1 | Are terms being used synonymously? | 1 Cor 12:1 | Hiskid84 | 211111 | ||
I'm going to tiptoe in behind John here, to ask a question. Are the words "gift of healing" and "healing" being used synonymously in some posts? It seems a lot of discussion in favor of the gift of healing (regarding its validity today) is being based upon whether people are healed today. I thought John distinguished between the two when he wrote, "...no one has said that God cannot or does not perform miracles. But He does not give the gift of performing those miracles to individuals today as He did in the early Church." (Unfortunately, it seemed to get lost in the text that followed) So the question of whether the gift of healing is still bestowed upon those the Holy Spirit so chooses is not answered through proof that God still heals today. Which isn't to say proof should exist that God still heals "through certain idividuals" (the "gift" of healing) to prove its validity today. :) By His grace, hiskid |

Hi Hiskid: Thank you for your thoughtful response. Well said. I don't really want to get this thread going again, I just mostly wanted to extend a cordial greeting and a, "I'm so pleased to meetcha"! :-) You are indeed blessed my dear friend. Say hi to Doc for me and tell him he is, as always, in my prayers. I hope he is feeling better today. God bless John |
