There were many in Bro. Branhams meetings that if it was not Gods will for them to be healed... they would indeed leave unhealed
He could heal him. It was not God's will. However we know why....so the glory of God can be seen. So then how does this compare to what Bro Epley was talking about?? Some woman was told she WOULD be healed and was NOT healed and was also NOT raised from the dead soon after.

BTW the statement of Jesus was NOT meant to mean Lazarus would not die, but did. Rather the statement was to the point that the PURPOSE of the illness was not to take Lazarus's life but for the purpose of the Son's Glory.
