EdB, Greetings EdB, good to hear from you this new year, but not a surprise that you would respond to my post :) Ed, the issue has never been, "a true christian will never get sick," and diffently not the idea that God allows us to be sick! How do you chasten your children, to correct them?Then why do you assume God will chasten His children with sickness, to correction? Phl 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things. I believe what is true, and God is still healing today, and that the men and women of God are anointed to come against satan's scheme's. Ed, you and I have debated this topic, and I don't see how any further discussion would be of any benefit to either of us. God bless you |

Inmyheart You said "Ed, the issue has never been, "a true christian will never get sick," That is exactly the issue. That is what Word of Faith teaches. If that is not what you believe, good for you, and maybe you should stop defending those that teach it. I really don't believe you understand all that your defending. WoF has twisted scripture in such a way that if you get sick it is only for one of two reasons. One you spoke it into existence in your life or you sinned. They make the flat statement if your a true Christian you will not get sick. I'm not some bad person trying to steal other people's healing. I'm trying to show people that yes Chrsitians do get sick and that God still cares about them. Then if they find themselves sick they don't have to worry what is wrong with them, or ask why God doesn't love them. If Christians never get sick why would James 5:14-15 be int he Bible written to Christians? EdB |

EdB, Does not James 5: 14, 15 prove that a physically sick person will surely be restored to health if he calls in the elders of the church to anoint him with literal oil and to offer the prayer of faith over him? The true Christian who desires to do only God’s will rather than to follow the desires of his flesh, will be very careful not to misapply this Scripture. To do so would be to follow Satan’s example (Matt. 4: 6). James 5: 14, 15 does not refer to physical illness at all, but to spiritual illness. To apply these verses to physical illness would be to make God’s Word appear untrue and would tend to make people become infidels; for many sincere people have done literally all the things here specified, in their efforts to obtain recovery from physical ailments, only to reap disappointment and cause to some to lose faith, wondering why God did not keep His promise that "the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up." EdB, I'm praying for you also, really, this will be our last post concerning this topic. God bless |

Inmyheart Whew you sure threw a curve ball that time. You are either messing with me or very confused. One minute you are supportting the teaching that God has to do what ever a perosn has faith for and in the next your saying many times people come to God in faith and don't recieve what they ask.
