2 Corinthians 12:7-10
[SUP]7 [/SUP]Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me—to keep me from exalting myself! [SUP]8 [/SUP]Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me. [SUP]9 [/SUP]And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. [SUP]10 [/SUP]Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

Its God who does the healing, not our Faith. Name it claim it is a false Doctrine.

What ever happened to those willing to endure hardness for the Lord? What kind od man puts on the armor of God and cries like a baby if he scratches his finger? Just a bunch milk toast fair weather believers.

What if God should require you to sacrifice your body and good health as a testimony of His love? To show lost souls how to have faith that God will redeem and grant eternal life to those who love Him. Do you love yourself more than you love God? Does health and healing come before the testimony of the Lord?

Too many mommies boys running around trying to sound like men but with the character and stamina of little girls no wait the little girls don't cry as quick as these great men who are hero's.

2Ti 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

A lifetime of suffering here for an eternity of bliss in heaven. Which is the greater?

For the cause of Christ

Well said Roger!

Good grief Polly! This is a scathing post. Mean to the core with words that whip the reader. It was just like reading swear words to my eyes and heart.:eek:
Good grieif!! You judging me??
It may possibly be that you are slightly biased. You do support the likes of JP and JO dont you?
Ive had several seething words slung my way. Should I be gentle with the perverters of the truth? Should I be gentle with the blasphemers of Gods word? I think not. Ty for stopping by. Have a good day:)

As far as I can tell, the unpardonable sin is ascribing to works of Satan to the HS,and visa versa.

The amount of healing verses is massive.

The pro sickness/faith is demonic position has what,2 or three obscure verses?

Jesus said to raise the dead.

Is dead raising another fluke of heaven?
well when I go to Acts 9.36 on there were clearly no Christians who knew your position in Joppa. The church had to send to Peter for healing. The saints who lived at Lydda seemed to share their views. The church in general had no power to heal in those cases.

Am I to assume my brothers and sisters are those who cling to heretics? i thank you for well intended advice but I will adhere to what Christ said: Just righteously and not by appearance.
What a departure from when you posted this:

Luke 13:3 - Unless you repent you will likewise perish.


You have to want to glorify God and die to self more than you want the drink. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. I used to be a pothead like cheech and chong. I used to think I needed zanax to sleep and get me through the day. I was a fornicator too! I was a mess. Im not perfect yet because I am not with the Lord in heaven yet( glorified) but I am a work in progress (santified). I am the clay and God is my potter. God delivered me from it all! God frees us from the bondage of sin. Humble yourself. Seek the Lord. Jesus Christ can set you free!
Proverbs 16:6 - By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD [men] depart from evil.



Ill pray for you. I want you to be free.

Please commit yourself to reading the bible every single day. Seek the Lord in the early morning hours. You will find him. Christ said if you knock I will answer.
Will the real pollyanna please stand up!?!?

Scathing? What about this one?
Matthew 23:13-33 (KJV)
[SUP]13 [/SUP]But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. [SUP]14 [/SUP]Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation. [SUP]15 [/SUP]Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. [SUP]16 [/SUP]Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor! [SUP]17 [/SUP]Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold? [SUP]18 [/SUP]And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty. [SUP]19 [/SUP]Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? [SUP]20 [/SUP]Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. [SUP]21 [/SUP]And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. [SUP]22 [/SUP]And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. [SUP]23 [/SUP]Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. [SUP]24 [/SUP]Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. [SUP]25 [/SUP]Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. [SUP]26 [/SUP]Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. [SUP]27 [/SUP]Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. [SUP]28 [/SUP]Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. [SUP]29 [/SUP]Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, [SUP]30 [/SUP]And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. [SUP]31 [/SUP]Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. [SUP]32 [/SUP]Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. [SUP]33 [/SUP]Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

Now that's scathing, wouldn't you say?
Show me in such vivid detail where Jesus did this with a sinner and not the religious leaders.

We are called to love and be love your words are crude and harsh you reject correction but are more than willing to give it you speak but do not listen. If you are a Christian then you must show it

If the truth is love then why do you show such a lack of it? I see no love in your words and you are to rude to others I don't want you to keep going down this path as it only leads to you getting hurt. and no I am not judging you I cam giving you advice and correction as a brother in Christ should I don't do this to point out all you do wrong I do this so you might see the error of your ways. Always remember there is a vast difference between a Christian by title and a Christian by heart

I left the faith for a couple of years, and identified as an atheist. Returning to faith last year, it healed the broken relationship I had with my dad. Not overnight, but Jesus' love inspired me to love my dad, even if I didn't like him lol And that inspired him to apologize to me, and now we are better than ever before. Jesus' love can heal all things ...all broken hearts if we let Him. :)

You would be one of the scoffers if you were in the presence of one of the minor prophets! You have no idea what you are talking about! Real ministry offends those that are walking in error. I am not here to give you a massage. Grow up!

If you left you were never saved to begin with. Atheist claim there is no God. How can you be saved and claim Christ and then identify as a atheist. It isnt possible. God saves whom he desires and he doesnt let them go!
I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand.
John 10:28

Im glad that you and your dad are walking in accord with each other now. God is in the changing hearts business.We are new creations in Christ! Praise the Lord!

You assume you know my heart but I can assure you that I would not be one of the scoffers, I have met many prophets and have been damaged by several who claimed to be prophets but it was never my place to scoff or judge them mine is only to love be love and show who love truly is. It was never our place to point the finger that is for Jesus to do we can give correction in a loving manner and can show others where they are in the wrong but to do so in a christ like way.
Love does not point a finger or criticize if anything we should point the finger to ourselves far before we point the finger to others

Anna you say you have been saved since 2000 yes? that is sixteen years of experience I have been saved for barely four years, you should be the one teaching me and showing me what it means to be a Christian not the other way around
