Christians & Lawsuits
Home > Pastor's Blog > Christians & LawsuitsThe topic for Wednesday Night – Oct 5th – Christians and Lawsuits. We’ve had several requests to do this one. First Corinthians 6:1-8 seems to discourage Christians from suing. But as Christians, living in 21st century – Lawyers and lawsuits have become a part of every day life.
Example — Suppose you go to the hospital for a necessary medical procedure. During the procedure, the doctor makes a mistake and you end up having to stay several extra days for treatment. And suppose your health insurance is not all that great – high deductable with miminal coverage. So you have already experienced extra pain and suffering – and THEN you discover when you get your insurance statement that your insurance company is not willing to pay for all that extra care beyond the “customary & reasonable” charges for the original procedure. You now have a bill for medical services that is way beyond your ability to pay.
In this case,
Is it OK for a Christian to sue the Doctor?
