What is it with you? Deflection, non-sequitur, all the tricks of the Pharisee I suppose.

Jesus “healed all that were sick” because he “took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses”, demonstrated physically (Matt. 8:16-17).

That is God's word which you dismiss to serve your whims.

Good bye and good luck.

Then you owe everyone an explanation as to WHY they aren’t healed as soon as they ask.

Or for that matter, as soon as they are saved.

If healing is part of redemption because He took those stripes as part of the atonement, then as soon as we are saved, we should be healed.

When Jesus healed people, they were HEALED, immediately. No nonsense about, *Well, you’re healed even if you still show symptoms, even if it’s not manifest, etc, etc.*

Their circumstances and situations changed dramatically and immediately and EVERYONE knew it.

Let's get God's Word correctly quoted first:
16 That evening they brought to him many who were oppressed by demons, and he cast out the spirits with a word and healed all who were sick. 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: “He took our illnesses and bore our diseases.”

That was Christ healing those brought to him in order to fulfill prophecy. It says nothing about being healed of illnesses or diseases because of blabbing it and grabbing it.

Exegesis. Try it; you'll like it.
