Why do advocate that SIN & curses are more powerful than the finished work of Jesus Christ?
I don't. You just think that, because you fail to perceive and understand what I have been saying.
Rom 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But
where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
However, we are not immune to the consequences of sin.
Rom 6:16 Know ye not, that
to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey;
whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Rom 6:22
But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Rom 6:23
For the wages of sin is death;
but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
To whom is Paul speaking to?
So if it is to the child of God, why would he be telling them that if they yield themselves to sin that they are the servants of sin, and that the fruit of that sin will lead to death,
IF they have been made free form sin?
Has the Christian been made free from sin?
If it is written, then it must be, right?
Yes and no.
Yes, they have been made free, as it is written, but not everyone can walk in that freedom. The victory we have over the world in Christ Jesus, is still through faith. So we must have faith to walk in the freedom that Christ provided for us.
The word of God says you have been healed by the stripes of Jesus, but how many actually get healed when they pray for relief of whatever afflicts them?
God promises to give good things to
EVERYONE that asks Him, and healing is a good thing. So if they ask for healing, then they are healed, if they ask in faith.
The reason why most healings don't manifest in the natural, is because
the child of God doesn't know it has been granted and done, nor do they believe they have been, or that they are, healed. And this is because they are waiting to FEEL better FIRST. Therefore it will not manifest in the natural, nor can they receive it.
2Pe 2:19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption:
for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
2Pe 2:20 For
if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
2Pe 2:21 For it had been better for them not to
have known the way of righteousness, than,
after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
2Pe 1:2
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
2Pe 1:3 According as his divine power
hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
2Pe 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises:
that by [knowledge] these [exceeding great and precious promises] ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
Without the knowledge of what God has already done for and given to you, as a child of God, you will walk in the same sins, as the world does. It might bother some to do so, because of the Spirit of God in them, but without the knowledge of what Christ has done for them, they will not know HOW to walk in the Spirit, nor be able to, though they try to fight against it, but like the world, they too will succumb to some sins.
The word of God says that God has given us all things pertaining to life and godliness THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF JESUS. Therefore, without that knowledge, which equates to having faith in God through those exceeding great and precious promises, you would not be able to
escaped the pollutions of the world.
If faith comes by hearing the word of God, and hearing is necessary to have faith, through the knowledge of Christ's work on the cross, for salvation, then we must have this same said faith, through the knowledge of Christ's work, for healing or to walk in the freedom from sin or to escape the pollution of this world, ...etc.
We have to have knowledge of what God has done for us first, followed by faith in that knowledge.
