The Holy Spirit.
Cessationism is the doctrine that spiritual gifts such as speaking in tongues, prophecy and healing ceased with the original twelve apostles. This is generally opposed to continuationism, which teaches that the Holy Spirit may bestow the spiritual gifts on persons other than the original twelve apostles at any time.
In Christian theology, a charism (plural: charisms or charismata; in Greek singular: χαρίσμα charisma, plural: χαρίσματα charismata) in general denotes any good gift that flows from God's love to humans. The word can also mean any of the spiritual graces and qualifications granted to every Christian to perform his or her task in the Church. In the narrowest sense, it is a theological term for the extraordinary graces given to individual Christians for the good of others.
Choose what you wish Ed but at the end of the day those that choose Jesus will receive the Holy Spirit to be given help from the Almighty which includes self healing so I wonder why you wish to override what the Holy Spirit has given us, maybe you wish to play God eh!?
