NASB | 1 Corinthians 12:9 to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 12:9 to another [wonder-working] faith [is given] by the same [Holy] Spirit, and to another the [extraordinary] gifts of healings by the one Spirit; |
Subject: gift of healing same as prayer of faith |
Bible Note: Greetings Tim, The very fact that Paul does not mention the gift of healings in 1 Cor. 13:8 suggests to me that he did not anticipate that gift to be a 'sticking point' for the church, or else, I believe that he would have mentioned it. Also, if the gift of healings were given today by the Holy Spirit, then would that not be just as highly and hotly sought after as the gift of speaking in tongues or prophecy? If it were true that the gift of healings was distributed by the Holy Spirit today, then would not there be evidence to the fact that the church has this gift presently and it has been carried down throughout the centuries? Blessings to you, Makarios |
