Cured of Cancer

 

Cured of Cancer
A BBC Report

In September 2003 Felicity Corbin-Wheeler was given between five weeks and six months to live with pancreatic cancer. Now fully recovered, she attributes her cure to vitamin B17 and her Christian faith. Michelle Moffat went to meet her.

In September 2003 Felicity Corbin-Wheeler was struck down, literally overnight, with terminal pancreatic cancer and given less than six months to live. The story of her recovery, based on vitamin B17 and her Christian faith, is the stuff of miracles.

Felicity is just one of thousands people who are claiming that vitamin B17, extracted from seeds and kernels such as those found in apricots, is a God-given cure for cancer first described in the book of Genesis.

Talking Faith with Felicity

MM: Can you tell me a little about the background to your faith and how it's been part of your life and when perhaps first you felt that you had a calling to follow God?

FCW: Yes I'd always been a Christian and my father had been a Church Warden for many years in South Africa, and again in London. I have been a member of this church [Gouray] for 30 years and decided to become a Reader and train for full time ministry which I'm now doing and really feel that my life is being fulfilled in a way that it's never been fulfilled before. I think that a large part of that was doing the Alpha course through Holy Trinity Brompton, in London, which was my London Church while we were living over there.

MM: When we start this story about your health and what happened to you in recent years, you say it starts with a service that you held here at Gouray in 2003. Can you tell me a little bit about that service?

FCW: Yes, but before that I'll tell you about my daughter, Melanie, who died of cancer at the age of 20. She'd just gone to London University, and she got cancer and was dead within 16 months, despite all that orthodox medicine could do for her. Her stone is right outside here at this Church. I was fired up after that to think that there must be a better way of treating cancer and so I did two nutrition courses; one in London and one in San Diego in America, and I came to realise that there was a great deal of sense in the simple nutrition that we learn about basically in God's word because in Genesis 1:29 the Lord God says, "I give you every seed bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it, they will be yours for food."

And the more that I got into nutrition, I realised that we have to get back to very basic food and fruit and vegetables and the seeds thereof, which are so important. There has been a grape cancer cure for many years which has been based on the seeds in the grapes and of course we're now growing seedless grapes and we tend to throw away the pips in our apples and this is actually how we're throwing away the very seeds that God has told us in Genesis 1:29 that we need for our health.

MM: You had already chosen a lifestyle of being a vegetarian and not drinking any alcohol, and that very much reflects what Adam and Eve would have eaten as the Bible tells it Genesis. How did that decision come about for you?

FCW: I just felt better when I was living on fruit and vegetables and water, and there's a precedent for that in the Bible as well. Daniel had this wonderful diet when they were in exile and Daniel and his friends were supposed to eat the King's diet of rich food and wine. In fact they said that they would maintain their own diet and that after a few weeks that King could judge who was fitter, and in fact Daniel and his friends came out much fitter than the ones who were eating the rich food.

MM: So at the time you became ill, you were eating a good diet, you weren't drinking; when did you start feeling that perhaps something was wrong with your health?

FCW: Well we did a service here for Bible Society almost exactly a year ago, 6th of September 2003, and I was fine, we had a wonderful service. I just brought a film back from the Holy Land, it was a film about our Judaic heritage in the Christian Church, so I had people from every denomination here. It was just a wonderful service and we preached on the Word of God, we showed the film of the Holy Land, and it was a terrific move of God. I think that God enjoyed it but the devil didn't. The next day I was hit with tremendous pain in the solar plexus, like a killer blow. The day after that I was yellow all over. I was in terrific pain from one side of my body to the other but it was centred on the midriff. And so I went to my doctor who looked at me, examined me and said, "I think we have a major problem here." I said "Well do you think it's cancer?" and he said "Well, only a scan will tell."

The next day I had a scan, it was in fact cancer, there was a huge tumour, I have the x-rays here to show you with the tumour, so I went to London to King Edward VII Hospital, and I was in that hospital a week. At the end of all the examinations they said that there was absolutely no hope and that I had about five weeks to six months at the most to live with pancreatic cancer. And I have found that the people who had pancreatic cancer when I did, have now all died. I am the only one who has survived and who is also looking better than I've looked for a long time.
MM: Well you certainly look extremely well. Now many people who are struck down with what they are told, or is diagnosed as a terminal illness, often actually turn round and feel and anger towards God. Now your reaction has been entirely opposite, how do you come to that position of saying, "I'm not going to accept this and God is going to heal me"?
FCW: Well the first thing I did was to say the Gethsemane prayer, in which Jesus says to God that His will be done and whether I was going to die or live I knew that I was in God's hands. In fact I was never so glad to be a Christian. Because we know that through the blood of Jesus we do have atonement and that we can live forever with God, so I felt that I had his salvation whether I died and if I was going to be miraculously healed that would be of His Will as well. In Malachi 4:2 it says "For those that revere My name, the Son of Righteousness will appear with healing in His wings" and I just felt entirely at rest, people just couldn't understand why I was so calm and why I was so positive because I just felt all along that God has His hand on this. And having seen Melanie die of cancer I thought that it was another Satanic attack on the Church, as we know there are many attacks on the Church and I just felt that God was going to prove something out of this and I just completely surrendered to him and said "His will be done."
MM: Can you explain exactly how this B17 remedy that you were given, how it's received and how you take it?
FCW: Well Emmy Wilson told me that I should really go to Mexico because there is a Christian Cancer Hospital there called the Oasis of Hope where 150,000 people have been cured from cancer. And the reason it's in Mexico is that it's unorthodox medicine; you must understand that there is consensus medicine as to how people should be treated for cancer, at the moment that is surgery; radiotherapy and chemotherapy, these things do have their limitations, because if cancer is a deficiency disease, as is the theory of B17, then when we're low on B17, then we're not going to be cured of it. You might cut a cancer out, or you might irradiate it and burn it up, or you might poison it, but if the body is still deficient in B17 that cancer will return sooner or later, in another form.
MM: Now B17, as you say, consensus medicine has almost entirely rejected. There is a huge fuss about this internationally and certainly there is a large body of people on the internet who are claiming that it is the thing that we need to be looking at now. Why do you think it's been so subverted?
FCW: Well I have read two very interesting books on B17, one is called World Without Cancer by Edward Griffin and one is by Philip Day, Cancer: Why We're Still Dying to Know the Truth. And the truth seems to be that there is a vast amount of money, they say $85 billion a year made out of the cytotoxic chemicals that are put in chemotherapy. Because there's so much money being made out of it they actually fund a lot of the cancer research and the Oncology chairs of the Professors throughout the world, and it's not the fault of our doctors, because our doctors have been trained in how to try to take care of cancer in orthodox means and they do not know the natural means; they're afraid of doing it. We also live in a very litigious society and doctors are afraid of being sued if they try something natural and they haven't given the patient what they think is the benefit of all the orthodox treatments available.
MM: B17 is present in a great number of very natural foods, actually I take a B vitamin supplement and I looked on the jar this morning before I came to see you and B17 isn't present in that. It seems to have been very much put aside and it's also documented that there are people who've been saying that this is a cure for cancer and they're now actually in jail for various reasons. What's your reaction to that?
FCW: Well if you look back in history you'll see that vitamin C, which we now all take, was discredited very much, there was a man called Linus Pauling who really did the first research on Vitamin C. And we now know that without Vitamin C we can die of scurvy, in fact a million British sailors did die of scurvy back in history. It was only when they started taking limes on board with them that they discovered that the sailors who took the limes and the lime juice actually did not get the scurvy when the rest of the sailors did. It took 300 years for the truth to actually come out.
I believe that cancer is a deficiency disease. I know that for myself a few weeks ago I had a bit more pain back in my pancreas because the tumour is still there. The whole essence of B17 is that it shrinks the tumour right down and the tumour stays as a vaccination in the body against further attacks of cancer. So when I had more pain I just took more B17 and it has completely gone again. So it proves to me again and again that this is right, and I'm the only one surviving after just a year now.
MM: All through your illness and through your recovery your faith has been a huge part of this and B17 has been a huge part too. How would you say the two have combined together to bring you to where you are today?
FCW: Well I think that we have to live in the Word of God and that I know was just the most tremendous support to me. Psalm 103 was just constantly with me "I am the Lord God who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases. Your youth and your strength will be renewed like the eagles'." I just knew that God was going to do something really good.
MM: You talk a lot about 'God-incidence', you clearly believe that God's been working all the way through this, is that a phrase you've come up with yourself?
FCW: Well I think it's a phrase probably God has given me because people were talking about coincidences like me going back to Holy Trinity Brompton, and the fact that Emmy Wilson was the one pastor who prayed for me in there out of many pastors, Nicky Gumble was standing there, but Emmy was the one who happened to know about the B17 and that was a God-incidence and there have just been so many in my life through this cure that I just feel that life is full of God incidences. In life there are many coincidences, but I believe they're God-incidences.
MM: Now all through you've very much sort of turned against, had a great determination that death was not going to claim you and that you had work still to do. How do you feel your ministry is now directed, given that you've had this great reprieve?
FCW: Well we're all going to die, you know that's the thing, I've been healed for another few years and God may allow me to live until I'm great in years, as the Bible says, but the whole point of Christianity is that through Christ we do have eternal life and so death is just part of that; I'm not at all afraid of death.

The Secret Place

The Secret Place
A Sermon Preached by Smith Wigglesworth in 1921
Public Domain - Copy Freely

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.  Psalm 91

The crown of life is for the overcomer. It is not for those at ease in Zion. We must be in the place where God can depend upon us to keep going until we see victory, never giving in and knowing no defeat, always making our stand by a living faith and gaining the victory. Faith is the victory.

This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. John 6:29

England once had a war with France. Some prisoners were taken; among them, a drummer boy. Napoleon ordered him to sound a retreat. He said "No!" He had never learned one.

God never wants you to retreat before the enemy, but to learn the song of victory and overcome! Praise the Lord!

There are two kinds of shouts: a shout that is made, and a shout that makes you. There are men of God, but there are also men who are God's men. There is a place where you take hold of God, but there is a better place where God takes hold of you.

Psalm 91:1 says, "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. " Do YOU know the presence of the Almighty? It is wonderful. It is a surety, with no wavering, no unbelief, no unrest there. It is perfect!

Fear the Lord

My great desire is to see men become strong in the Lord by dwelling in the secret place, which is known to all who fear Him.

Now, there are two kinds of fear. One fear involves being afraid of God. I hope you are not there. Unbelievers are there. But the believer should desire, rather, to die than to grieve God by fearing Him in this way.

Fellowship with God, peace, and power -- this is God's will for us, so don't fear that it isn't. No price is too great to pay to have it. It is our inheritance. Christ purchased it for us. Through Him we have the covering of the presence of the Almighty. What a covering the unfolding of His will is!

The secret place of the Lord is with those who fear Him in the second way: with respect and honor. Moses knew something about it. He feared God and said to Him, "If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence" (Exodus 33:15 ).

Oh, to dwell in the secret place, His presence! What will this presence do? It will dare us to believe all God says; assisting us to lay hold of the promises. We will have God so indwelling us that we will become a force, a power of God's abiding, until the time death is swallowed up in victory!

We have a great salvation filled with inspiration. It has no limitations; it makes known the immeasurable wonders of God.

If you are in the experience of verse 1, here is an added substance of faith for you. (It is a fact. And you need to have facts, inward facts, instead of "fearings" or feelings, because you will be beyond anyone's argument when you have them.) There are those who proclaim, "I will say of the Lord, he is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust" (Psalm 91:2 ). Who will say it? He that abideth! He who abides in the Lord knows he can trust in the Lord to protect him from harm.

Free From The Law of Sin and Death

There is no "kick" in the secret place -- no evil temper, no irritability. All is swept away while one is dwelling in the presence of the Almighty; in the covering of God. Even the best of humanity, when from the devil, is not good, and cannot remain in God's presence. Jesus was manifested to destroy ALL the works of the devil (I John 3:8 ).

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh.  Romans 8:3

God sent forth Jesus in the mightiness of His power. In flesh and in the midst of flesh, He condemned it. The law of the Spirit of life was destroying all that must be destroyed. Dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God, we then are above all in Him: He that is above all and through all and in you all.

This is a fact, not in human nature, but in God. It is the gift of God from heaven. We belong to the new creation, and we are in a wonderful place in life. It is a life free from the law of sin and death.

Can we keep ourselves there? GOD can keep us there.

He never forgets to keep me,
He never forgets to keep me
My Father has many dear children;
But He never forgets to keep me.

Has He forgotten to keep you? Nay! He cannot forget. God has much in store for you; you are far from being out of His thoughts.

God's Word: Antidote to Evil

There was a time when the children of Israel hung their harps on the willows in defeat. Sometimes the believer does the same. The song of joy leaves his heart. It doesn't have to happen. I have seen thousands delivered from evil powers.

You must be aware that there is a great weakness in the land: It is a lack of knowledge. People hew out cisterns that can hold no water, instead of filling themselves with the Word of God. You see, "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear. . ."(I John 4:18 ). And where is God, who is Love? He is in the Word. He has embodied Himself in the Word. The Word spells destruction to all evil, because God is in the Word, and He is greater than all evil. Therefore, he that dwelleth in love is master of evil situations. He that dwelleth in GOD, in His presence and in His Word, is master of evil situations. We have no fear! We are over every sickness! Ours is a perfect redemption!

Concerning the healing Christ secured for us in redemption, some ask, "Does it last? Does the healing stand good?" Yes! What God does, He does to last forever!

Many years ago, God healed me when all my teeth were decayed and weak. God healed them when I was sixty-two. I am as fresh as a boy! Now, devil, take THAT! Such healing is God's plan, which is better than any other plan!

Some turn from God's plan because of fear. Others throw over God's wonderful plan because of a feeling. The Bible has so many precious promises, with wealth beyond all price, that God has planned for us to have. Seek after God's plan. Don't be unbelieving, for the waverer gets nothing. Real faith is established, never changing, and with it you'll get all God has for you.

Established Faith

"How can I get established faith?" you ask.

Abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Don't change your position, but always have the presence of God, the glory of God. Pay any price to abide under that covering, for the secret of victory is to abide where the Victor abides.

Higher, higher, nothing dreading
Never, never let me stop;
In thy footsteps keep my treading
Give me strength to reach the top.

Jesus has become the Author and the Finisher of your faith. Through faith in Him, you came to the Father, "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation: (Romans 10:10 ). Your life is hid with Christ in God. You have no limitation when the holy breath blows an inward cry after Him.

Oh, do you know His Name? If you do, God will set you on high (Psalm 91:14 ). And you can ask what you will -- communion with Jesus, fellowship divine -- and it shall be given to you! It comes through knowledge of Jesus' Name, not just by whispering it now and then.

Call upon the lord, and he will answer you (Psalm 91:15). Feed upon His Word. To those who do, God hath said, "With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation" (Psalm 91:16). Amen.
