Why not?
How would that creature not be annihilated? In the Old Testament, when those who werent priests touched the Ark of the Covenant, they would fall over dead, fallen, unredeemed human beings were so unworthy at that time.
So then anyone whom Jesus touched would be annihilated. How did He go through His entire life not touching a single person?
Oh, wait. He didn't.......
And why were they healed instead of annihilated?
Though they would be loath to ever admit this, the dogma of Mary having to be a sinless vessel in order to bear the incarnate God actually detracts from the truth of the Deity of Jesus.
