Bill meditating on the Word while Kristine sleeps!
Hello,
We've been talking for the last couple of days about how it is God's will for everyone to be healed. Since Jesus, in the Gospels, never commissioned anyone to preach the Gospel without commanding them to heal the sick, how can we obey this command if there is no Gospel (Good News) of healing to proclaim to the sick, as a basis for their faith? Or, since faith is expecting God to keep His promise, how can there be faith for healing if God has not promised it? And since the Bible is full of promises for healing, are they not all Gospel (Good News) to the sick? Since "faith comes by hearing...the Word", how can the sick have faith for healing if there is nothing for them to hear?
Have a great week,
Bill
