The modern problem caused by the Enlightenment of reducing human beings to cadavers seriously affects the image medical professionals have of their art. The world of the spirit and therefore the place of the spiritual soul should be taken into consideration even in problems of physical healings because the human being is a combination of body and spirit. The teachings of faith can contribute to this. Because of the unique attitude of Christianity to the problem of physical and spiritual healing, Christ is a special model and teacher in this.
启蒙运动将人类简化为尸体所引发的现代问题,严重影响了医学专业人员对其技艺的认知形象。即使在身体治疗的问题中,也应考虑精神世界,进而考虑精神灵魂的所在,因为人是身体与精神的结合体。信仰教义能对此有所助益。由于基督教对身体与精神治疗问题的独特态度,基督在这方面是一个特殊的典范和导师。
