Chat: God just decides not to heal some people for reasons known only to Himself.

As you study the Scriptures, you will find that God does NOT decide to withhold healing from anyone.  Some people do not receive it, but God has already provided it.  God has already decided to heal everyone just as definitely as He has decided to save everyone, though in both cases some people fail to receive what He already provided.

If God just decided not to heal people, it would have been evident in Jesus’ ministry, as He only did what the Father wanted Him to do.  There would be some case where He refused healing to someone and then refused to explain the refusal.  But it wasn’t just Jesus who decided who got healed.  The people who got healed actively sought out Jesus and went where He was.  They chose to listen to His teaching.  They chose to touch Him or His clothes and they received healing.  AS MANY AS TOUCHED HIM, not SOME OF THOSE WHO TOUCHED HIM, were made well.  However, there were surely some sick people around who did not go touch Him, and they were not made well.
