1 | If we ask for healing does God answer no | 1 Peter | Morant61 | 146639 | ||
Greetings Mitch! Thanks for the response my friend! Your explanation doesn't make logical sense my friend. If healing it already an accomplished fact (as part of the atonement) then Christians should never get sick - period! When you accept Christ, are you saved? Yes! You don't have to wait for some future day to be saved. You are saved already because of what Christ did on the cross. The same should be true of physical healing if it were also part of the atonement. As far as prayer goes, I don't pray to be sick, but I do pray that God's will be done in my life. If that were to include sickness, then so be it. You mention receiving healing. If physical healing is part of the atonement, then I should receive it as soon as I am saved, not at some future date. Or, do you believe that you can accept parts of salvation and reject other parts? Finally, all death and sickness is the result of the fall of Adam. Yet, Christians still die! Death, even a peaceful one, is still the failure of your body to live. It is caused by some 'sickness' or 'failure'. A healthy person doesn't die! ;-) (Except in cases of violence, but even then the death is the result of damage done to the once healthy body) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Yes, some people do reject knowledge Sir. We all have seen that, some people have been saved, but rejected the fact they needed to get into a Church, change some of the things in their lives, therefore they have falled back into sin, and are worse than they started. We have all seen that happen I'm sure. Secondly, Healing is provided with the atonement, just as salvation is. You said you don't have to wait for some future day to be saved, thats not totally correct. You have to wait untill the day you RECIEVE salvation, meaning, you aren't saved, untill you confess Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead. What I'm asking is that God has provided your salvation on the cross. But did you get it at birth? Or did you have to recieve God's gift? As for Christians getting sick, healing doesn't mean sickness won't come. You can't heal anything that doens't need healed. You understand what I mean? Let me try to put it a differnt way... I can be a auto mechanic, but I can't repair anything untill someone brings me their car. God has provided healing to all, because in the fall, when sin entered this world, sickness and diease enterned this world, just as much as seperation from God entered this World. Now God, in his wonderful mercy, has made sure we can come back into right standing with him, if we will recieve the gift of salvation, and he will make sure we can be healed anytime we need it if sickness comes into our life. I hope I've made that a bit clearer for you. And for your last comment, when a person has ran their course, and lived the years promised them by God, and they are ready to go home to be with the Lord, then they can simply, give up their life. Let me try to put it this way, I can have a nice car and either wreck it, and never be able to drive it again, or finally get to the point where I say, you know, I'll just get out of it, and walk away from it, and get something better. There will come a time in my life when I am a very old man ( 120 at least ) that I will know the Lord is calling me home, and my Spirit will leave this World and go to the father. Call it 'failure' if you want, but I don't think you can call me failing, for choising to go home to Christ. What I'm saying, is that I believe someone can die, and it not be the result of sickness or any form of evil complications. Hope thats helped some Sir, Mitch |

Mitch ::: Here is an example of what I cautioned you about in my previous post to you: You write, "He (God) will make sure we can be healed anytime we need it if sickness comes into our life." ..... Now, Mitch, what I want you to do is give this Forum a Bible book, chapter and verse that teaches any such thing. ..... Mitch, you are continuing to post nothing but opinion after opinion. That is not what this Forum is about. If you insist on having it your way, resisting reform urged by your peers on the Forum, and continuing to refuse to comply with Forum guidelines, you put your privilege to post in jeopardy. --Hank | ||||||

1 Peter 2:24 will show you that you are healed by the stripes of Jesus. ( I believe I already posted this one, with many others ) can you tell me how to find out a post number so I can just refer you to where I've already typed it all out instead of having to repeat it all over again? | ||||||
