David, I used to think this also, but I wonder...didn't the Lord send sickness and disease as part of His judgments in the Bible? Do you mean He won't send it upon His true children who are walking righteously? Izzy

Chastisement in the form of sickness is not direct action on God's part. Do you think God puts sickness upon people? Which of us would chastise our children by infecting them purposefully with disease? What would you think of me if you learned that I purposefully infected my children with disease? Surely we cannot ascribe such abhorrent actions to a holy God. If we being evil do not do this to our children, then neither does a holy God do that to his children. ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
