1 | Did Jesus go to hell? | 1 Peter | gracefull | 80745 | ||
I do believe all scriptural truth can be traced back to His teachings, although in the other letters, there is often much more detail. Let me ask you...Since physical healing was a MAJOR emphasis of His ministry, how do you think such a MAJOR exclusion as never telling ANYONE who asked for healing, that it was God's will for them to remain sick for awhile. Scripture takes it a step further...They were Not healed due to unbelief... Mark 6:5-6 And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. Jesus Himself, the son of God the Christ, the Messiah... Could do not mighty works because of THEIR unbelief.... I hope this explains my understanding of your question. God bless |

"I do believe all scriptural truth can be traced back to His teachings, although in the other letters, there is often much more detail." Then show me where Jesus condemned homosexuality. This is the same argument ("Jesus never mentioned it") that the pro-"gay Christian" people use. The fact is that all Scripture is God-breathed, and if there is significant teaching outside of the gospels on any matter, it doesn't matter if Jesus himself addressed it at length or not. "Since physical healing was a MAJOR emphasis of His ministry, how do you think such a MAJOR exclusion as never telling ANYONE who asked for healing, that it was God's will for them to remain sick for awhile." 1. I don't think it was nearly as major as you seem to think it is. How many of his miracles did not involve healing at all? Compare the number of references to Jesus healing to the number of parables He told. Add in all of the teaching moments, sermons, and so on. While His healing ministry was not tiny, it certainly wasn't a MAJOR focus of why He was here. In fact, I think it is safe to reasonably conclude that His healing of people was more about Himself than it was about their maldies. 2. While Jesus did heal the man born blind, was it God's will that he be blind from birth up until that moment? Didn't Jesus say that Himself? --Joe! |

Again, you attempt to divert from the subject by interjecting controversial debates off the subject... I will not participate. God bless |

My friend...what does homosexuality addressed in both the Old covenant and the New covenant have to do with the subject I was addressing. I was speaking of healing and there are many scriptures to compare on the subject in the New covenant alone. Jesus, in the gospels did not address homosexuality at all, however he addressed healing and faith almost/if not every chapter of the gospels. Your statement does not address scripture. God bless |

"My friend...what does homosexuality addressed in both the Old covenant and the New covenant have to do with the subject I was addressing." It has to do with your statement: "I do believe all scriptural truth can be traced back to His teachings, although in the other letters, there is often much more detail." The statements of Jesus, while absolutely true, are not more absolutely true than the other absolutely true statements of the Bible. "Jesus, in the gospels did not address homosexuality at all, however he addressed healing and faith almost/if not every chapter of the gospels." While He certainly did address it, I think you may be exagerrating here regarding just how much He did address it. And, as I have pointed out, we need to look at the whole counsel of God, rather than just a verse here and there which can be understood a number of ways outside of its context. So, it is anything but improper to bring in other Scripture passages (as you yourself have done, despite your protests) in order for us to thoroughly and thoughtfully examine the Scriptural support for a doctrine. --Joe! |

I agree, Jesus did not teach on homosexuality, and sinc I do believe the entire Bible is inspired (Holy Spirit breathed) the observation that Jesus never ever forbade healing for ANY reason does not prove anything scripturally, I do believe it should at least be a point to ponder, an eyebrow raiser, when going into the study of healing. Jesus attitude concerning healing and all the situations He addressed when healing are equally important with all other scriptures. If you do not see healing as a major point of Jesus ministry...OK. I do see it as a major point..I will move on now... God Bless, |
