Strange enough, you are unwilling to quote the exact verse Gal 3:14 despite repeated prompting. Let me ask you the questions then:
- What is the blessings of Abraham to you?
- When Gentiles are blessed with the blessings of Abraham, do you think it includes health?
- Was Abraham ever recorded to be sick?
- Can you be the "heir of the world" if you are lying sick at your back?
I can hardly believe how you can take a blessing like Genesis 12, and make it all about 21st healings which are not immediately evident. Because they are made up in the minds of those who are caught in the Word Faith cult.
"Now the Lord said to Abram,
“Go out from your country, your relatives, and your father’s household
to the land that I will show you.
2 Then I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you,
and I will make your name great,
so that you will exemplify divine blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you,
but the one who treats you lightly I must curse,
and all the families of the earth will bless one another by your name.” Gen. 12:1-3
So, what exactly does this blessing imply? To make it short, the three cohortatives (vs 2a, 2b, "That I may," "Then I will," and "be a blessing" indicate God's ultimate purpose in calling and blessing Abraham. It would be hard to overestimate the value of this call and this divine plan for the theology of the Bible.
Here begins God's plan to bring redemption to the world. The promises of Abraham will be turned into a covenant in Genesis 15 and 22, (with conditional promises!) and will then lead through the Bible to the work of the Messiah.
Absolutely nothing about healing. The blessing is salvation. That is the work of the atonement, and how Christ redeemed us. There have been many in the Bible who have been sick, including King Uzziah with leprosy, who still inherited the promise of Abraham. Your questions are simply not sustainable from any reading of the Bible! anywhere! In fact, the first "blessing" that comes to Abraham is famine, in Genesis 12:10:
"There was a famine in the land, so Abram went down to Egypt to stay for a while because the famine was severe." Gen. 1:10
The king of Egypt and his family were struck down with sickness "severe diseases" because of Abraham's lie about Sarai. Of course, all the disobedience.
As for Galatians 3:14, another verse you failed to post, what exactly is Galatians about? It is a book written to correct bad doctrine, some of it coming from the Judaziers. Let's look at the passage here:
'just as Abraham “believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”?
7 Know then that it is those of faith who are the sons of Abraham. 8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify[c] the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you shall all the nations be blessed.”9 So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith. For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed be everyone who does not abide by all things written in the Book of the Law, and do them.” 11 Now it is evident that no one is justified before God by the law, for “The righteous shall live by faith.” 12 But the law is not of faith, rather “The one who does them shall live by them.” 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree”— 14 so that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promised Spirit through faith." GAL. 3:6-14
So, what is this passage above about? It is about healing? NO!! It is about righteousness, or being right before God. In other words, following God, obeying him, and serving him. We can never be righteous in our own strength, but we are to believe for salvation.
In neither passage, Gen. 12:1-3, or Gal. 3:6-14 is healing mentioned. What you have done, is predefined the word "blessing" to mean healing. In fact, the blessing is that "JESUS THE MESSIAH WOULD COME TO SAVE HIS PEOPLE." And please don't post some Strong's definition of sozo. (σῳζω) Bauer - pages 982-983
1. to preserve, rescue, from natural dangers,
a) save from death
b) bring out safely
c) save/free from disease. (Used mostly by Matthew and a little by Luke)
d) keep/preserve in good condition
e) Passive - thrive, prosper, get on well. Something done to you.
2. Save or preserve from transcendent danger or destruction, save/preserve from eternal death. Positive sense of the Messiah bringing salvation
a) of persons who are mediators of divine salvation. Romans 11:14; 1 Cor. 9:22
b) qualities that lead to salvation Luke 7:50
3. Passive - be saved, attain salvation
I know what the definition is in Greek. I know know what the definition of blessing is in Greek! The word eulogia (ἡ εὐλογία) in Bauer (BDAG) pages 408-9 means:
1. act of speaking in favourable terms, praise Rev. 5:12; 7:12.
2."fine speaking" or words that are well chosen, but not true. False eloquence, flattery. Romans 16:18
3. act or benefit of blessing, James 3:10.
a) by which persons call down God's grace upon other person's.
b) of God's activity of blessing.
c) of God's activity in blessing
d. as benefit by God or Christ. Eph. 1:3, Hebrews 12:17
d) in a special sense of divine benefit bestowed in the Eucharist. 1 Cor. 10:16
e) As benefit brought by humans.
4. generous gift or bounty Hb. 6:7
I suggest that all you Word Faith people support your statements with in context Bible verses. I really doubt after reading some of posts here, like the one I have quoted, that most of you Word Faith people have even read the Bible through, let alone the verses you are referring to. Instead of believing lying Word Faith teachers, go back and read your Bible, and you will find out the truth of who God is, and what Jesus came to do. Jesus healed because he had compassion. But, his mission was to bring eternal life, by dying on the cross. That is what the atonement, or redemption is all about!
