Bible Question:
Mitch, Did Jesus heal all at Bethesda (John 5:2-9)? While Christ didn't deny anyone you asked, as recorded in the Bible, He didn't heal all. Even in this passage, when the waters were stirred, while all wanted to be healed, all but one were denied. Under Quick Search enter 146451 Joni Tada has asked for healing. Why hasn't God healed her? What about Terri Schiavo? Many have asked for her healing, many with great faith? There have been others who have asked and been denied. God's answer is not always yes. None of your passages prove that God will heal ALL the time, unless you consider death as healing. My wife is not feeling well and we pray she will be healed. God is saying to wait, for now. Searcher PS I would include Paul's thorn in the flesh (2 Cor 12). |
Bible Answer: Did all at Bethesda come to Jesus and ask for healing? As for people such as Terri Schiavo, again I will state, we should never base our belief in God based on how someone else's life turns out. For instance, if I know someone who passed away without knowing the Lord, can I say its God's will that some never get saved? And I'll ask you the same about Paul, show me where Paul has said that he still suffers from the 'thorn' in his flesh. Problems may come, but God is willing to remove them all. Mitch |
