81 | Kindly explain? | 1 Pet 2:24 | mitchm0521 | 166157 | ||
I noticed the date on the post. I was still hoping the person would get the response. As for edification, I can't help what parts of the Word don't edify a man. I just speak it how its written. God Bless, Mitch |

82 | 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! |

83 | Kindly explain? | 1 Pet 2:24 | mitchm0521 | 166090 | ||
Brother, this scripture means That Jesus bore our sins in his own body. Meaning that he took upon himself our sin, and the punishment for it. And it also means, that by his stripes, by the wounds he was given, we were healed spiritually, as well as we were healed physically. It means we have a right to resist sickness and disease in this world, because we are seated at the right hand of God in Christ Jesus , and the enemy and the curse, has no hold over us any longer. God Bless! Mitch |

84 | Should we pray outside of God's will? | 1 Pet 2:24 | mitchm0521 | 166089 | ||
Should we pray for anything that isn't God's will? If its not God's will for everyone to be healed, why on earth would we ever want to ask him for healing? Why would the Word tell us to call for the elders and anoint the sick and the prayer of faith would raise up the sick? Why would we be instructed to pray and ask God for something he wants to say no to? Paul said that we should not be ignornant but knowing what the will of the Lrod is. So we best know his will, before we pray shoudln't we? Hope this helps you Brother Rhodes. Mitch |

85 | did Jesus die for our sins or sickness | 1 Pet 2:24 | mitchm0521 | 166088 | ||
In 1 Peter 2:24 the Word is talking about being healed physically. So yes, Just as Isaiah prophesied when he said Isa 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. Isa 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. Thats a pretty sure statement that Jesus died for our healing as well as for sin. Lets look at : Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. In the Greek the word saved is sozo which can be translated delivered, healed (physical healing) , save from disease, preserve So yes, Jesus died and took our sin, which sin, is what brought the curse upon the whole Earth. And the curse, contains sickness. Let no one tell you that God sends sickness upon his children. I wouldn't let anyone say that about my natural father, neither would you I'm sure. So don't allow others to tell you that about your heavenly father either. Hope this has helped you! Mitch |

86 | Is speaking in tongues a necessity ? | Acts 2:4 | mitchm0521 | 166087 | ||
I notice the date on this Question is not recent, however I can answer the question, so I will in hopes it can help the one who asked. Your Question on whether speaking in tongues is a necessity. Lets look at scripture for a moment. Luke 24:45 says Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, At this point, since the Word is saying Jesus opened their understanding, they were born again, and able to understand the mystery of God. This would have to be the point in their life where they were born again, just as you and I were the moment we confessed the Lordship of Jesus Christ. So with that said, lets see the next few verses. And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: Luk 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. Luk 24:48 And ye are witnesses of these things. Luk 24:49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. So Jesus told them that they could not go out and be a witness for him, untill they were endued with power from on high. Now lets go to the book of Acts. It starts off in Chapter 1 by saying that Jesus was with them, and taught them for fourty days and taught them of things pertaining to the kingdom of God. Luke goes on to write what those things are that Jesus was teaching. He tells them in verse 4 of chapter 1 that they are not to leave Jerusalem untill they had recieved the promise of the Father, which is the Holy Ghost. So this shows us, that these born again men, are still to wait for something else, before they go out and become a witness for Jesus. Jesus goes on to tell them of the power they will recieve when this happens. And remmber, he said in the Gospels that people who believe on him would speak with new tongues. So what I'm getting at, is that since speaking in tongues is the evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, (Acts 2:4 ) then you need to be filled with the Holy Ghost, which will lead to speaking in other tongues, in order to be a witness for Jesus. If a person doesn't want to be a witness for the Lord, and lead others to the saving grace of God, then I suppose, you don't need to recieve the Baptism in the Holy Ghost and speak in other tongues. God Bless! Mitch |
