Chat: You believe that God heals today and that He generally wants everyone healed, although there are exceptions.

What would make someone an exception?

I don’t know; God just decides not to heal some people for reasons known only to Himself.

God leads some people through times of sickness to help them grow spiritually.

God gives some people a thorn in the flesh as He did to Paul.

Someone could be another Job.

There was some reason why Timothy, Trophimus and Epaphroditus were exceptions because Paul could not heal them.

God has not promised to heal everyone, so some people have to stay sick.  It’s just part of life.

God knows that some people are suffering so badly that they would be better off dead, so He lets them die.

God doesn’t heal your FINAL ILLNESS that He uses to take you home.

It’s all explained on my favorite “Heresy Hunter” website.

I can’t think of a reason.  I guess God doesn’t make exceptions after all.  He DOES want me to be well.
