Are you still sick, and you believe in Jesus?
Are you wondering if God has lied or failed you?
Are you wondering if you're that way because you just don't have the right level of faith?
Many Christians believe in a teaching that is built on a faulty foundation.
It is nothing more than a religious teaching and doctrine of man.
It leads many to think that God has lied or failed them.
Many think they lack faith because of this teaching.
In a nutshell, this teaching says ALL will be healed if they have enough faith and believe enough. It also teaches that ALL will be financially rich if they have enough faith and sow enough seed.
Many sincere Christians follow this teaching, yet remain sick and poor. They then wonder if God is lying. They wonder if they lack faith. Sometimes they abandon the faith or beat themselves up over it.
They quote and believe "By His stripes I am healed.": Until they are blue in the face, yet they remain sick.
I have good news for people.
*God hasn't lied.
*God hasn't failed.
*If you're saved and remain sick, it's not because your faith isn't strong enough.
The problem is that you have believed in a teaching that is in error.
The problem isn't with God or your faith.
The problem is with the teaching.
Here's a very easy thing to remember.
If we could have the fullness of heaven now, we'd be in heaven now!
Yes, by His stripes we are healed.
But when is that going to be FULLY realized for ALL believers?
Again, if we could have the fullness of heaven NOW, we'd be in heaven NOW!
We remain in this fallen world. Yes we're the people of God. Yes we're his children. Yet, due to being on this side of heaven, we're not going to have the full realities of heaven.
Here is what the Bible says.
Romans 8
22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together with labor pains until now. 23 And not only that, but we ourselves who have the Spirit as the firstfruits—we also groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for adoption, the redemption of our bodies. 24 Now in this hope we were saved, yet hope that is seen is not hope, because who hopes for what he sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with patience.
See, we're still in a state of hope and expectation for what happens when Jesus comes back to restore everything to perfection.
Don't hear me wrong. God does indeed still heal today. But to expect the FULLNESS of heaven NOW for ALL, is very unbiblical. Sometimes the fullness of heaven spills over in to our present fallen world, and we get a taste.
For now though, we wait, in expectation for the FULL manifestation of restoration of all of creation.
So if you've shouted "BY HIS STRIPES I AM HEALED" until you're blue in the face, and your "believer" is broken, take heart! God hasn't failed or lied. You're faith isn't broken.
The only thing that has failed is the faulty doctrine of man this false teaching was built upon. Only the light of the Holy Spirit can set people free of this tradition of man.
