No Disease God Can’t Heal

[Faith]

I read some meme online that said this. My dad died of pancreatic cancer in 1989, I think. I’ve never heard of God curing this disease. Is this disease an exception? Is the Bible wrong? Has anyone ever heard of a pancreatic cancer survivor?

 

[Faith]

Ok, I read online of a couple survivors but it’s rare. So my original question still stands. Is this disease an exception? Is the Bible wrong when it says Jesus can cure anything?

My father in law is a Pastor and I've asked him why God hasn't healed me. I was born 3 months early. Missing part of my brain, I have Hydrocephalus and DandyWalker and Scoliosis. I am pain everyday. No meds work. I have asked and prayed to God to heal me. I was told by my father in law that he hasn't healed me cause he maybe wants me to ministry to someone who might have one of conditions or he won't heal me till I'm in heaven. I'm not sure. I think your dad was meant to go home to Heaven. God COULD have healed him but chose not too for whatever reason. We don't know the reason and probably won't know till we get to Heaven and ask.

Hope that helps!

There's a difference between "God can heal" and "God will heal". We don't necessarily understand why God heals one and not another but if we accept that God is God and we are not we have to also accept that sometimes God doesn't heal for reasons we may not grasp.

Thanks! I’m sorry you’re going through all that.

my cousin just had surgery for this type cancer praying for Gods complete healing he can heal if he chooses

Ever wonder how many times you or someone you may have known has had a fatal disease that was cured without their ever knowing they had it?

Jesus taught us to seek the kingdom of God first and all that other stuff will just sort of take care of itself, but it is wise to keep that two boats and a helicopter thing in mind and not put limitations on how God works this out.

My question is: how are you comfortable with worshipping (or trusting, for that matter) a God who is described in the Bible as being light without shadow or darkness (1 John 1:5), but keeps us in the dark regarding His existence, plans, decisions etc.?

Ask yourself this: Is it more important that you can trust God or that God can trust you?

You may find your answer there.

I'm not sure I'd base my eternal future on mixing metaphors, if that helps.

More important for what?

More important for what?

For the revelation of those "existence, plans, decisions etc." you seem to lament being kept secret from you, sometimes referred to as the mysteries of the Kingdom of God.

Ok. My answer is that it's more important for me to trust God because God is omniscient, and an omniscient being knows what everyone is going to do, therefore the concept of "trusting someone" doesn't apply to Him.

Asking if God can trust a person is like if you watched a movie a second time and being asked if you can trust the actors to perform the same way that you know they would perform because you already watched the movie.

Curious, why did you bring up the issue of trusting God in the first place?
