Dear Kelly,

I was in the New Age, doing various meditations and visualizations,
including "toning," the use of sound to heal.
I can attest that toning can make a person feel a lot
better--temporarily.

The DNA is not changed by this toning.  If you have a genetic defect,
or two, these will not "get a new strand" or alter a defective strand
through being subjected to sound.

Music, too, does much to heal our souls, if it's the right kind of
music.  But it does not heal our DNA.

Only God can heal our DNA, and as you say, the great healing will come
when His trumpet sounds!

Genetic tinkering is one of the last great sins, and some, such as our
Pastor Riley, believe that genetic experiments will bring the end, for
God will not allow man to use it.   Even for healing.  This will be a
challenge for many, if stem cell research goes forward very far (and we
hope that we will be "in the air" before that goes much further).

Some genetic defects are born in, and other mutate during a creature's
life through stem cells.  Because of our tinkering with the
environment, these stem cell mutations may increase exponentially. 
This is why we need God to solve this problem.

Listen to good music, however, for its healing effects on the soul.
