81 | 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! |

82 | 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 |

83 | What can a wife do to help her husband | 1 Pet 3:1 | mitchm0521 | 166175 | ||
I would have to say that the best thing do is read through 1 Peter Chapter 3. The first few verses talk about the impact a woman of faith can have on an unbelieving husband. Remember, when you are subject to him though, God comes first for you. YOu don't have to submit to the point to where you give up your walk with God. People tend to think submit is such a bad word, its not. A good dictionary, such as Vine's will expose that word for you better. God Bless! Mitch |

84 | verses that help me deal with rejection | 1 John | mitchm0521 | 166164 | ||
As a good start for helping with the fear of rejection, or any fear for that matter, I'd suggest reading the entire book of 1 John in the New Testament. John writes in this book on the Love of God, and in Chapter 4 verse 18 he goes as far as to say that Perfect Love (the God love ) casts out fear. These scriptures should be very helpful for you. But don't just read them, take time to think about them, take some time to try to remember some of them. And speak them over yourself. You have what the Word says you have. For instance read through the 4th Chapter, and begin to say "God is Love, and I'm his child, I live in him, therefore his perfect Love casts out all fear from me. I have no fear. I have no hurts, because his perfected love has cast out fear" HOpe this helps you Mitch |

85 | homeless children and battered childrens | 1 John | mitchm0521 | 166173 | ||
Its always hard dealing with these issues with nonbelievers. As you and I know, God is full of love and compassion. However there are things that happen to good innocent people in this world, take for instance abortion. Around 5000 children are slaughtered each day by Abortion. The best thing I could think of for you to tell him, is that God did not create us to be puppets. He has given us the power of life and death ( Proverbs 18:21 ) Also remember that Paul said that if our gospel is hidden, its hidden to them whom the god of this world has blinded their eyes. ( 2 Cor 4:3,4 ) The best thing you can do is allow the Love of God to display through you, in the way you treat this man, and the way you treat everyone else. He will see the Love. Jesus said so himself. ( John 17:23 ) The bad things that happen in this life we can never blame on God. We know that the Bible says God is Love (1 John 4:8) God doesn't send any sickness or disease, or poverty upon anyone. The devil is the one who does all that. ( John 10:10 ) I guess what I'm saying, is that if this person is hard of hearing, and wont let you tell him that God is full of love, and its not his will for these things to happen, but these things do happen, because God's laws have been violated, then your best bet is just to pray for this person, and walk in Love with them. God Bless, Mitch |

86 | Can a christian be under a curse? | 1 John 4:4 | mitchm0521 | 167397 | ||
A Christian can still be affected by the curse, but they do not have to be. Even in the Old Testament when the blessing and the curse was laid out to Israel, we read the condition was If you hearken to the voice of the Lord and do those things that he commands, then these blessing will come upon you and overtake you. (Deu 28:2) However, if they did not listen and do as God commanded, then the curse would come upon them. (Deu 28:15 ) Now, Jesus has redemmed us from the curse part of that old law. We are to live soley in the blessings, however, if we disobey what God's Word says, then yes, the curse can still come upon us. Jesus just made it easy to fulfill the law by saying Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul mind and strength, and your neighbor as yourself. Upon these two hang ALL the law and prophets. ( Matt 22:37 - 40 ) So if we don't fullfill this most important commandments, then we are not doing the will of God, and thus we are not under the protection of the Father. Meaning the curse will overtake you, in some or even all of its forms which include as Deu 28 points out, poverty and every form of sickness. So in short, yes, we can fall under a curse if we do not keep the Word of the Lord, but if we walk by Faith, and live the Word of God in our lives, then we walk free of all curses, we walk in a place of prosperity and divine health, and that Wicked one touches us not! ( 1 John 5:18 ) So as I said, jesus redemed us from the curse, we do not have to put up with anything that the curse involves, just like he has redeemed us of our sins, and we don't have to live a sinful life, however, if we don't obey his word, then we are in sin, and sin is the cause of the curse. HOpe this helped! Mitch |
