Isa 35:4 Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.

5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.

6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.

Isa 40:29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Isa 53:4-5

Surely He has lifted our sickness and our pain;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken , smitten by God and afflicted.
But He was wounded fro our transgressions.
He was bruised for our iniquities;
He was chastened for our well-being.
and by His scourging we are healed.



I bore your sickness. Isa 53:4
I carried your pain. Isa 53:4
I was put to sickness for you. Isa 53:10
With my stripes you were healed. Isa 53:5

Eze 36:16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.

If we are going to trust Pauls revelations,and guidance,than I think we have to not forget an important issue here..:idea:

After all,it is scripture.:)

This verse below is right out of the word of God too..

It is not a gnat,just because it is one verse..

After all,John 3:16 is but one verse...;)

If healings are an assolute,an an all for all,all the time condition..

What happened here?

2 Tim 4:20
Erastus stayed in Corinth, and I left Trophimus sick in Miletus.

Also,the Paul,whose garment healed some,also said this..

Gal 4: 13-14
As you know, it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you. Even though my illness was a trial to you, you did not treat me with contempt or scorn. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus himself.

Also,why did he not just heal poor ole Timothy?

1 Tim 4:23
Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine because of your stomach and your frequent illnesses

Seems like we need to have a whole view of scriptures..:thumbsup:

Since Spiritman won't address these issues perhaps I can. We relate to God on the basis of faith. That's how we receive everything from God. Furthermore, healing isn't always instantaneous. Some healings take time with lots of prayer and study involved.

Regarding Trophimus, perhaps he didn't have faith to be healed. In order to receive healing you have to believe you will receive it. Remember that Jesus often couldn't do miracles in some towns because of unbelief. Also, Paul was arrested shortly after leaving Trophimus; although the book of Acts oddly doesn't say that Paul passed through Miletus on his way to Rome. It could be that Paul was released from prison in Rome briefly, passed through Miletus then arrested again. Whatever the case, Paul cannot be blamed for Trophimus not being healed. There was either not enough time to teach him, Trophimus simply didn't believe, or his healing came slowly and Paul had to depart so quickly that Trophimus was still sick when he left.

As for Paul's infirmities; remember that Paul was beaten badly (and left for dead) in Lystra (Acts 14:19) which is in the Galatian region. Paul was in a bad way from the beating while he preached in Galatia and it is likely that this is the infirmity he is speaking of in his letter to the Galatians.

As for Timothy, maybe polluted water was making him sick? Paul told him to stop drinking only water and drink wine (real wine, not fermented or watered down or whatever else legalists like to believe). Sometimes God can give a practical cure to our healing, and sometimes healing involves going to the doctor. Not all healing has to be a supernatural, instantaneous manifestation. In fact, in my own experience (and the experience I've seen of others close to me) healing is often slow and a matter of trusting God daily. Sometimes people don't actually have the faith for a supernatural healing, but nevertheless believe that God can heal and so they go to the doctor trusting that God will heal them via medicine.

The verses you quoted don't disprove that healing is in the atonement. There are many factors involved in healing as I've tried to clarify in this post. It is not God's will for us to be sick. One day we will all die, but nowhere in the Bible does it say we have to die of sickness.

Mt 8:16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:

17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

Thank you Jesus for taking sickness from me.
