Our bodies are nothing different till Christ returns, no exceptional dna, no magic incantations, no tricks.
Where did Jesus say christians are the perfect ones, that's an insult to humanity, to everyone
Yet when one believes in Jesus, that faith allows the physical body to slowly heal.
Examples are when the common cold virus hits everyone in a company of maybe a 100 people, yet the Christians only sneeze or cough once.
"Perfect" as in common sense as they understand that the 'perfect' way back into the Book of Life is through Christ's Blood Atonement on the Cross. He is the one and only way back to life [John 14:6]
Humanity that believes that they can enter Heaven via their works are still living in the Old Testament.

How can Adam and Eve who were created perfect disobey God? In order to disobey God you would have to be imperfect and have sin in you.

Actually - that Adam sinned was an act of great sacrifice and love.
Eve - did not sin - she was lied to and coerced by satan.
Adam - when he saw what Eve had done? He knew she was in some big trouble with God. Big trouble.
But Adam loved Eve so very much - he chose to enter into sin for her.
A foreshadow of Christ's sacrifice right there in the garden.
Sin will never triumph. From the conception of sin - Christ was there already showing us we would be saved.

The books of 1 Timothy 2:14 and 2 Corinthians 11:3 agree that Eve was deceived. But Adam wasn't. He just flat broke the rules and sinned. The Genesis account clearly states that he was there. “She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.” He was with her, and he was responsible for her. Romans 5:12 credits Adam for the sin, not Eve. “Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned.”

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do - it's such a fantastic truth! He loved her that much, Adam, that he gave his life for her. Just as Christ did later for all of us who are called...

What
Christians don't get colds?
Christians heal better than others?
Where do you get this from?
It's a lie
What does salvation in Christ have to do with the christians having some magic ability to heal.
It's just not true
Where in the bible does it say christians bodies physically heal better than non Christians, or faster, or anything like that
It's a disservice to christianity to say anything like that
So far, 100% of Christians get sick, get old and die, just like everyone else.

So all those christians in Syria, Libya, Rome, Europe, the apostles, they were not Christians because they all died, murdered, slain, caught diseases
you remind me of Wesboro baptist christians
