I thought I had been healed recently as I had a job and girlfriend very recently. I thought these were from God because I thought he was saying so.
I don't have either now. I do everything like pray,go to church, I went to several exorcists to see if that was the problem. I watched Derek Prince videos about curse breaking.

But I'm in a similar situation to twenty years ago.


Are you reading the bible daily, more than you read anything else? And are you abiding in Christ with every action you take?

Wasn't he the one who designed our bodies and minds to be susceptible to disease?

I left that to my doctors.
Many people worship at the alter of baal. You are not alone.

What do rape kits have to do with it?
Don't you know that wanting to have your heart resuscitated is worshipping at the altar of baal?

See? If you didn't get healed by Jesus it's because you didn't Christian hard enough.

They always find a way to shift the blame so that if their healing doesn't work it's your fault instead of theirs.

If someone keeps telling you to stop believing or that your life experiences are invalid because they are influenced by your faith, call me, I'll step in.
It's called boundaries.

Not at all - but there has to be a limit when Christianity is weaponized against others.
See here, for example: viewtopic.php?uid=41285&f=20&t=411039&start=32#p9215529

Frankly, there are some politicians who “weaponize” religion in order to suppress and oppress people.

To be honest - any system of moral values has a potential of being weaponised and abused in hands of some populists.
That does not necessarily make the moral values themselves wrong. Hypocrisy is pretty universal.

Blaming the victim is stock-in-trade of the self-righteous.  Ask them why there is no verifiable proof of a person's missing limbs or organs being restored through faith and prayer.  Ask why a decapitated or dismembered person's family cannot pray the dead person whole again no matter how hard they pray or how strong their faith may be.  Ask them why faith and prayers do not correct the altered DNA that causes cancers and hideous deformities in newborn children.  Finally, ask them why evangelical "faith healers" get caught time and time again faking their "cures".

Chances are that the victims will be blamed.

This is just as harmful for the religion being weaponized as it is for the groups it is being weaponized against.

Jesus would be appalled by what Christianity has become.
