I think you believe you have seen multiple healings first-hand. I do not think you have actually seen multiple healings first-hand. How would one go about verifying these healings? Gather medical records, eliminate alternative explanations, follow-up with the people who claim to be healed, etc…. You have to be super honest with yourself: have you done these things? People get sick and get better for many different reasons, and we can be thankful to God for all of those reasons, but to claim that healings are taking place similar to those recorded in Scripture is an extraordinary claim that requires extraordinary evidence. Also, be careful if your experiences lead you to exaggerated loyalty or admiration of a particular teacher or secondary doctrine. God bless you. This will be my only response. This is an issue I am familiar with and have a particular opinion about that I am not going to change based on a conversation with you on Medium. However, I understand why fellow Christians hold different opinions and look forward to the day we have all our questions answered. In the meantime, I hope to not be a jerk about these disagreements if I turn out to be wrong.
