1 | gifts of Healing and Miracles for today. | 1 Cor 12:9 | royalone | 187027 | ||
Noted a response by Hank concerning John McArthur bible stating that no one has or operates in the gift of healing today.This is not what the Bible says. If you noticed in Luke 10vs1.Not only were the Apostles given authority to cast out demons,heal the sick and raise the dead but also here in Luke 70 others who were not Apostles. Look at Luke 10:17 Lord,even the demons are subject to us in your name. Also if you look at the Gifts to Gods people you will see in 1 Cor 12:7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.Further reading in verses 9 and 10 indicate gifts of healing and miracles.Why? look at 1 Cor 12:11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills. Now for the clincher. 1 Cor 12:28 And God has appointed in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, various kinds of tongues. This is the new testament church for today beyond the apostles.To me anyone who says miracles are not for today needs to read these scriptures. Van | ||||||

Hello van, I hope the following scriptures will be edifying. Mark 16:17,18 John 14:12-14 Unless Jesus has changed then what Jesus has said concerning those that believe still stands. M.Royal |

Hello M Royal, No offense intended, but I think that to say what you did, is an over-simplistic response. It's too "cut-and-dried". Here's a perspective for point of reference on John 14:12: John Mitchell writes- "May I ask, do you do the works He did? What did He do? He cleansed the lepers, He cast out demons, He healed the sick, He opened the eyes of the blind. He made the lame to leap like a hart. He raised the dead. He stilled the storm. Can you do that? Now don’t pick out one thing and say, “This is what we are to do. Heal the sick.” If this applies to you, then everything He did you are to do. Do you do them? Do you know of anyone who does? He goes even further than that and says, “Greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” Greater than raising the dead? Greater than cleansing the lepers? Greater than opening the eyes of the blind? Yes, when Jesus Christ walked among men He touched them in their physical needs. He then ascended to the right hand of the Majesty on high, and from there was, and is today, doing a greater work through His people. We today, as the disciples of old, have a message that will bring men to eternal life. Man is under the sentence not only of physical death, but of eternal death. Jesus said to those of His day, “Don’t fear him that can kill the body, but fear him who can cast both body and soul into hell.” But we have a blessed message of deliverance for all who desire it. Jesus said, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my Word and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life.” When our Lord raised Lazarus and others from the dead, death came again to them, but the new life He gives today is one over which death does not even cast a shadow. It is eternal life in His Son. This is our message. These are the greater works."

Hello BradK, Please be aware that I have only reported what Jesus said would happen concerning those that believe, remember we do not all have the same gifts (1Corinthians 12:28-31) M.Royal |
