| John Graham Lake, (1870-1935) (Article #48 Page 1) |
John G. Lake
John Graham Lake, (1870-1935), usually known as "John G. Lake", was a businessman influenced by the healing ministry of John Alexander Dowie, received the baptism of the Holy Spirit in 1907 in the wake of the Azusa Street Revival and became known for his ministry as a missionary and “faith healer.” His life and message are represented in a book compiled by Roberts Liardon, entitled, John G. Lake: The Complete Collection of His Life Teachings.
Lake was originally from Ontario, Canada. He was from a large family, which was continually affected with illness, and his memory of childhood was that there was always someone in the house either sick, dying or dead. Lake was a very industrious businessman, and started two newspapers, before beginning a very successful career in real estate. By the time he left for the mission field he walked away from a $50,000 year salary (around 1 million in 2005 dollars), as well as his seat on the Chicago Board of Trade.
Early in his career, Lake's wife, whom he deeply loved, and even adored, fell ill with a life threatening illness. Having a lifetime of suffering and bereavement behind him, he refused to accept this, and took the radical step of taking her to see John Alexander Dowie. Dowie had a reputation as a wild faith healer and founder of Zion City, Illinois fifty miles north of Chicago around this belief. Lake's wife recovered and he was drawn into Dowie's movement, and he eventually became and elder in the church. It was here that he began to practice "divine healing". Although Dowie rejected the Pentecostal message, a number of early Pentecostal leaders, including F.F. Bosworth, were trained under Dowie.
Lake's greatest ministry was in South Africa, and his ministry there had dramatic and far reaching consequences. The incredible stories of his ministry are too numerous to recount [and difficult to verify - although Lake was a man of incredible character - he would not lie!]. With Thomas Hezmalhalch he founded the Apostolic Faith Mission of South Africa in 1908, which attracted many of the early Zionists led by Pieter L. le Roux of Wakkerstroom. Le Roux took over the leadership of the Apostolic Faith Mission when Lake returned to America, and led it for 30 years.
Lake's ministry was unique and he had relationships with many of the leading figures of his day including railroad tycoon, James J. Hill, Cecil Rhodes, Mahatma Gandhi, Conan Doyle, and others. After his ministry in South Africa, he returned to the US and settled in Spokane, Washington, where he established "Healing Rooms", and saw tens of thousands healed either under his hands or those he trained.
In 1987 Wilford Reidt (the son-in-law of the late Dr. John G. Lake) and his wife, Gertrude (Dr. Lake's daughter) passed the leadership of Dr. Lake's ministry to Curry R. Blake. Blake was named the General Overseer of the International Apostolic Council, an organization founded by the late Dr. John G. Lake in 1914. The decision was made to hand the ministry to Curry Blake because of a detailed prophecy left by Dr. Lake approximately one year before he died. Today, the ministry establishes John G. Lake Healing Rooms and trains Christians in divine healing throughout the world.

He and his lawyer, Christopher Lyons, who participated in last Thursday's call, would not discuss the arrangement struck with the International Tennis Federation that halved
Odesnik's two-year suspension and allowed him to resume playing this year. The ITF oversees doping policy and enforcement in tennis.

Odesnik left many questions unanswered, including the most burning: What kind of "cooperation" is he providing to authorities in exchange for his reduced suspension?

The journeyman pro reiterated his claim that he has never taken performance-enhancing drugs. He explained some of the why — but little of the how — he was transporting HGH
across international borders.

Odesnik first told customs officers that he had a doctor's prescription for HGH to aid a "career-threatening injury,"but later said in court proceedings that he had ordered it
from the Internet. He failed to give the name of a consulting doctor or details of the injury.

Alternating between contrite and defiant, Odesnik said that he wanted to "at least get at some of the information out there" after taking a "big hit in the media" last year.

For the last 12 months, Odesnik has lived with the label drug cheat and whistle-blower. Now back cobbling together the pieces of his career, he is looking to clear the air and
tell his side of the story.

"I did not know that the sole possession of any banned substance at that time was a violation," he said. "I know if you take something and test positive it's a violation, but
seeing as I've never taken it, I never thought that with a doctor's consultation or whatever that it would be a doping violation.""My goal is to get back into ATP tournaments
and play the Grand Slams," added Odesnik, 25, who competed in 10 consecutive majors prior to his year-long ban. "I really feel if I'm able to stay injury free, my level is
already there."
"One of the things we have to be very careful about is saying anything that

Looking back, there are many things that could have happened differently," said American Odesnik, who reached a career-best 77th in 2009. "I'm young, and obviously you learn
from your mistakes."

He told officers he planned to use the HGH only after he had approval, but there is nothing in the record indicating he had undertaken steps to do so.

According to court documents and the magistrate's ruling in the case, South African-born Odesnik admitted bringing eight vials of HGH and other medical paraphernalia in his
luggage, which initially failed to show up when he arrived in Brisbane.

Odesnik said in the interview he was unaware that he was committing a doping violation when he carried the HGH into Australia.
