Bible Question: What does God's correction/scourging/punishment on His Children look like? Could it be it sickness, poverty and death |
Bible Answer: No, my friend. Sickness and desease are a result of the curse of sin. God chastens His children by His Word and the conviction of the Holy Spirit. When we disobey the Word of God and the leadership of the Holy Spirit, we 'reap' the harvest of the seed we sow. 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. Jesus provided for us peace with God, and deliverance from the kingdom of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of God. Jesus bore the punishment for our sins on the cross. He HImself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, and REDEEMED us from the curse of the law of sin and death. Sickness and poverty fal under the curse. God bless |
