Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead

Someone asked me why Jesus doesn't heal everybody today like he did in the Gospels. Here is my reply:

  • Jesus rose Lazarus from the dead but that doesn't mean Lazarus wasn't put back in the same tomb twenty years later.

  • Jesus healed Peter’s mother in law of a fever but that doesn't mean she never got sick again.

  • Jesus freed many people from the skin condition of leprosy but the Bible never mentions acne.

Any healing experienced in this life is foretaste of what is to come.

The healing of Jesus is a here but not yet. It's a victory before the victory. It's a sample taste of Heaven before getting to eat in the banquet.

Everybody who places their hope in Jesus will be fully healed when He comes back in His glory and power.

Until then we shout “Come soon Lord Jesus"!

You seem like you lift brah!

Jesus healed people to lend authenticity to his message. He gave the apostles the same power. for the same reason.

This is true as well.
