Heart Surgeon tells of Resurrection from the Dead
At World Doctor's Conference, Heart Surgeon Relates Astounding
Account of a Resurrection from the Dead
Dr. Chauncey W. Crandall IV
"We quickly rushed the gentleman down to the intensive care
unit, and the hospital was by now buzzing about the fact that
a dead man had been brought back to life. After a couple of days
he woke up. He had an amazing story to tell after I had asked
him, 'Where have you been and where were you on that day that
you had that massive heart attack? You were gone and we prayed
you back to life in Jesus name.'"
Dan Wooding/TN (July 18, 2007)
(MIAMI, FL) The audience of 120 doctors from 50 countries sat
in stunned silence as a renowned heart doctor produced evidence
of how, after he had prayed for a patient who had died and was
being prepared for the morgue, was brought back to life after
prayer.
Dr. Chauncey W. Crandall IV, who serves at the Palm Beach Cardiovascular
Clinic in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, made his dramatic presentation
on Friday, July 13th at the 4th Annual World Christian Doctors
Network Conference in Miami, Florida.
He produced dramatic evidence that was shown on the screen and
then, afterwards, agreed to tell the story to Assist News Service
in an interview with Dan Wooding.
The following is the interview as conducted by Dan:
Dr. Crandall began by saying that the dramatic incident took
place almost a year ago in West Palm Beach, Florida. "We
had a fifty-three year old man who came to the emergency room
with a massive heart attack and actually his heart had stopped,"
he said. "The medical people had worked on him for over forty
minutes in the emergency room and then declared him dead.
"They called me in to evaluate the patient towards the end
of his treatment where they had unsuccessfully tried to revive
him. The nurse was preparing his body to be taken down to the
morgue when the Holy Spirit told me to 'turn around and pray for
that man.' When the Holy Spirit talks to you, you have to respond.
It's sometimes a quiet voice and this was a quiet voice and to
honor the Lord I did turn around and I went to the side of that
stretcher where his body was being prepared.
"There was no life in the man. His face and feet and arms
were completely black with death and I sat next to his body and
I prayed, 'Lord, Father; how am I going to pray for this man?
He's dead. What can I do?' All of a sudden, these words came out
of my mouth, 'Father, God, I cry out for the soul of this man
if he does not know You as his Lord and Savior, please raise him
from the dead right now in Jesus name.
"It was amazing as a couple minutes later, we were looking
at the monitor and all of a sudden a heart beat showed up. It
was a perfect beat; a normal beat; and then after a couple more
minutes, he started moving and then his fingers were moving and
then his toes began moving and then he started mumbling words.
"There was a nurse in the room?she wasn't a Believer?and
she screamed out and said 'Doctor Crandall, what have you done
to this patient?' And I said, 'All I've done is cry out for his
soul in Jesus name.'
"We quickly rushed the gentleman down to the intensive care
unit, and the hospital was by now buzzing about the fact that
a dead man had been brought back to life. After a couple of days
he woke up. He had an amazing story to tell after I had asked
him, 'Where have you been and where were you on that day that
you had that massive heart attack? You were gone and we prayed
you back to life in Jesus name.'
"He said, 'Doctor Crandall, it's the most amazing thing.
I was in a dark room and there was no light. It was complete darkness
and I felt I was in a casket and I kept repeating that I was so
disappointed.' He said the disappointment came from the fact that
none of his family, friends or colleagues, had come to visit him.
Then he told me, 'All of a sudden, these men came in and they
wrapped me up and they threw me in the trash.'
"Dan, he was in hell that day and as he told me that story,
I cried out, 'Lord, this gentleman needs to accept You as Lord
and Savior.' I then explained the salvation message to this man
as he sat in that bed and I held his hand and I cried out, 'Father
God, in the name of Jesus, I pray that this man accepts you as
his Lord and Savior right here in the intensive care unit.' He
held out his hand and accepted Christ as his Savior with tears
rolling down from his eyes and now he's a child of God.
"I told him, 'You never have to be thrown in the trash into
total darkness now. The life of Christ is in you and the light
of the kingdom of Heaven is on you now."
I asked Dr. Crandall if there had been any brain damage to the
patient.
"No there was no brain damage at all; his brain was completely
normal," he said. "I was most concerned about his hands
because his fingers were completely black and he had some numbness
in his fingers and his feet, but now that is totally resolved."
I asked Dr. Crandall if he could give the name of the man and
he said he couldn't as the patient had requested that it would
not be revealed.
"All I can say is that he was fifty-three years old and
he was a car mechanic," he said. "He had a family who
were Believers, but he left them twenty years ago because he didn't
believe in the Lord. His family continued to pray for twenty years
for his salvation, and his ex-wife was on her hands and knees
praying for the salvation of her ex-husband, who came to know
the Lord that day."
I then asked the doctor if he had seen other similar miracles
in his practice.
"I've been witness to three cases of people being raised
from the dead," he said. "One other case was when another
patient came to the hospital with a massive heart attack. It was
on the very day that I received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit
and I'd been praying for weeks that I would receive this mighty
baptism that the Lord can give us. We were working on this patient
that came in again with a massive heart attack and who didn't
survive in the operating room.
"All of a sudden, that Baptism of the Holy Spirit hit me
and I started speaking in a spiritual language and crying over
this patient who, in the operating room theater, had passed away.
And then, within five or ten minutes, the heartbeat came back
and life came back to this patient. Once again, the nurses who
are not Believers looked at me as if to say, 'There goes Doctor
Crandall on another case'."
I concluded the interview by asking Dr. Crandall what he would
like to say to doctors who do not believe in supernatural healing.
"I would just like to say to my colleagues and physicians
out there, that the Lord is real. We've seen many miracles and
we pray for our patients daily. There is not one week that goes
by that we don't see a mighty miracle in our office. The people
need this; they need the power of Christ in their life and they
need the power of Christ for healing.
"I would just encourage my fellow doctors to get involved
in a church, meet with a minister, and attend a healing service
run by people that believe in the power of Jesus Christ. We love
our colleagues in medicine 'we pray for them'."
