Why are religions exclusionary, when Jesus healed those not included and even considered sinners? I copied and pasted this from an AI query.
- The Centurion's Servant (Matthew 8:5–13): Jesus praised the Roman centurion for having greater faith than anyone in Israel, healing his paralyzed servant from a distance.
- The Canaanite/Syrophoenician Woman’s Daughter (Matthew 15:21–28): Despite initial reluctance, stating his mission was to the "lost sheep of Israel," Jesus commended her persistence and faith, healing her demon-possessed daughter.
- The Gadarene Demoniac (Mark 5:1–20): In the Gentile region of the Gerasenes, Jesus cast "Legion" out of a man, freeing him from possession.
- The Deaf and Mute Man (Mark 7:31–37): This healing occurred in the Decapolis, a, region comprised largely of ten Greek cities, showing his ministry extended into pagan territory.
- The Samaritan Leper (Luke 17:11–19): Among ten lepers healed, only the Samaritan—a mixed-race foreigner often treated as an outcast by Jews—returned to give thanks
