True and False, Yes and No Questions without answers
76] True or False: We can know for sure that the same Personality who healed the sick, cleansed the lepers and raised the dead has promised, and has the power to forgive our sins, cleanse our bodies and spirits, and eventually resurrect us from the dead.   

77] True or False: To understand the Practical application of healing today, several complex interrelationships (such as between faith and healing, and faith and medical procedures) need to be considered.     

78] True or False: The human body was designed to die.   

79] True or False: God could, if He so desired, preserve physical existence to eternity.  However He chooses not to do this.  

80] True or False: Healing pertains to this life alone and is a short-term, although important concern.     

81] True or False: One's ultimate reward in the Kingdom will be based on whether he or she were ever healed in this physical life.  

82] True or False: When we pray to be healed and are not healed, we should necessarily assume a lack of faith, unrighteousness, and/or insufficient spirituality on our part.     

83] True or False: Neither healing nor the lack of it are an indication of one's level of faith or spirituality.    

84] True or False: God sometimes heals the new convert and the spiritually immature, while he may withhold it from the mature Christian.

86] True or False: Jesus once stated, "Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe."     

87] True or False: God may heal to show mercy, to express love, to encourage the spiritually weak, to reinforce faith and/or as a witness of the gospel.    

88] True or False: God may heal a person as a witness for other people to see.  In other words, God had those seeing the healing more in mind that the one healed.

92] True or False: There is no way of knowing in advance whether any person will be supernaturally healed.     

93] True or False: The Church teaches that its ministry must not attempt to influence the person in any way regarding what type of action he may wish to take for his health other than to recommend that each person seek the most professionally competent specialists available for consultation or procedure.     

94] True or False: The relationship between healing and faith is simple rather than complex.     

95] True or False: In all the recorded healings of the Bible, the person being healed demonstrated a faith that Jesus could and would do it.   

96] True or False: Christians must learn to work up the faith required for healing.    

97] True or False: Only God can supply the faith needed for healing.    

98] True or False: An actual healing or lack of healing must never be viewed as a straightforward indication of an individual's righteousness, spirituality or favor with God.    

99] True or False: It is our responsibility to yield to God and His Spirit so that we may grow in God-given faith.    

100] True or False: The lack of faith is not sin, nor is the lack of healing a sin.
