Even Jesus couldn't heal everyone

[Petrus50]

Lately I stumbled upon some more info about WMB and the link with mormonism. There are striking similarities with LDS and some prophecies about him brought to him from members of LDS.

There are a number of parallels with LDS and WMB.

1. Angelic visitation.
2. Corrupt systems.
3. Restorationism
4. Prediction of the end.
5. Prophet promised.

There was a William Branham in one of the LDS splinter groups sending "that" WB to ministry. However, it wasn't Willaim Marrion Branham. And even here it is said he changed his name from "branan" to "branHAM" so that it would have seven letters. It is also said he change the middle name to show 7 letters. His "numerology" scheme wasn't the Biblical numerology but a mere version tweaked into his own system.

Here again, one must simply take his word for it.

Shalom.

Only difference is in LDS there was no healing of the sick.

In BELIEVE YE THAT I CAN DO THIS? LOS ANGELES , Californië May 9, 1951:

In this document these mormons brought to him a book ,he clearly took this prophecy for him, first he talked about the prophecy about himself from evangelists belonging to Assemblies of God and than
he said:
"And then one night , ...and there was a man standing there. And he had a book under his arm. He kept telling me ' Brother Branham you're in the wrong church'. It was called the mormon word of God. It's one of their prophets of the LDS. ...I have the book in my library. ...It prophecied , the prophet , and said, , that ' in the last days that Germany would have a ism called nazi's'
And it went ahead and said ,'In that day , let W-i double l-i-a-m Branham be called and set aside in humility for the service that I have called him to'.
That's right. Wrote years...

Yes there was another W.B. in the LDS but it seems this prophecy was about him, WMB saw it like that. In fact there were Branhams of the founders of LDS.

Didn't now they believe in healing.

Does Dr Vaughn recognize healing and miracles are two different things? Jesus may not have performed the miraculous because of unbelief, but it didn't stop him from healing those who came to him.

If doubt stopped Jesus from performing miracles, who was the person that believed Christ would raise Lazerus from the dead? Everyone raised questions of unbelief. Who was the person who said I believe Jesus is going to raise Lazerus from the dead?

There are other cases where Christ did miracles in the presence of doubt.

The Greek word for unbelief in the text in Mark is apistia. Apista has other definitions including distrust. If you read the various accounts, the hometown leaders went a step further than unbelief. They ridiculed Christ. It was their sarcasm that made Jesus decide not to perform miracles.

The Bible is full of miraculous events in the midst of doubt. For every confident David, there is a doubting Gideon.

I think the reason Jesus didn't heal many people in Nazareth was because a few people showed up with needs. While miracles didn't happen, it's safe to assume that Jesus healed all who came to him.

Pls see that I'm just nailing you here,
taking a different position that seems valid
to me at the moment; I doubt I disagree
with your premise, but my reply seemed
in context with your post, which seems to
deny free will.

God cannot do certain things, either;
I'm sure you would agree?

Jesus never told anyone they were healed personally and they died or did not get well. Branham did.

Bro. Eply, of course I would never doubt your word.. However, I am going to ask you for the quote, the verifiable record where this happened.....
