1 | Divine Healing? | Matthew | Chris | 3676 | ||
Sorry, I have, once again, failed to clarify my question. There is a 'theology' out in the charismatic world of Christianity today that says no christian has to be sick. They say that it is ALWAYS GOD's will for christians to be healthy, and if you're sick you must be doing something wrong. So, the conclusion is that all christians can receive a healing, if they have enough faith and do everything else that GOD wants them to do, this idea is what I was phrasing as Divine Healing. Do you believe in this idea? Do you know of any Scripture that would support it? The same movement is unearthing the idea that GOD is about to pour a financial anointing on believers, and we are going to be rich, so that GOD will be able to use our tithes. This message usually comes with a request for a 'seed' of faith to start the harvest of wealth. Is there anything is Scripture to support this idea? Please express your (everyone!!) opinion!! GOD bless!! |

2 | Divine Healing? | Matthew | thestraws | 39027 | ||
There is strong Scriptural evidence for Divine Healing. Of course, the incidents of healing occur throughout the Old and New Testaments. 2 Scriptures that cover it very well are: 1 Peter 2:24 - The work of Christ brings healing. John 9:1-7 (esp v 2). The man's blindness was not due to sin on his part. God had divinely appointed a time and place for the man to receive healing, so that He could be glorified. It is God's will for all of us to receive perfect and complete healing, but we live in bodies of flesh in a world that has been corrupted by sin. Not receiving a healing does not NECESSARILY mean something is wrong with us, but I do believe that there are many times we do not receive healing due to lack of fatih, but it's not a blanket rule. Ultimately our healing is in His hands, and it takes faith to receive it. That faith includes putting ourselves in the hands of a loving God Who knows what is best for us. One more note. For the Christian, I believe the ultimate healing takes place when we enter His presence for eternity, either by death or upon His return. There are times where we pray for healing, and the Lord answers it by bringing that person home. |
