Why would God not heal someone....

You haven't given anything at all. You repeated some words/claims that are not supported. I ask you to present evidence of another source producing a brain. You could not, as the claims you presented are unsupported, they are just words. So it's simply dismissed as a unsupported claim.

 

I knew you would say that because people like you don't want to believe that there is a Higher Being who has supremacy over all beings and you would just rather justify whatever little excuse you can come up with as "knowledge" to support your idea of a world that just happened to be without any true knowledge of how it actually came to be!  But one day, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess, that Jesus is Lord...whether you believe that or not, accept it or not or even acknowledge it or not...it shall come to pass! 

Thank you for your time.

@love child You valiantly tried to use words of wisdom and compassion in your answers to Roko. Time to wipe the dirt from your feet and move on to a more sensible person.  I often wonder why non-believers show up in a Christian forum but then I remember that the devil roams where he may.

As far as healing's, sometimes He says yes to our requests and sometimes he says no.  I generally take his silence to requested prayer as a no with the understanding he could still change his mind and bring about a miracle.

Well said! I, too, have wondered thst same thing about non believers?!?  But he was just trying to pick a fight.  I was not interested in trying to convince someone who had long since made up in their minds that nothing was going to convince them that God exist.  So, I ended that and go luck to him...I guess? 

 

Thank you for your words of wisdom.  Bless you!

Joni Eareckson Tada struggled with this issue for a long time.

I love that you mentioned Joni in this thread about healing.  None of us would have never heard or known about anything about Joni Eareckson Tada if she had never become a quadriplegic. We would know nothing about her faith and beliefs, or enjoyed her writings, her art, enjoy her testimonials.  More than likely she would have been just another face in a sea of faces like so many of us.  More than likely she would tell you that she did not want to live life as a quadriplegic but God had other plans for her life and she was a willing believer to accept his plan so that thousands could hear her story and see her faith and hope in a God that sometimes says no.

Yes, Romans 8:28.

...after they've prayed often and earnestly, believing, hoping and year after year, this person is still not healed?  Could it be that God won't remove their "thorn in the side", because God is using that thorn to keep them humble???

Amen! I believe that GOD knows every thing, in this chapter of Mark where Jesus noticed the woman had that kind of faith, actually heals her that instant.

Mark 5:25-34 ²⁵And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, ²⁶And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, ²⁷When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

²⁸For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. ²⁹And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. ³⁰And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

³¹And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? ³²And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing. ³³But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

³⁴And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

People help people regardless of a God belief. Science has enabled aircraft deliver aid to countries who need it. Science has doubled your lifespan. Euthanasia is beneficial for those who no longer want to suffer. Nuclear weapons are beneficial to protect us from countries who pose a threat. Drones are beneficial to reduce military fatalities when taking out regimes that want to harm us. Christians have the highest abortion rate. So it is beneficial to them.

https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2015/11/30/1455348/-Christian-group-s-survey-finds-that-Christians-have-highest-abortion-rates-by-a-lot

911 is used daily by people, it's beneficial as people actually help.

You did not answer my question. Who hurt you? What has happened to you that you're so angry with GOD?

How do you know "science" has doubled my lifespan? I would challenge you to say that "science" has probably depleted my lifespan. Being a Soldier for 22 years and being exposed to a myriad of toxic chemicals and hazardous materials (Science Brother!). But, I believe that I will not live or die one second sooner or later than YeHoVah wills it.

Killing yourself "Euthanasia" does not benefit anyone... You are taking a life you had no right to.

Nuclear weapons are a benefit? Really? Ask the people from Nagasaki or Hiroshima how they feel about that...

What happens when one of these "Drones" get hacked? Yes, it's already happened and it's not pretty...

A "Christain" by definition from the Bible would not kill an unborn child. What you claim is a false Christian or a backslider...

Also, I can find a hyperlink for you to click on to support anything I want to say...

911 is beneficial. Sorry, I did not get to finish my sentence before.  But in certain places, "GODLESS" people want to de-fund the police...

Look outside and tell me if you see a building...

Then surely someone built that building...

Look at a painting...

Surely someone painted it...

Now look at creation...

Surely there is a creator...

So you believe that everything just came from nothing on its own and just formed on its own. If you do, you actually know NOTHING about science or how complex everything in this world is. And most things had to be created all at once or they could not survive.

You keep repeating claims. Show a brain coming from another source other than from sperm/egg/another human. Do you have any evidence contrary?

Who do you  think created the human? Do you have any evidence to the contrary. EVIDENCE not your opinion...

If you think mere words convince people of extraordinary claims. Then you clearly are not wise or sensible.

As for showing up on a forum, anyone can as it's a public forum.

Yes, and you can be easily IGNORED by using the IGNORE button... Just so you know... In fact...

Roko is terrified that we (Christians) are right!  He's so scared that he's literally grasping at straws to see if he can find somebody, anybody, who can "pet" him, calm his fears and agree with him that there is no God.  He's searching for answers to his made up questions and hoping that he will find such a silly person really soon!  

 

The bottom line is: he knows that what we are all saying is true...he just wishes it were not true, so that he can continue on living the way he wants to live, with whatever sin he wants to sin and he doesn't want there to be any consequences to his sinful lifestyle nor does he want to bow down to a supreme being ruling over him!!!

 

That's all this is about really.
