Healings And The Gift Of Healing In The Church by christemmbassey(m): 11:21am On May 23, 2013 |
Some people are saying that there is nothing like healing and the gift of healing in the church today. But the bible says- "and these rigns shall follow them that believe......18......., they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover" (Mark 16:17-18. Please no abuse or name calling, lets listen to Paul in 2tim2:24-26 and Titus 3:2-6. Lets set the ball rolling- and God bless. |

I believe there is healing but only through God. No believer in this present dispensation has the power to call God to heal any man. All we can do is pray(communicate)to(with) God. If it is part of his will, healing will come at God's time if it is not His will,then that prayer is a futile exercise. 2 Likes |

^^^^^^^^ And the thread comes to an abrupt end. Knowing that you, bassey, opened the thread to know demi's position on healing, abi? I think the fear is that there is so much abuse and Satan revels in deceiving people with these signs and wonders show biz. Nonetheless, biblical doctrine shows that healing do occur and we can all trust God for some of these interventions in our walk through life and even to help us in ministry to the world. Peace. 1 Like |

christemmbassey: pls can we know the dispensation and when it began? From what I know their some bible teachers, grace teachers, that believe the world can be classified into dispensation. I came across dispensational teachings via the teachings of R B Thieme Jr. And I think it best explains why Paul teaches that the Law is abolished in Jesus Cross. Below is a commentary on dispensationalism. I agree with most of what they teach but only depart from them when they insist that 1Corinth 13 shows that the gifts of the Spirit have ceased in our dispensation. Read: What is dispensationalism? |

My brother, Jesus said, "all things are posible to them that believe", healing realy depend on us, like any other thing, if u think u can, u can, if u think u can not, no one can help u. And i want to say also, the fact that i dont have the gift of healing doesnt mean others dont have, we can not use our experiences or the abuses of the grace of God by some ppl to define christianity, the fact that i dont have a particular gift will not stop others from using their gifts. 5 Likes |

Like you said, we must trust God for any miracle or healing or whatsoever. He said his thoughts about you are of good and not of evil, why can't Christians trust him instead of looking for that man that has been gifted with the power of miracle. |

shdemidemi:my bros, the bible in Philemon taiks about the things we have in Christ Jesus, we've got so much in Jesus, especialy the gift of healing, and am not just taiking about God healing, i mean, 'we' christian having the ability to heal, we've got so much, look at rm5: says, "they that recieve the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness, shall REIGN in life" we reign over sickness bro by actually NOT praying for but command healing, the God who respected John and Peter in their healing of the criple at the beautiful gate, was the same God who worked for Paul at Lystra and when mere aprons and hankerchief from his body heald many is still working in us today. The gospel of grace which u are debating with nobi is biger than what u think and know. OMG, u think Christ MERELY came to save, no its BIGGER than that, he came to RESTORE beyond Adam, Peter says, God tro his divine power has given to us all things....., including the power to heal and even remit sin. That 1cor13 u quoted never said 'has ended' or 'has ceased' but, will end or shall ceased. What do u think the holy spirit was given to us ? For plenty plenty things my bro including the power to heal. The fact that many ppl are not or could not be healed doesnt mean the power to heal is no longer available but it depend on the sick person in some cases and in some the healer, my friend at a point even Jesus COULD NOT HEAL and the bible says "he marvelled at their unbelieve" so if u have never seen, experienced or never healed some one, it is clearly due to the fact that YOU DONT BELIEVE.

God bless. bro, why are you relating spiritual things to earthly ones 'look at rm5: says, "they that recieve the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness, shall REIGN in life" we reign over sickness bro by actually NOT praying for but command healing' How could you say this, how does gift of grace and righteousness give yo reign over sickness. Help me with where Christ could not heal because of unbelief. You adding to the word of god, its not nice to do that. If Peter had that same power, you would wonder why he didn't ask God to do something when he was about to die. You would wonder why Paul said this if he still had all the power you are talking about. 17 Yes, and if I am being poured out as a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all. |

Healing is very much in place. God still heals. The bible says that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. So if he healed 2000yrs ago, then he can heal again today. In as much as there is FAITH IN THE WORD OF GOD. Any body that needs enlightenment should pm me. All i can say is healings are real. I have seen many and God through me, the least of saint has healed people. Healing is real. Jesus gave us the power to heal. We dont hope for healing, we believe for healing. We dont wait for healing, we recieve our healing. This would be too big for some folks to accept. |

I like this thread. I will like to read more responses.. I am trying to reconcile my mind on this, and the topic couldn't have come any time better. But I do know that Modern day speaking in tongues is a mere manifestation of the carnal flesh. One thing with people is that they do not know how to confront God, most of our needs, requests go unanswered because we simply are not prepared. Some people would rather give fortunes to their Pastors who already fly in Private jet(s) than give the orphans. Do you know what it means for an innocent child to ask God for your continual blessing and protection? No! you don't. You rather want your Pastor to scream your name as the biggest giver for the month of June. Brb 4 Likes |

The issue of laying of hands performing miracles and speaking in tongues has been an issue people need to check d bible for explanation. It ceased with the death of the last Apostle and there was a prophecy that they will end 1 cor 13:8-13;Acts 8:15-20. Speaking in tongues is speaking another person dialect without having prior knowledge of the language not the ba ba ba we hear nowadays. Search d bible pls 3 Likes |

Well, i dont have much to say on this matter but know this "Every single human on the face of the earth has the ability to heal".. It just has to do with this powerful word called "FAITH".. Take a look at t.b joshua,i dont get too surprised when he heals cos i know that what is in action there is "FAITH",but what surprises me is why dont we all have that faith without any iota of doubt.. The person who's about to get healed has seen many people get healed on tv or people they know personally,hence automatically "believes" without any iota of doubt that they would be healed and viola healing works.. Healing can never work without faith,they both go hand in hand... Healing is not only a xtian thing,its a human thing.. Its accessible to every human but the question is "how do you access it"? The answer is "FAITH".. This is how i believe healing works. Someone may have another view on healing though,but this is mine.. Annointing water doesn't heal you,rather your "faith" heals you cos many after seeing many people get delivered via annointing water develope strong faith in the water and viola healing takes place.. If you feel your doctor can heal you via drugs,then fine go see your doctor.. You just have to have to look for something you strongly believe your healing is coming through via. It doesnt matter what that is.. Many people believe faith only exists in the bible and within xtians thats why the concept of healing will not be fully understood by this bunch... Bible this,bible that.. People have been healing themselves before xtianity came into existence,faith has always been there before jesus christ was born.. Stop looking at faith from that angle and start looking at it from a complex perspective that incorporates itself in every aspect of the universe.. Healing comes from the mind.. The mind is a very powerful force in the universe many people neglect.. Faith is aslo a very powerful force in the universe and both work hand in hand.. The two have always existed and they will continue to exist.. Stop looking at everything from a biblical angle cos it limits you from seeing the bigger picture about how the universe works.. 1 Like |

Being alive is what i consider to be a miracle and being healthy is a way of my life(exercises, healthy food and drinks etc) I will believe your pastors got the power to heal if someone i knew blind or cripple receive such healing but for now you guys are just speculating.
