If God can create miracles why can't he cure cancer?

Conspiracy Theorists will tell you that there IS a cure for cancer and many other things that afflict man. The reason that we aren't disease-free is that MAN makes money from the suffering of others. Ironically, he makes money from pleasure too.\n\nOn the other hand, imagine a world in which all cures were available. There would be no consequences to our actions; eating too much, smoking, drinking, having sex,  all forms of physical abuses could be fixed.  NO consequences?!?  Perhaps God gave us diseases as a trial, tribulation or speedbump. We learn from those that are sick, being sick ourselves and from those that have died as a result of illnesses.  It is often a sad time but mostly reflective and I believe that is the point.

My mother as well died of cancer.  Yet, while cancer is horrible in this present age, it may find a redeeming value in the future once we discover a way to control it.  Many diseases may be cured through the technology and treatments of cancer.  It is terrible now and many many have lost loved ones, but I firmly believe everything in its season will produce the good that God designs for it.  \n\nWe live in the shadow of ignorance which is the cause of the pain and destruction in which we live.  Jesus life death and resurrection proves that our current trials are not permanent.\n\nAcne and flatulence are the same way.  There may be a positive reason for their existence.  Seriously!\nGod is in control and turns lemons into lemonade each and every moment.  Ask for the Grace to see.

I know of at least two things that your god can't do:\n\n1) He can't defeat an army that uses iron chariots. (It's in the Book of Judges, you can look it up.)\n\n2) He can't make me believe in him.\n\nI wonder what else he can't do.

In the past, God did do that. He performed miracles for the Israelites such as the plagues, he got them through the Red Sea, he provided manna for them in the wilderness so that they could survive but even with all that - they still did not do the one thing he asked of them which was to obey him and no other.  So, do you really think that if he provided proof of his existence through a miracle or something that people would believe in him??? The Israelites didn't. But do you know that he does provide proof of his existence today? How you say? Well, look around you - the earth and it's many beautiful and wonderful creations - to start with, there is us as humans. Only a higher power could of created such an intrensic, complex being. There is animals, all of their different kinds, plants, flowers... all of this is a testament to God who created it! He also has provided the bible - which is like a letter from a Father to his children. This provides everything we need to know about how this earth was created, where we have been and where we are going. \nI don't think that by God just appearing or providing a miracle to prove he exists would really do much in making people believe in him - just remember the Israelites.

Yes,nothing is impossible for God.  He said in His Word that without FAITH it is impossible to please Him.  You, your aunt and any other born-again believers need to be in agreement(by that I mean get together by phone or in person) and state out of you mouths that this is what you are expecting, not wanting to know if He will, but expecting Him to do.  He says that we can call those things that be not as though they were.  Speak health into your aunts' body.  Did you know that God searches the world over trying to find that one with the faith that He may move on their behalf?  Once He has healed her, be sure to give Him thanks and the Glory.  I know first hand what it is like.  My mother had a brain tumor the size of a grapefruit the doctors said.  The road to her recovery wasn't instantaneous.  But I can say that thru prayer, the Lord and her doctors, 9 years later she is still here.  She is not the mother that we knew before, SHE IS BETTER.  I give God the glory and the praise for that.  I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ for I know Him and who He is.   May God Bless Aunt Cee Cee and you.

A miracle is something that happens when God intervenes in the time-space continuum and defies natural laws and principles to bring about an occurrence unaccounted for in those laws and principles. A regular person cannot perform a miracle because a person is bound by the laws and principles of the time-space continuum.

How come the Holy spirit doesn't cure everyone?

The most powerful thing God can do is not exist.

There are over 100 cures already available.\n\nhttp://dgwa1.fortunecity.com/body/cancer.html

yes it's true.  My Uncle's Mother in law died from a curable disease, because her religion forbade her from using medicine or doctors.  Christian Scientists believe that if you are supposed to be healed, he will heal you directly, rather than using someone elses talent and knowledge to heal you.\n\nTo Christian Scientists:  Why do you think God gave the doctors the ability to do what they do?  Maybe you have heard this anecdote, and it describes the Christian Scientist perfectly:\n\nA man lived in a house on a flood plain.  When spring came, and rain fell, the water began to rise, a police officer came to his house urged him to come with him, because the water would rise to a dangerous level.  The man said "Don't worry, God will save me if he loves me."  and the officer left.  Pretty soon, the water was to roof level on the man's house.  A rescue boat came by and tried to rescue the man from his roof.  The man said "Leave me alone! If God wants me to live, he'll save me!"  So the boat reluctantly trolled away.  Not long after, the water was well over the level of the roof, and the man was desparately treading water.  A rescue helicopter above lowered a rescue diver.  The man said to the diver "Go on without me, if God wants me to live, he'll save me."  Reluctantly, the diver returned to the helicopter.  It wasn't long after this, the man drowned.  When he got to heaven, he asked God "why didn't you save me?  I waited, and I waited."  God looked at him in disbelief and said, "What?! Why didn't you go with that officer I sent, or that rescue boat, or that helicopter?\n\nThe moral here?  God puts us all on earth with talent to use in order to better serve him.  Doctors and scientists find cures for diseases and sickness by using their God-given talents, so using cures and treatments is acknowledging God's vast wisdom and how he gave these talents to doctors and scientists.

Cancer is not one disease, but many different diseases with different causes. For that reason, one breakthrough "cure for cancer" is probably not likely to come along.

You have this disease for a reason.  God wants to work through you to help other people.  Perhaps there's a purpose still for you in this world.  Sometimes people who are ill and still show love and tell of God's love and kindness can have the greatest effect on others.  That's the way it was for my grandmother who brought more people to believe in God while she was bedridden than she ever did before her brain tumor.  God has a wonderful plan for you, even if it's difficult to see through the pain.  Remember--it is only temporary, even though it seems forever.  I would suggest reading:  Psalm 38, and 91, and the story of Job (in the book of Job)

A miracle is an unexplainable but seemingly benevolent act. Many such events happen all of the time. We just don't necessarily attribute them to God any more.

first of all miracles happen all the time. second of all just because you do not hear of the blind man seeing and the lame man walking does not mean it does not exist. the world is large and some places are remote not to mention the fact that their are people who like to cover things up. besides the only people who performed those miracles were jesus, who is not on earth, and his closest deciples. we in general have lost the faith it takes to do those miracles enyway that may be why they dont occoure often lack of faith in a seculure society. besides if a blind man was cured they would find a way to credit it to science. so in answer to your question. people are not walking with christ like they are supposed to and miricales do happen all the time and yes i am sure that the big miricals happen all the time. here is something to ponder to. a person has a car wreck and is pronounced legaly dead. the person is brought back to life by the medical team. the non belivers will say that person is lucky and the doctor did it. the christian will say what a miracal, a great doctor, and of course God performed he miracal of letting him live!

My dad had colon cancer a couple of years ago. He made it through and is now cancer free by the grace of God. Many people prayed for him and still do. I will pray for your dad. God made us and he can fix us if we only ask and believe.
