Another passage of scripture to support Paul not being sick is 2nd Corinthians 11:21-29 “I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit, whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly) I am bold also. Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in deaths oft. Of the Jews five time received I forty stripes save one. Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep; In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils of false brethren; In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness. Besides those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches. Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?”
It goes right on into the 12th chapter where Paul calls it his “thorn in the flesh.” Can you see after naming all those things, he never once mentioned sickness as being one of his problems. Now, I am not so naive as to say that Paul never had a problem with battling sickness. Maybe he reached the place of divine health that I believe is possible. I believe I have known of people who have done it, who have walked in divine health, which is God’s most perfect and divine will for our lives. GOD IS NOT A RESPECTER OF PERSONS! As is YOUR FAITH so be it unto YOU!
