Prayer for healing: You've all hear about it. God chooses to heal some people after prayer but not others for reasons best known to itself

@Lostpoet

Has there been no amputee who was a believer?

@Pikachu Jesus healed the blind and crippled. Amputees don't get healed because there's no Messiah walking the earth.

@Lostpoet

So goes the claim...
But never since then.
And yet claims of miraculous healing abound...they just never manifest in objective ways that are impossible without supernatural intervention...

Why?

@Pikachu I don't believe those either.

@Lostpoet

Nor should you. Nor should you believe claims of healing from a 2000 year old text of religiously motivated propaganda.
But the issue remains: Why does god appear only to respond to healing prayers when they are not incontestably supernatural?

@Pikachu I do believe those things though and I believe that Moses parted the Red Sea.

@Lostpoet

You believe what things?

@Pikachu All the things in the Bible

@Lostpoet

So you believe that miraculous healing happened in the bible but that it doesn't happen anymore?

@Lostpoet I'm curious. Why did God stop healing people? Doesn't he love us anymore?

@Pikachu Yes, I don't think there is a tried prophet right now.

@LordShadowfire I think maybe he shouldn't

@Lostpoet

well then we can agree that there are no validated instances of miraculous healing...only alleged healings which must be taken on faith.

@Pikachu Agrees

@Lostpoet

cool👍
