(1)Isaiah 53:4, 5; Matthew 8:16,17 and James 5:14-16, show that physical healing for ANY generation is provided at the cross. I was prayed for and God healed me--I didn't just "claim" I was healed. Claiming my healing means that I hold onto my healing and don't let Satan take it from me. A lot of times when people are healed, Satan will come and try to tell you that you are not healed, but by "claiming" your healing, you hold onto it and don't let Satan take it away from you. | ||||||

I apologize for lumping everybody in together and thinking you all believe "once saved, always saved." You say healing is a gift. Salvation is a gift, too. Sickness and disease are consequences of the fall. The provision of Christ's atonement was complete and adequate for redeeming the whole person--spirit, soul, and body. I do not see how claiming physical healing was provided for at the Cross is adding to scripture. Please explain. Thank you. Janae. |

Dear EdB: See, here is where we differ, also. For I believe that one can lose his salvation. Not that God would take it away, but that one can pull himself away from God and lose his salvation. Salvation is provided for in the atonement, but it can be lost. I know you believe "once saved, always saved," but I do not believe that. Matthew 7:21-23 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Matthew 19:16-26 16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? 17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. 18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, 19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? 21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. 22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions. 23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. 25 When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved? 26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Mark 9:42-48 (Jesus, talking to the Disciples) 42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. 43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: 48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Luke 6:46-49 46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? 47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: 48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. 49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great. I have many more scriptures to show that salvation can be lost. Maybe we had better agree to disagree. Janae. |

Dear Kalos, Praise Be To God! Yes, He is the Healer, PRAISE HIS NAME! But why do you put forth articles to the contrary? Janae. |

106 | claiming things in your life | Is 53:5 | Praise Be To God | 136147 | ||
Kalos, I appreciate you going to all the trouble of getting these articles which talk about God "always" healing, but I did not say that God always heals. I said healing is AVAILABLE through Christ's atonement. Just because some doctor says that there is no physical healing in the atonement, that does not mean that he is right. I know differently. God reached down and healed me! I am not making it up. Love in Christ, Janae. |

Dear Hank, You are right about preaching of the gospel being the most important message in the Word of God. All I am saying is that healing is also available through Christ's atoning blood, and you can choose to believe it or not. I choose to believe it. I want all that God has for me. Just because I don't interpret the Word of God in the same manner as you do, does not mean that I am wrong and you are right. Sin and death are consequences of the fall, but God's provision in redemption is as extensive as the consequences of the fall. For Sin, God provides forgiveness; for death, God provides eternal and resurrection life; and for sickness, God provides healing. If you cannot see that Psalm 103:3 expresses that, I cannot make you see it. Clearly, I am from a different denomination and we should have respect for each others' beliefs. Is this a Baptist only board? If you do not want me to post on this board due to our differences, then so be it. I have no problem with that. That is fine. I do not put you down for that. Had God brought me to a Baptist Church when I was saved, I would be believing much the same as you, but he did not. He brought me to the Assembly of God Church, where the gifts of the spirit are alive and thriving, and people worship God in a different manner than what you are used to. That is okay. But you should respect my beliefs, also. We will find out who is right when we reach heaven, where there are no denominational differences. In the meantime, we are commanded to love one another--especially the brethren. Love in Christ, Janae. |

Dear BradK: With all due respect, I have not stated that God wants to heal us all the time--you put those words into my mouth. I stated that God's healing is AVAILABLE through his atoning death on the cross. Just because a certain belief is recent, does that make it wrong? The fall of Adam into sin led the human race into the universal experience of sin, sickness, and death. In Psalm 103:3, the psalmist lists God's blessings for His people: forgiveness of our sins, healing for our diseases, and the gifts of redemption and eternal life. Forgiveness is the first and most important gift we can receive from God. Through it we are restored to God and redeemed from destruction (verse 4). Healing of diseases that come to us because of sin and Satan is likewise part of the salvation that God makes available to his people (James 5:15-16). In James 5:15-16, James is speaking of physical sickness. We may deal with illness by sending for the elders or leaders of the church. (1) It is the duty of pastors and elders to pray for the sick and to anoint them with oil. The responsibility to pray the prayer of faith is on them, not on the sick person. The New Testament places the major burden for healing on the church and its leaders. (2) The oil probably represents the healing power of the Holy Spirit and was used as an aid to faith. (Mark 6:13) (3) It is prayer that James emphasizes as most important. Effective prayer must be offered in faith if the sick are to be healed. The Lord will give faith according to His will. (4) People may or may not always be healed; nevertheless. God promises to be with all those who cry unto Him in fervent prayer. In James 5:16, is an important reason why healing is often lacking in the Christian community. Sin must be confessed to others, and fervent prayer for one another be made unto God. Sin in the church hinders the prayers of believers and blocks the healing power of God from being manifested in the congregation. I know for a fact that the above is true, because I have been prayed for by the elders of the church, and miraculously healed by God. I am speaking not only from the reading of God's Word, but also from a personal experience with the Lord. God's Word is true, and everything else is subject to change by that Word. Are you saying that divine healing is not a part of Christ's atoning death? If so, what is your reason for this belief? Janae |

Hank, My view is that Jesus' atoning death was complete and adequate for redeeming the whole person--spirit, soul, and body. As sin and sickness have become the twin giants designed by Satan to destroy us, so forgiveness and healing are joined as twin blessings designed by God to redeem us and make us whole (Ps. 103:3; Jas. 5:14-16). The believer should press on in humility and faith to possess the full provision of Christ's atonement, including the healing of the body. I would be grateful to know which statements you feel are incongruous and conflicting statements that I have posted regarding the relationship between spiritual healing and physical healing. Thank you. Janae. |

Wouldn't know; haven't read it. But, you should mind your manners. I don't put down your beliefs, and you shouldn't put down mine. I thought we were to exchange ideas, not be dogmatic on this board. Some people take all the fun out of discussing the Word of God. I hope you are not one of them. Janae. |

The problem of sickness and disease is intertwined with the problem of sin and death--i.e., the consequences of the fall. Whereas medical science views the causes of sickness and disease in physiological or psychosomatic terms, the Bible presents spiritual causes as the underlying or basic problem. These are twofold (a) sin, which has affected our spiritual and physical makeup (John 5:5, 14), and (b) Satan (Acts 10:38; cf. Mark 9:17, 20, 25; Luke 13-11; Acts 9:11-12). |

Dear Kalos, I am not a KJV radical, but I do prefer that version. Here's an exercise for you. Look up Matthew 18:11 in the NIV and tell me what it says. Blessings, Janae |

Dear Hank, First of all, let me say how sorry I am that you and your wife lost your precious son. I know that must be the most painful experience anyone can have. But, your beloved son is with Jesus now, waiting for his parents and loved ones to be with him. That is the glorious blessed hope we have in Christ Jesus. ALL PRAISE AND GLORY BE UNTO GOD!!! I pray you will see that I am coming to you in love. When I said you were not giving God credit for divine healing, I was referring to the Scripture of Isaiah 53:5, about which you said it was only talking about spiritual healing there. That is where I disagree, for I believe Isaiah 53:5 is also talking about physical healing. This healing refers to salvation with all its benefits, spiritual and physical. Sickness and disease are the result of the fall and Satan's activity in the world. "For this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil" (I John 3:8). Christ gave gifts of healing to His church (I Cor. 12:9) and commanded His followers to heal the sick as part of their proclamation of the kingdom of God (Luke 9:1-2, 6; 10:1, 8-9, 19). Well, I am going to end now. I pray you have a blessed day. Love in Christ Jesus, Janae |

Greetings, Kalos! I don't understand why you have brought this into the discussion. Everyone knows, or should realize, that whether a healing occurs or not is entirely up to God. Blessings, Janae |

Dear CDBJ: Your note made me chuckle. No, I do not think that I am special because God chose to heal me. I am very humbled by my healing and grateful to God that he looked down upon this poor miserable wretch and took mercy upon me and healed me of a debilitating disease. ALL PRAISE AND GLORY BE UNTO GOD!!! GOD IS GRACIOUS AND FULL OF MERCY, PRAISE HIS GLORIOUS, MIGHTY NAME!!! I did not say I was special. God is no respecter of persons. I merely related my healing to illustrate that I was claiming my healing and not letting Satan take it away from me, since the original question was regarding "claiming things in your life." All blessings be unto you, my friend, Love in Christ Jesus, Janae |

Dear Doc, Take a look at Matthew 9:1-8, please: 1 And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city. 2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee. 3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth. 4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts? 5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk? 6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house. 7 And he arose, and departed to his house. 8 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men. I did not take Isaiah 53:5 out of context. This healing refers to salvation with all its benefits, spiritual and physical. Sickness and disease are the result of the fall and Satan's activity in the world. "For this purpose the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil." (I John 3:8) Christ gave gifts of healing to His church (I Cor. 12:9) and commanded His followers to heal the sick as part of their proclamation of the kingdom of God (Luke 9:1-2,6; 10:1, 8-9,19). "Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases." Signs following those who believe: "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 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." (Mark 16:17-18). The Scriptures clearly teach that it is the desire of Christ for His followers to perform miraculous deeds as they announce the gospel of the kingdom of God. These signs, performed by true disciples, confirm that the gospel message is genuine, that the kingdom of God has come to earth in power, and that the living and risen Jesus is present with His people and working through them. BUT IT IS THROUGH THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT THESE MIRACLES ARE PERFORMED. Love in Christ Jesus, Janae |

Whew! For a minute there, I thought you thought I was one of those who subscribe to "name it and claim it". As I said, I have heard of that false theology, but never really knew exactly what it was before, except for what the name brings to mind. That's bizarre. That is denying the One True God and making yourself into a god. Janae |

We pray and ask God to bring them back, and if it is His will, he brings them back. I don't know why you are attacking me. I don't do the work--God does it, if it is His will. Seems to me we are saying the same thing in a different way. | ||||||
