Again, your argument is with God and his word, not with me.

God’s word states that Jesus “healed all that were sick” because he “took our infirmities and bare our sicknesses” - physically (Matt. 8:16-17) and you, like the Pharisees, don’t like that.

“I’m afraid that, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your mind has been corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ” (2 Cor 11:3). And again, in doing so, you have made “the word of God of no effect through your tradition” (Mark 7:13).

Not sure at this point we’re really getting anywhere we haven’t already been.

Hope the best for you. Bye.

I was never arguing with you, just teaching you and warning you of misinterpretation and misapplication of Scripture, as your posts seem to demonstrate.

In truth, I would be willing and glad to continue fellowship if you might desire to receive material that would improve your Biblical education, as the Lord expects us to do, should you wish.

Of course, that would lead you away from following the Kuhlman/Roberts/Hinn/Copeland false healing and prosperity doctrines, but into deeper union with the Jesus of the Bible, who actually did not heal everybody's earthly body that asked.

You might not be willing to give it up until you've drunk your own brand of Kool-Aid, eh? But you ought not to neglect the "tough love" that many contributors to this thread have shown you, with whom you've engaged, thinking that they are adversarial to your best interests.

Ciao for now.

Yet we still have the example of Paul who was not healed for whatever reason.

Your practicing one verse theology and ignoring the rest of the Bible as context.

We have other examples also of Christians who became sick and died.

The name it and claim it view of the Bible is false and turns God into Amazon.com. You just place your order and He fills it whether it fits His will or not.

That's the key piece your overlooking. Is it in His will that someone be healed? Sometimes yes. Sometimes no.

To say otherwise is to not rightly handle the Word.
