, to do the surgeries.And they sent me to my family doctor to have blood work done preparatory to me going in the hospital.
And they came back and said that I had something wrong with my liver functions, so they asked me to come back the next day.They drew blood again and I still had something wrong with my liver function.They tested me for AIDS, and mononucleosis, and hepatitis;and all of that came back negative.And so they sent me to the hospital to have biopsies done on my liver.And then the doctor told me “I have good news and bad news.”And I said “Give me the good news and he said I don’t think you need all the surgery they want to do.”And I was greatly relieved and I thought well good, but “What’s the bad news?” And he said “Well, your biopsies indicate you have advanced liver cancer, and you’ll be dead in a month.” He said “I wouldn’t waste my time…”
SID: What kind of doctor says something like that? That’s awful!Good news and bad news?That’s a joke!You must have been a little, I don’t know.What you were you?
JERRY: I was spaced out by the time they told me; when he told me I had advanced liver cancer,I just had a pit in my stomach and the hair on the back of my neck stood up.And I just kind of felt hot all over.It started all the way up to my head.And he said “You need to get your affairs in order.”He said “I wouldn’t waste my time with the surgery.It won’t help you because you’ll be dead in a month.”And I said “Is there anything they can do?” And he said “I’m sorry there’s nothing they can do.”He said “Go home and get your affairs in order.”
SID: So when you left the doctor what’s going on in your mind?
JERRY: My…the first thing that was going on in my mind is;I had just been married four years and what’s going to happen to my wife? It wasn’t so much about me, it was about my wife.I’m very much in love with her and I was just devastated.I thought somebody else is going to be spending years with my wife instead of me.And I went home and I couldn’t tell her for a long time.And I finally had to tell her.
SID: Sure, I mean the clock’s ticking.
JERRY: Yes, and I went to church every week like a lot of people do and doing God a favor.And I went to church that weekend and asked the elders of the church to pray for healing for me and anoint me for healing.And I gave my life to JesusChrist as my Lord and Savior.And I didn’t know it at that instant, but the Lord healed me.I didn’t feel anything like a lot of people do.They say they feel heat in their body.I didn’t feel anything, but what happened was in about two or three weeks, my melanomas started going away all by themselves.And, although I was still in a tremendous amount of pain with the liver cancer; and I continued to get worse and worse and worse;and I got down to 86 pounds.And during that time,God had given me Psalms 103 verses 2 and 3.It says “Bless the Lord oh my soul, and forget not all his benefits; who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases.”
SID: That’s a very inclusive thing.I mean it’s everything!All of your diseases, all of your sins, but the truth is people that love God are dying every day – prematurely.
JERRY: That’s right and I said to the Lord, “LordI gave my life to you what are you trying to tell me here? And are you going to heal me?” And the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said “I’ve already healed you.”And I said “You could have fooled me,” because I was getting sicker by the day.And I was getting so weak.I own a furniture repair business and I was getting so weak that I couldn’t even pick my toolboxes up to carry them.And I would go to somebody’s house on a service call, and tell them that God’s word says I’m healed; that I have liver cancers and melanomas.And they’d look at me and say “Well you don’t look healed.”And I’d say “Well I don’t feel healed either.”
SID: How much did you weigh again?
JERRY: 86 pounds.
SID: And you’re working and you’re in pain.And you’re telling them I’m fine…there’s something wrong with your eyes?
JERRY: I’d tell them it’s impossible for God to lie.It says right here in the Bible“….it’s impossible for God to lie” and he says I’m healed by the stripes of Jesus so I’m healed.And then people would say “Well I have ‘this and this’ the matter with me” and I said “Let me pray for you.God will heal you too.”And I would pray for people.
SID: Tell me the first person you remember praying for.
JERRY: The very first person I remember praying for was a young man about college age.And he went to church with us and he was in the hospital with a blood disease and he was dying.And my pastor gave me permission to go pray for him.And I went and laid hands on him, and told him how God had healed me of liver cancer; and gave him my testimony and God healed him too!
SID: How many years has it been since you were diagnosed with cancer with one month to live?
JERRY: Ten years.
SID: You look pretty healthy to me.
JERRY: I feel pretty healthy.
SID: Now I’m curious.God told you you were healed in his Word.But if you hadn’t agreed with God’s Word, do you think someone else would be with your wife right now?
JERRY: I do; because the people I pray for; the people that believe get healed.The people that don’t believe don’t get healed.It’s not necessarily a choice of God’s to heal; because God already did everything that needed to be done for us to receive our healing.It’s up to us to receive it and believe, just like salvation.You know we can’t be saved unless we come and believe.
SID: Tell me about, I find this almost hard to believe.In Africa, there was a woman without eyeballs?
JERRY: Right.
SID: Tell me about that.
JERRY: A young lady brought her up to me.I thought she was a child because she was short, but she was an older lady.And she had given her life to JesusChrist and the Muslims had taken their thumbs and poked both her eyeballs out.And all she had was eye sockets.And I felt such sadness and compassion rise up in me.And I put my hands on her eyes and I just stood there and I said “Jesus show her your mercy.”And I stood there for about ten minutes with my hands on her eyes, and I took my hands off and she had eyeballs,but she still couldn’t see.
SID: Wait, she had eyeballs, but there were no eyeballs!They were pushed, they were just pulled out almost.And you could see the eye?Did you see the pupil? Did you just see the white?
JERRY: Before she had nothing but holes and afterwards I could see the pupils and everything; perfectly formed eyes.
SID: But she couldn’t see?
JERRY: But she could not see.
SID: Well that’s still pretty good.
JERRY: But it’s not good enough for God.
SID: What happened?
JERRY: So I put my hands back on her face again, and I stood there for about fifteen minutes just praising God.I didn’t pray for her.I didn’t ask God to put eyeballs in her,I just said “God show her your mercy; show her your mercy.Thank you Lord for the mercy you’re showing her.”And I took my hands off a second time and she saw.
SID: How do you have such fervent…?I’m not hearing 99% faith in God’s Word.You have a 100%!How do you have that?
JERRY: That’s simple!The Bible says it is impossible for God to lie.If it is impossible for God to lie and it’s written in his Word, then we can have what he says we can have, if we’ll believe.
SID: Listen there are…I know I’m speaking to so many people right now.I’m speaking to you.Perhaps you have cancer.Or perhaps you have diabetes.Or perhaps you have horrible pain in your body.Or perhaps your back is hurting you.Or your neck is hurting you.Or you have migraine headaches, or heart trouble.There’s even a woman that has severe diarrhea.Could all these people be healed right now?
JERRY: Absolutely.
SID: All of them?
JERRY: There’s only one requirement.
SID: What?
JERRY: “Fear not.Believe only.”
SID: Sounds too simple.
JERRY: That’s why everybody misses it.We try to make it something hard.God makes things easy for us.You know we can’t work to get salvation.All we can do is come to him and receive what he has already done on the cross for us.
SID: I tell you this.“Let every man be a liar, but God’s Word is true.”Get ready for your miracle.We’ll be right back after this word.Don’t you dare go away!
