Hank, I am sorry to hear about your son it sounds like you are a little bitter. It is still God's will to heal regardless. You should hear Thurman Shrivner's testamony. His grandaughter was in a car accident. Her brain was disconnect from her eyes and brainstem and her skull was crushed. you can see the full testamony at http://www.sidroth.org/radio.htm then click on 2003 Archives scroll down and the 5th story down is Thurman Schrivner's story. He could have accepted that she was sick and would not make it or he could have prayed the word and Commanded her body to be healed. And that is what he did. It is an awesome story, in fact most of the stories on this website are awesome. God's will is to heal, I'm sorry you don't believe. |

No there is an alotted time man is given. There is a certain number of years that is promised to man. And you are wrong. Natural causes. Sis. Grace a lady in my church died at 98 years of age. And she didn't die from a disease. She just went to sleep. And you could feel the peace of God so strong in her room. When we went to pray for her as we knew the time was getting close she wasn't sick or anything she said "Don't pray that God keeps me here. Pray that He takes me because I am ready to go home." And the light in her face and the light in her eyes was amazing. We don't have to die of a disease. That is a lie from the pit of hell. And your imaginary world that the devil has you trapped in needs shaken. Where does it ever say in the bible that someone they prayed for was not healed? This is a valid question I want scripture. And it is a lack of faith. I hate to be the one to tell you but we here in America don't have a need for faith. We have even lost the concept of the word. We dont have to have faith to put gas in the car cause we have jobs, we don't have to have faith to put food on the table, because there is food stamps. We don't have to worry about the close on our back because if all else fails there are hand- me- downs. AMERICA HAS NO REASON TO HAVE FAITH. I once heard a man that lives in Etheopia say "My cross to carry was persecution your cross in America is Prosperity, I can carry my cross can you carry yours?" And he is so right. We have no reason to have faith. Well the buck stops here. I believe EVERY WORD of the bible and JESUS said these signs will follow them that believe they will lay hands on THE SICK and THEY SHALL RECOVER. Not they will lay hands on some people and they might recover. NO!!! My JESUS HEALS..... I don't know who you are serving. |

Eldership has nothing to do with age. It has to do with relationship. Timothy was considered an elder of the church and theologins speculate he was in his 20's. I dont talk back. I have concerns about the Lack of faith God is coming back for a church that is just as powerful as when he left. And right now most churches aren't. Where is the power? | ||||||

You guys say God heals if it is his will, but he doesn't promise to heal? Tell that to a beaten bloody Jesus. His stripes were for my healing. Whether I accept that it is up to me. | ||||||

Jesus said these signs shall follow them that believe..and followed it up by saying they will lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. I am not saying that God promised we would never physically die. But, God did promise that we lay hands on the sick and they recover. I have yet to see God go back on his word When I pray for people I pray with faith knowing that God is going to heal them PHYSICALLY NOW. And he Does. I am just flabberghasted at the faith or lack thereof with this conversation. You guys sound real intellegent and amaze me sometimes, but WOW! saying God doesn't heal All of your diseases makes this whole book non-sense. If he didn't mean one thing he didn't mean any of it. | ||||||
26 | connection: baptism and holy spirit | Acts | punkiedo | 113517 | ||
Where does it saved before they got the Holy Ghost? It doesn't. There is a gift of tongues and there is the Holy Ghost speaking in tongues a lot of people get the 2 confused. Speaking in tongues is for everybody. But there is a gift of tongues. WHICH IS DIFFERENT. All the people who got the Holy Ghost spoke in tongues and were baptized (baptizo meaning to imerse or submerge or clean with water). It does not say they were saved before they spoke in tongues. Everytime the Holy Ghost was poured out they spoke with other tongues. In one translation it says spoke in an unknown tongue. | ||||||

it is not Always the person who is sick's lack of faith, the bible says if there is any sick among you let them call for the elders of the church...the prayer of FAITH shall save them.. SO the majority of the time it is a lack of faith on the person doing the praying. however I have met some people that are happy being sick. |

Ok so explain Psalm 103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Do you know that Salvation in the old testament Almost always means SAVING HEALTH. Jeremiah 30:17 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after. Deuteronomy 11:19-21 God tells the children of israel that if they teach his commandments and statutes their days would be prolonged. all of Ps 103 is a promise to life Ps 36:9 God is the fountain of life. Ps 30:1-3 Ps 27:1 Ps21:1-4 Length of days again Pr 22:4 Pr 19:23 PR 10:27 Pr9:10-11 Pr 8:12 THat is just some of them EdB. My God heals me Everytime just like he promised. God doesn't want anyone to suffer that is why he made a provision. Do you realize that every disease in the world can be traced back to 39 root disease. Everything from the common cold to AIDS. Interestingly Jesus took 39 stripes. |

29 | Saved by faith? | John 3:5 | punkiedo | 113505 | ||
Faith is seeing through the circumstance. Faith is blind trust. Hebrews 11:1 Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen. CEV says 1Faith makes us sure of what we hope for and gives us proof of what we cannot see. My mother can believe that I have potential. And she can tell me I have potential. But she doesnt have faith in me until she steps out in faith and says I have complete faith in you that you are becomming the best person you can be for God. It is a blind un altered trust. Belief can be swayed. Moses believed God would deliver them from the sea and pharoh, but it was his faith that made him stand up and stretch his rod over the water. To be honest with you IT DOESN'T matter, The only thing that matters is that you provided no scripture that says we are saved by fait ALONE. It is just not there. Even though it is in alot of Christian songs, we are not saved by faith alone. |

I didn't say that you are saved because you endure, boy, you REALLY got that one messed up. I was merely stating that no one is saved till God comes back. You have to endure to the end. You have to Press toward the mark sort of speak. | ||||||

You would expect someone "full of pride" to know better? I asked a simple question. I know God says no sometimes Brad. He wouldn't be a good God if he gave us EVERYTHING that we wanted. We would be spoiled brats. (I am not saying that anyone is, however I grew up around a lot of spoiled brats not spiritually physically but that is a nother story ENTIRELY hehe) You guys really tickle me cause sometimes I agree with you in a way, but just want to see if you can provide sufficient scripture to back up your statements. I know I love to read the word, but if it is not in the word I can't believe it. Forgive me for offending you Brad. I just think that if you are in the church and you are living right talking right and acting right then whatever you ask God for will be to further his kingdom, and he will give it. Now not saying oh God give me a million bucks to further your kingdom because we all know the intentions behind that. But to say God heal me like you said in your word you would. God has to answer. I do not agree that healing is NOT guarenteed, because it is. He took the beating for my healing. | ||||||
34 | Is healing a guarantee?? | Is 53:5 | punkiedo | 113492 | ||
My question my dear Brother, is Why pray if God is not going to answer. You are telling me that healing is not guarenteed, where does it say that in the bible? I want scripture. I am not being flippant, I just serve a God that FORGIVES ALL MY INIQUITIES AND HEALS ALL OF MY DISEASES. Why would God lie? Romans 4:21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. The Love of my life said that he would heal me of ALL my diseases not some. The Love of my life said that if I am sick to call the elders of the church and when they pray over me the prayer of faith will save me and the LORD will raise me up. My Love said I am the Lord that HEALETH THEE! My Love said I will restore health unto thee and heal thee of thy wounds. My Loving savior is awesome, I am so sorry for you that you don't realize the power that you have in his name. If the church ever woke up and realized who they are.....I feel like screaming this from the mountains. The devil has had us blinded for so long with the lies that God doesn't Have to heal, but HE DOES. And I remind God what he said in his word. KJV says this Isaiah 43:26 Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified. Isaiah 43 (AMP version) 26Put Me in remembrance [remind Me of your merits]; let us plead and argue together. Set forth your case, that you may be justified (proved right). I was told to remind him. I remind him of what he said. I say "Lord you said right here in your word that you heal me" |

35 | Saved by faith? | John 3:5 | punkiedo | 113488 | ||
Thanks for the scripture Hank, but it doesn't say we are saved by faith. We are in Romans 5:1,2 JUSTIFIED by faith and have access to God because we believe, but it doesn't say we are saved Justified is from the greek word dikaioo which means 1) to render righteous or such he ought to be 2) to show, exhibit, evince, one to be righteous, such as he is and wishes himself to be considered 3) to declare, pronounce, one to be just, righteous, or such as he ought to be Webster says this Justify-to judge, regard, or treat as righteous and worthy of salvation. So by having faith we are in essence WORTHY of salvation, but not saved. And as far as the other scriptures, that does not prove that you are saved by faith. Because Jesus also said that Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. I believe that you can't be saved by someone you don't believe in, but we are not saved by faith alone...READ James 2:19 The devils believe. Are they saved? Without faith it is impossible to please him Hebrews 11:6, I am asking for scripture backing up the FAITH ALONE statement. There isn't one. While yes you have to have faith to be saved that is not the ONLY thing we are saved by. Furthermore, I haven't completed my study on this, but I believe faith and BELIEF are DIFFERENT. Everyone here BELIEVES God heals, but it seems to me that NO ONE on this forum has FAITH that HEALING IS GUARENTEED. |

It says Brad That these signs SHALL FOLLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE. That means the signs will be evident. When we pray for people we shut our eyes because we think "What if God doesn't heal them" I claim my power in JESUS. You might be powerless but I refuse to be. I want to be one of the ones Jesus finds faith in when he returns. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF PRAYING IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE GOD IS GOING TO MOVE? To me if God is not guarenteed to heal EVERYONE I pray for, then I am waisting good oxygen and time praying for them. SO WHY PRAY????? | ||||||
37 | Is healing a guarantee?? | Is 53:5 | punkiedo | 113485 | ||
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! | ||||||

If God doesn't grant what we want Bradk then why did Jesus say Matthew 6:8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. John 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. John 14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. John 15:7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. John 15:16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. John 16:23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Mark 16:18 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. Psalm 67:2 That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations. Proverbs 3:8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. Isaiah 58:8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward. Matthew 10 7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Luke 9:2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. James 5:15 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. Are you saying that the bible was false when these were stated? Jesus guarenteed healing in the old testament with Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. And in the new testament it is PAST TENSE and it STILL guarentees our healing 1 Peter 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. I think this just proves the fact that there is a horrible lack of faith in our churches. It is sad to think that people do not have the faith to see healing and miracles. It says THESE SIGNS SHALL FOLLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE. WHERE ARE THE SIGNS??????????????????????????? |

39 | Was cornelius saved by spirit | Acts 11:15 | punkiedo | 113481 | ||
I don't really understand why you say he wasn't talking about the pentecost experience when he said like it fell on us in the beginning. Because when Cornelius got the Holy Ghost it says they knew because THEY HEARD HIM SPEAK WITH TONGUES what happened in Acts 2? They were filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak in tongues as the spirit gave them utterance. In other words my answer is this. No one is saved until God comes back. Sorry, no matter what you believe the bible says Matthew 10:22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. So the Holy Ghost wasn't a "free ticket to heaven" but each time the gospel was preached during the birth of the church in Acts they recieved the Holy Ghost. So YES it is a factor in salvation. It is not THE ONLY thing that saves us. You have to repent and be baptized too each account they were baptized also. The reason I have such a problem believing that the Holy Ghost is not essential to salvation is because of the encounter with Simon the Sorceror. In Acts 8:12 it says but when they believed Phillip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. And in the next verse it says "Simon believed also." But it does not say that Simon got the Holy Ghost. It does say that he believed, but notice he still wasn't saved even though he believed. And it goes down and Phillip sent for Peter and John. Peter was given the keys to the kingdom in Matthew 16 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. And it specifically says they sent for him so they would reveive the Holy Ghost and in verse 16 it says "For as yet he was fallen upon none of them only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus" So even though they believed. THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE HOLY GHOST. Hope this helps all the references are Acts 2, 8, 10, 19 Those are the recordings of the Holy Ghost falling. Which by the way it does not record that the Etheopian Eunich got the Holy Ghost Phillip didn't have the keys. Peter was the one who opened the door. That's why they sent for Peter. But once the doors were open they all had the power to pray over people and they receive the Holy Ghost. (Just a Thought) Punkiedo |
