WHY ALL ARE NOT HEALED
PART ONE
Since it isso clearly evened everywhere
Loughout the Scriptures that our Heaven

out day who sec healing, fil to rceive i?
This isthe question ia the minds of many
honest inquires. ‘There are any answer’
to this question, which we will bly men
tin singe by these answers, any who had
failed to recive healing, have been enabled
to locate themselves, ater which they bave

Fint: Ignorance of this—physical healing

ings the word of God. Many in our day

towards sickness as fully revealed in the
Gospels. In this day oppostion often takes
the place of united proper: unblit takes
the place of united faith; lokewarmness the
Place of being spilled, as all were in
{he early church." So Twill a the question,
May ot the blane for the failure of some

This is done i place of obeying the plain
command to anoint aoy sick in the church
and to pray the prayer of faith for thei
healing, ‘which John Wesley says was the
only process of Healing in the church until
it was lost through unbelief. Now if itis
true, a5 many are taught, that they can glorify
God more by remaining sick than by being
healed, then’ Jesus hesitated aot to rob the
Father of all the glory He possibly could by
healing everyone that appeiled to Him for
help during His entice earthly ministry. And
His successor, the Holy Spirit, who was
sent down to augment what Christ had be
sun to do and to teach, hesitated not t0 rob
God of all the glory He could by healing ia
the streets of Jerusalem (Acts 3:13, 16)
and Paul didnot hesitate to rob Him of all
