“I remember a recent Gospel reading where a woman just touched the garments that Jesus wore and was cured.”
Then she cut a small piece off to keep, as a magic relic. For generations, it healed everyone in her family! Later after her death, her family willed it to their church to keep on display...
Wait. Scratch that. Not in the Scriptures.
Christ said her faith made her whole - not touching his garment.
You are correct it was her faith that healed her, however, it was her touching Jesus’ clothing that gained his attention to her amongst all in the crowd.
Using Luke 8:45-48 which recounts this incident as follows. Please note the in the crowd and the crush of everyone around Him, Jesus states that he felt “power had gone out of me.” thus her faith and touching the garment got Jesus’ notice of her.
45And Jesus said, “Who is the one who touched Me?” And while they were all denying it, Peter said, “Master, the people are crowding and pressing in on You.” 46But Jesus said, “Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that power had gone out of Me.” 47When the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace.
We live, amazingly, in a culture that places great value on the jersey a favorite football player wore in a championship game, the bat that was used to hit the record breaking home run, the ball that bat hit, etc.
How much more would even you revere an article of clothing worn by the one and only begotten Son of God?
Think about it. These aren't Judy Garland's ruby slippers.
While no one is worshiping the things which came into contact with Our Saviour's body, they are articles, if genuine of extreme value which should be revered, not worshiped.
