There is no Power of God working through ANY Christian believers to heal and therefore there is no God.

There is not a single Christian that does what is commanded in the Bible. "Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy"

Christians will try and say that healing with God's power and such was only limited to Jesus and the Apostles to try and defend the fact that there is no one on Earth performing faith healing as Christians were commanded to. However this isn't aligned with the scripture in the Bible.

The interpretation that the "gifts of healings" and "workings of miracles" in 1 Corinthians 12:9–10 were exclusively limited to Jesus and the apostles is not supported by the broader context of the New Testament. This view seems to overlook how these spiritual gifts are described in the scriptures. Specifically, 1 Corinthians 12:7–10 suggests a more inclusive distribution of these gifts, stating, "To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good." It lists various gifts provided by the Spirit, including wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, and miracles, indicating that these were not reserved solely for the apostolic figures but were available to various members within the church community.

Moreover, 1 Corinthians 12:28 further differentiates the roles and gifts within the church by listing apostles, prophets, teachers, then miracles and healings as distinct functions and gifts within the church hierarchy. This distinction implies that the miraculous gifts of healing and other miracles were not confined to the apostles alone but were additional manifestations of the Spirit among the believers.

This perspective is reinforced in Paul's letter to the Galatians (Galatians 3:5), where he emphasizes that God supplied the Spirit and worked miracles among them not through adherence to the law but through faith. This suggests that these miraculous works were performed by believers, not limited to apostolic authority. This interpretation aligns with the view in 1 Corinthians 12 that the Holy Spirit distributes various gifts to different individuals within the church for the benefit of the whole community, not restricting powerful gifts like healings and miracles to a select few.

Instead, we are confronted with evidence Christians cannot do what was commanded of them and therefore God's power doesn't exist and therefore God is not real. Each time a Christian claims to have done a faith healing, they are exposed as a fraud.

Are you aware that one of the largest Christian leaders in modern times was exposed for rape, torture, abuse and intentional deception for status and financial gain? They had planned out each step of the deception with the fake Miracles he performed. TB Joshua BBC Documentary - you can check that out.

There have been many Christian leaders exposed as such but never once has there been evidence of actual Faith Healings. If God was real, his power would be working through his believers and they would be doing what was commanded of them.
