Objection: Jesus Never Failed to Heal Anyone but No One Today Has His Track Record

This is a cousin of the previous objection, and the same responses apply here.  No one has duplicated His love walk, His never having missed God’s will in anything or His total victory over sin, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make His perfection our goal even though we fall short.

However, this objection carries other flaws.  Jesus could not do miracles at Nazareth (Mark 6:1-6), so the objector, if he lived in Jesus’ day, would probably accuse Him of “failing” to heal His hometown crowd.  The power of the Lord was present to heal the religious leaders in Luke 5:17-26, but none of them was healed.   The objector would probably see this as a “failure” to heal the sick as well.

A servant is not above his master.  What Jesus “failed” to do, we will also “fail” to do when presented with the same circumstances of unbelief.

Matthew 10:24:
The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord.

If you go to a church full of people who don’t believe in healing and who cite the objections in this book, don’t be surprised when they don’t all get healed.  The surprise would be if ANY of them gets healed!

Another flaw is the presupposition that healing people is only based on your faith, so if a person is not healed, your faith is to blame.  That is contradicted by the many times that Jesus told a person, “YOUR faith has made you well.”  The faith of the people has something to do with it do, or else Jesus lied.  Note that He never told a sick person, “MY faith has made you well.”  See the discussion According to YOUR FAITH Be It Done unto You for further proof and elaboration on this point.
