Healing

Is any Among You Sick

James 5:14
James asks the question, "Are there any sick among you?" This makes me believe there should not be any sick in the Church. Maybe it could be said that sickness was not excepted or a common occurrence. This passage tells us what to do if they are sick, "call for the elders of the church,  anoint the sick with oil, and  pray the prayer of faith;  then the Lord will raise them healed and whole.
There is some confusion in the church concerning healing. Hebrews 12:6
This verse does not say,"Whom the Lord loves He makes sick." Some people  try to make this verse say that, or they say, "Whom God loves He punishes." This word "chasten" means "to educate or train " we might use the word "discipline ."
I love my children so I disciplined them growing up. God disciplines us and He trains us. He leads and guides us but He never makes us sick nor does He like an Oger waiting to beat us down.  Amen
