you have no idea what the Word of God even says. Sad for you as a ‘long time Christian’. You never bothered understanding what you read, if you read the Word. Which, sadly, many Christians do NOT read the Word.

Isaiah 53:5
Exodus 15:6
Psalm 107:20
Psalm 103:2-3
Jeremiah 33:7
1 Peter 2:24
Matthew 15:30
Luke 4:38-41

Here’s several healing scriptures, just to name a few. Somehow speaking with you makes me think of the verse about throwing pearls before swine as you are not interested in the actual truth. You’re only interest is trying to prove to the gullible that God, through Jesus Christ, doesn’t heal.

By your logic every Church Cemetery is filled with faith-less (or at best less than faith-full) people.

No. Just no. I’ve heard phonies like you preaching this nonsense and you are all just...PHONIES! You mouth this garbage as if no one ever heard it before - and as if no one had ever put it to the test and found it utter garbage.

“30 Large crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the blind, the crippled, the dumb, and many other sick people, whom they placed at Jesus’ feet; and he healed them.”

No kidding. Jesus healed many, miraculously. Ever wonder why? Ever wonder what the point was? It was to show us that the One who could heal their bodily infirmities - miraculously, instantly, in front of large crowds of witnesses - could heal them of sin. Are you suggesting YOU do likewise? And if not, why not?

” 24 Christ himself carried our sins in his body to the cross, so that we might die to sin and live for righteousness. It is by his wounds that you have been healed. 25 You were like sheep that had lost their way, but now you have been brought back to follow the Shepherd and Keeper of your souls.” - 1 Peter 2

This is very obviously NOT about physical healing! So we might live for righteousness! You were lost but have been “brought back to follow the Shepherd and Keeper of your souls.” Not about physical healing!

Luke 4: “38 Jesus left the synagogue and went to Simon’s home. Simon’s mother-in-law was sick with a high fever, and they spoke to Jesus about her. 39 He went and stood at her bedside and ordered the fever to leave her. The fever left her, and she got up at once and began to wait on them.”

Again, yes, Jesus healed people miraculously. Whenever He wanted. Do you? If not, then what is your point?

Jeremiah 33: “ I have turned away from this city because of the evil things that its people have done. 6 But I will heal this city and its people and restore them to health. I will show them abundant peace and security. 7 I will make Judah and Israel prosperous, and I will rebuild them as they were before. 8 I will purify them from the sins that they have committed against me, and I will forgive their sins and their rebellion.”

Again, He promises to restore Israel and Jerusalem and bring it back, purifying them from their rebellion. What is your point? Do you miraculously heal strangers by your faith? Frankly, if someone broke your leg with a baseball bat, COULD YOU HEAL IT INSTANTLY?

You people are all just phonies.
