Context ebb...context....the passage you cited doesn't say what you claim. Keep trying though.

Now, to the passage you posted from Luke 7:50...pay close attention. Jesus said her FAITH had saved her. Once again, the DR has the poor translation of safe for the Greek verb sozo.

The word conveys the following meaning:

4982 sṓzō (from sōs, "safe, rescued") – properly, deliver out of danger and into safety; used principally of God rescuing believers from the penalty and power of sin – and into His provisions (safety).

[4982 (sṓzō) is the root of: 4990 /sōtḗr ("Savior"), 4991 /sōtēría ("salvation") and the adjectival form, 4992 /sōtḗrion (what is "saved/rescued from destruction and brought into divine safety").]https://biblehub.com/greek/4982.htm

The same word is used in the other passages but the context of those passage is different than this one and that's the key to properly understanding this subject. Now, contrast the difference in this passage with the others you posted where the people were healed from an illness.

However, this still does not justify your wearing the brown scapular in a false hope of escaping the hell fire.

All of these incidents put the attention on Christ.....the apparition put the attention on itself primarily.

You need to understand that and then throw away that false idol you're wearing.

I have the same faith as the woman did.

However, you took it upon yourself to publicly accuse me by dishonestly stating:

You have departed from the faith.
