1 | Is healing a guarantee?? | Is 53:5 | Raindrop_if | 105589 | ||
Some say that healing is in the atonement and that all are to be healed and then others say that maybe GOD gives some a disease for a reason. Is healing a guarantee?? I know there are a lot of scriptures saying that it is guaranteed we just have to ask, but there is a scripture in 2 timothy 4:20 that says "...he left tropimus sick...." If it is his will that everyman be healed why was that one man left unhealed??? | ||||||

Psalm 103 (KJV) 2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; *Does he forgive ALL your iniquities? If your answer is yes then he heals ALL of your diseases. Mark 16:18 (KJV) They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. It says they SHALL recover. Not they MIGHT. James 5 (KJV) 14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. Once again it says they SHALL be raised up. Not they MIGHT. But in this verse it is a question of FAITH. Jesus said Luke 18:8 b (KJV) Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? It is a question of faith. You can say I believe, but do you have the faith? |

punkiedo, No, healing IS NOT a guarantee! I must side with kalos on this matter for good reason. The primary emphasis of the miracles done by Jesus were not for the benefit of the healed, but rather to authenticate and validate His ministry. They were to show that He was truly the Messiah (John 4:48). Come now, if you truly believe what you said about Mark 16:18, that "It says SHALL recover. Not they might",then I suggest you ingest some form of deadly poison and report back to us Monday! It's not that the text wasn't true (or isn't true today), but in context it was Christ's authentication for the disciples minisitry (vs. 17). The "those who believed" is refering to the disciples, not EVERY believer that follows. Now, this is not to say that God can't or won't heal today. He does! We need to ask the question whether this verse is prescriptive or descriptive of it's matter. I would submit Mark 16:16-18 IS NOT a normative prescription by which we live today.

BTW my bible says thou shalt not tempt the lord your God. So no I would never knowingly ingest something to see if he would heal me. God gives us common sense. Get real! | ||||||
