QUESTION: May the person referred to in the preceding question continue
to lay hands on the sick?
ANSWER: Laying on of hands in the New Testament was the practice of those
who had been endowed with miraculous ability. Since the gifts have long since
passed away (I Corinthians 13: 8-11), no reason exists today for the laying on of
hands. This notwithstanding, as stated in the answer to the preceding question,
the person in question should be assigned no responsibility in the church until
repentance is forthcoming!
