NASB | 1 Peter 2:24 and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 2:24 He personally carried our sins in His body on the cross [willingly offering Himself on it, as on an altar of sacrifice], so that we might die to sin [becoming immune from the penalty and power of sin] and live for righteousness; for by His wounds you [who believe] have been healed. |
Subject: Should we pray outside of God's will? |
Bible Note: Mark, Just because God causes all things to work out "for the good" of those who are called by his name, does not mean that those things that happened were good. Anything that goes against the nature and character of God is not of his kingdom. The definition of "bad" is defined by which kingdom it comes from or serves. Death and sickness do not come from the Kingdom of God where His perfect will rules all. Certainly God does work out these things for his purposes, but that doesn't make them good. MJH |
