1 | Should we pray outside of God's will? | 1 Pet 2:24 | mitchm0521 | 166133 | ||
I have to agree with you, I will not sit here and give a detailed reason why bad things happen to good people. I can't answer that for anyone. All I can do, is read scripture, and know what the will of the Lord is. And we can tell from his word, 1 Peter 2:24 being one of them, that we are forgiven of our sins if we confess Jesus Christ and we also have physical healing. As you said, sickness did not exist in the garden. Sickness began when Adam sinned , it was brought to this planet by Satan. Or rather, not soley by him, but by him being a tempter, yet Adam transgressed, and allowed the seperation from God to occur, thus the curse showed up. So the way I like to ask it is this way. If what Satan did in Adam in the garden, meaning if Satan bringing death and sickness to this planet in his scheme he hatched in the garden, and got Eve to fall for it. And then Adam transgressed, if all that was able to bring sickness into this earth. IF a Christian says that Christ dying on the cross did not return us to a place where we have divine healing in our lives right now, then they are inheritly saying that what Satan did in the garden, was more powerful than what God did in Jesus on the cross. Because if through the death of his Son God could not only remove our sin, but remove our sickness as well, then we'd have to say that Satan's plan was much more powerful, because it not only brought sin, but it brought sickness. And let me tell you, as you all should wonderfully know. What God did in Jesus on the Cross, is FAR greater than what satan did in Adam in the garden! God Belss! |

2 | Should we pray outside of God's will? | 1 Pet 2:24 | MJH | 166143 | ||
You seem to be under the assumption that the work of the Messiah is complete. Certianly Jesus' death and resurrection are far greater than that of Satan, but we are still living in a world where the Kindgom of Death and the Kingdom of Life are a war. Satan has not yet been removed from the scene, and until Jesus' return and the strat of the World to Come, we will still experience the effect of a sinful world. To say we have physical healing in Messiah right now is failing to see reality. My argument is that such a state is not the "Will of God", but it does exist until the World to Come. MJH |
