1 | what about doing the work Jesus did ? | 1 Cor 12:28 | stjohn | 205546 | ||
Hi Tam: there's nothing to indicate in Scripture, that that particular illness was the infamous, "thorn in the flesh". Remember too that I never said that these gifts were not necessarily given today. I certainly do believe in miraculous healing! But given the type of circus sideshow charlatan activity we see so much of, I am more the a little skeptical, and that they are not as prevalent as some would have us to believe. I happen to think that anyone who has such a gift today, would do so under the strict direction of and guidance of the Holy Spirit, who by the way is not one to bring attention to Himself, but only to point to Jesus. I believe if and when they are used, they are used with utmost discretion. Not the kind of nonsense we see on tv. I also believe that If God wants to heal illness, He will heal it, He doesn't need healers. Even in those places and in countries that have so much sickness, the greater need still is to preach the Gospel, for it is the sick and broken spirit, that truly needs healing. Mark 16:15 And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. I'm getting down off this soapbox now, so if others want to discuss this, go for it, but I'm done, if you please. Shalom and God bless John |

2 | what about doing the work Jesus did ? | 1 Cor 12:28 | Tamara Brewington | 205560 | ||
Dear John, I hear that you are done... Why in the world did you bring it up as if you believed one thing and then change mid stream? Remember where you started? How do we end up here, but don't bother to answer that as you are done, it is a rhetorical question and it is not meant in ill will... What was that about? Going fishing or something? Did you catch something? This time I am really puzzled, you said you believe in healing folks of demons and laying on of hands to heal folks and here it appears to be a change of heart... We were in agreement about Charlatons... But say John after posting me that you were done you went on and on and on....? Okay my brother okay, I am just here to encourage you to feel comfortable okay about whatever okay? I don't have to understand anything at all here, I just have to love all of you... God Bless, Tam |

My dear sweet Sister, Tamara, I am so sorry, but huh? Tamara, let me please make this very, very clear.... I DID NOT POST, THE ORIGINAL QUESTION, .... So, how and where did I change my mind? Tamara, dear Sister, I answered jim and Lionheart, on what I considered a side issue. Tamara, will you please stop, reflect and read the whole thread, what I said, and what others said, who said it, and what it was about, before you post, please? Maybe you should get some rest, Tamara, you did say you have trouble sleeping. I love you too, dear heart.... Shalom and God bless John |
