Secondly, they are only as strong as those scriptures on which the framework is based. Once these are targeted and examined the whole system collapses like a pack of cards. For this reason there is no need for me to attempt to refute every claim made by PH - which would require a volume larger than the original. Instead I will simply look at the 'linch-pin' scriptures on which his framework is based. PH imports the Pauline usage into the Gospels to support his thesis that Jesus only delivered Believers.
Evangelical commentators take a somewhat different view.
Jesus himself took the initiative. He pronounced her cured and she was made straight. Jesus did not usually lay hands on people when performing exorcisms. Once it is accepted that 'Children of Abraham' does not refer to Believers, but to Jews, the teeth of PH's argument are drawn. It is very difficult to accept PH's argument that all of Jesus' exorcisms were performed on believers.
