Of God and Mankind

1 Peter 2:24 (AMPC) “He (Jesus Christ) personally bore our sins in His [own] body on the tree [as on an altar and offered Himself on it], that we might die (cease to exist) to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed.”   Dear people of God, in the first part of this post on the same topic, we saw evidence from the Holy Bible (Matthew 8:17), that the Lord Jesus Christ took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses and diseases.   What this means is that a Christian should not bear what Jesus has already borne for us.   In today’s lead Holy Bible text above, we see a second evidence in 1 Peter 2:24. The very last verse says by His (Jesus’) wounds you HAVE BEEN healed.   It does not say you are going to be healed or you will be healed. The king James version says, by His stripe s , ye WERE HEALED.   Dear friend, this means the Lord Jesus ALSO took away in His body every sickness and diseases that should come upon us when He died at the Cross ...

  Matthew 8:17 (AMPC) “ And thus He (Jesus Christ) fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, He Himself took [in order to carry away] our weaknesses and infirmities and bore away our diseases.” [Isa. 53:4.]   Dear people of God, I gave a testimony sometime in 2017 how Almighty God and Father of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ gave me understanding through a book from a Christian friend concerning what transpired at the Cross of Calvary when our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ died for our sins.   Today’s lead Holy Bible text gives that same information, which is that the Lord Jesus not only took our sins, but also our weaknesses, infirmities and diseases.   When I understood and believed this Word, the Lord healed me of a 19-year old illness I battled with.   I then bought copies of the same book and shared with a number of friends including one in his fifties.   This friend was told he had High Blood Pressure (HBP) and was given medication whic...

 Malachi 3:8-12 (AMPC) “8 Will a man rob or defraud God? Yet you rob and defraud Me. But you say, In what way do we rob or defraud You? [You have withheld your] tithes and offerings.   9 You are cursed with the curse, for you are robbing Me, even this whole nation. [Lev. 26:14-17.]   10 Bring all the tithes (the whole tenth of your income) into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and prove Me now by it, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. [Mal. 2:2.]   11 And I will rebuke the devourer [insects and plagues] for your sakes and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground, neither shall your vine drop its fruit before the time in the field, says the Lord of hosts.   12 And all nations shall call you happy and blessed, for you shall be a land of delight, says the Lord of hosts.”   De...

2 Timothy 2:15-18 (AMPC) 15 Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth. 16 But avoid all empty (vain, useless, idle) talk, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness. 17 And their teaching [will devour; it] will eat its way like cancer or spread like gangrene. So it is with Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18 Who have missed the mark and swerved from the truth by arguing that the resurrection has already taken place. They are undermining the faith of some." Dear people of God, just last Saturday January 5, 2019, my spouse and I went on Evangelism and we encountered a man who introduced himself as “a student of the Bible.” We later discovered the man does not attend Church but has been making a study of the Holy Bible. The man initially collected the tract I handed him, read a bit of i...
