then why assume it's physical when the whole verse is talking about Sin before getting to "By whose stripes ye were healed" ?
the one in Peter and the one in Isaiah also.
does anyone here understand that I am talking about 1 Peter 2:24 ..
my friends I believe in healings, I Know God heals!
even in the OT God said those who follow Him He will protect against such diseases.
I am talking about 1 Peter 2:24. let's not twist scripture.
and this also Isaiah 53:5
Abundant life is life in the Spirit.
Salvation = deliverance= newness of life now. Eternal life has already begun for us.
God truly loves to bless His kids as they move in the Spirit but of course the flesh He will not abide or bless.
2000 years ago there were colons :| ?
I fail to see what you see. the verse is talking about spiritual healing
you search for healing in the body, and when you don't find it you get angry. I search for spiritual healing, which is my joy, praise be the name of the LORD.
will you ever understand, that I am talking about that specific verse?
you realize we've had this argument a few times in the past and you've never understood that I am talking about 1 Peter 2:24 and Isaiah 53:5 and not some other verses merged together with those two to make it seem as if THOSE verses are talking about other types of healings ?
it's not by His stripes we're healed of physical!
why would that be true? considering Jesus healed PLENTY of people while He was alive and well on earth, and even before coming to Earth.

again.... maybe the life abundantly means at the resurrection lol ?
why should it be on earth. yes we'll be protected but... we are to preach Christ crucified.. no time to live abundantly =) we will have eternity for that!
my friend and brother, I was only sarcastic when I said that. I knew the truth but I wanted to show you that your argument is not very valid since when it was written there were no colons...
that verse to me tlaks about spiritual healing..
but this verse
14Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. 16Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.
talks about physical healing and also repentance in order to receive spiritual healing..
