"i dont think there was ANYTHING special about jesus. well, no more so than any of us:"
Trapper, I don't see how you could believe anything the bible says if you believe the statement you wrote here. The bible is ALL about how special Jesus is. Jesus is God and there is none like him. The Christian faith is about putting our hope in Jesus, and not in ourselves, because He is everything and we depend on him completely.
For Insight, I am one of those that would say that Jesus does heal in His right time. The bible teaches that Jesus does everything in His right time, so this would include healing. If a child of God doesn't receive healing until after death, well that is still the right time from God's perspective, and it should be from our perspective also if we are putting our hope in His will to be done and not our own will to be done.
