HEALED BODIES TO HELL |

“But he was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, And by His wounds we are healed.” [Isa 53:5] Are
the wounds of our crucified Lord Jesus Christ, meant for the
healing of human sicknesses ???? It
is a portion related to the Messiah. His disciple Mathew himself had
agreed that the promise had been fulfilled when he healed the sick, the
lame, and blind etc. when the Lord was on the earth. But that healing or
any healing now in this body is not at all a permanent one. All human
beings may become sick as long as they are in the flesh. All including
believers are surrounded by various disease germs, which will continue
till the Lord comes. St.Paul had a “thorn” in his body (some kind of
sickness) 2Cor 12:7. Breaking
the divine laws of God, laws of the nature or of our bodies, we
believers may become sick. We all are living on this cursed earth.
Disease and decease both will continue till our Lord returns. None
should try to read the passage of no writings! In
Isa 53:5, the Holy Spirit may have the idea to equalize the sinful
wretched condition of man with the terrible sickly stage. This is why
the backslidden sinful condition is termed as hopeless in Isa 1:4-6,
“Bruises, putrefying condition” is allegorically described there.
God’s treatment for sinful jews, was invasion of Israel by the
gentiles around. This is what we see in the ensuing chapters.
Sin-sickness is a permitted phrase in the Holy Bible. It is a fact that
Messiah was made to pass through terrible physical wounds and pain. That
saved the believers from this physical wounds and pain. That saved the
believers from physical pain in the eternal hell of fire. He bore our
sins and sorrows. This demands our tearful acceptance of that suffering
inflicting Jesus in his body. Peter ratifies this in 1pt 2:24 “He bore
our sins in His body.” This was for the entire people of the world.
But are they forgiven…., if people don’t accept the propitiation
with repentance….? What was dealt with on the cross was the
sins-sickness. Therefore, confession with the mouth and belief in
the heart are demanded in Rom.10:9. THEY
DID MIRACLES IN JESUS NAME, BUT JESUS SAID TO THEM, “YE WORKERS OF
INIQUITY, DEPART” “Is it true?” Yes, you read Mt. 7:21,22, “Not every one that says to me, Lord, Lord shall enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that does the will of my father. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in your name? And have we not cast out demons in your name, and done many wonderful works. Then I will profess unto them”, I never knew you, depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Here approach to Jesus some workers of miracles in His name, but Jesus cast them out. Why are they workers of iniquity? Why are they doomed to hell? They used Jesus name to do miracles; but were not concerned about their sins nor about others’ sins and about the death of Christ for their sins. That was iniquity and wickedness. They misled people to run after miracles and left them to die in their sins. Some others believed seeing miracles; they too will perish. There was a Simon (who used sorcery and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one ) mentioned in Acts 8:13. “Simon himself believed also and when he was baptized beholding the miracles and signs which were done…, When Simon was…. Saying give me also this power that whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive power that whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit. But Peter said unto him, your money perish with thee… you have neither part nor lot in this matter, your heart is not right in the sight of God. Repent, therefore, of this your wickedness and pray God, if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you, for I perceive that you are in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.” Why this wretched fate to Simon? He was in the bond of iniquity. He too was not moved by the agony of death of Christ for his sins. Simon needed real repentance and true faith in the crucified Christ not in the wonder working Christ. These people were interested only in doing miracles using the name of Jesus. Miracle of healing can be performed by Satanic powers also. But Jesus is matchless in forgiving sins and giving eternal life to seekers of entry in the Kingdom of heaven. This faith and the resultant repentance they didn’t have and hence we in the bond of iniquity; hence in Peril. Some do believe seeing miracles, but are untrustworthy to Jesus. This bitter fact is mentioned in Jn 2:23-24 “When Jesus was in Jerusalem… Many believed in His name when they saw the miracles Jesus did. But Jesus didn’t commit Himself unto them, because he knew all men…” Jesus did not commit himself to those believers because they were untrustworthy. They were wonder believers not the Savior-believers. They wanted Christ without the cross. Jesus rejected them also. How sad!.
Today’s
Jesus is preached as miracle man rather than as a Savior of the World.
Festivals of healing and charisma too are infected by the above Satanic
deception and cunningness. A duplicate message and appeal they give out;
an appeal for healing and problem solution is lavishly sent out; no
appeal for faith in the crucified Christ, no call for repentance. Bodily
sick people in such crusade throng in large numbers for physical
healing. Some bodies may be healed, but they return with their sins
unforgiven. They will be sick again, die and go without hope to the Day
of Judgment. Healed bodies to hell! Sad indeed….
Friends, the aforesaid three
scripture portions warn us against people who do not preach the truth of
the gospel of salvation, but campaign for healing or other miracles
which God calls as unrighteousness and iniquity. Millions are
prepared to run after the antichrist who comes with signs and wonders.
Innocent people are misled to the day of judgment and peril. None of the apostles or even our Lord held campaigns of healing. (True they healed the sick who came across them occasionally). Instead they preached the way of salvation. Peter called upon the people: Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins. “Repent and be converted that your sins may be blotted out”.(Acts 2:38; 3:19). Paul preached, “But Christ whom God raised again, saw not corruption, Be it known unto you therefore, that through this man (Jesus) is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins..” (Acts 13:37,38). These are the models of the gospel sermons which stands sublimely in contrast to the unrighteous charismatic appeals. In Jesus’ name some may be healed by they will become again sick and die one day. “After death comes judgment” if they die in sins (Heb 9:28).
What you need most is
forgiveness of your sins, not healing or problem cure. The latter thing
are temporary; but salvation brings eternal life to live in God’s
Kingdom. What d o you prefer? Scripture says till Christ comes and till
our bodies are glorified, “the whole creation groans and travails
in pain together until now/” (Rom 8:22).
Reader, what you need most
is forgiveness of your sins; healing will not take away the pain of the
hell. If you live and die as a saved person, when Christ comes in the
air, your body will be made alive and glorified by the Lord. Cease from
running after healing or
miracles. Jesus considers it as wickedness. You need forgiveness of your
sins. In Hebrew 2:3 Paul asks “ How shall we escape if we
neglect so great a salvation which at first began to be spoken by the
Lord…?” If you are healed in your body but died in your sins, you
will stand before God’s judgment throne and will be judged and
sentenced to go to hell. You will go to hell with your healed body! Friend, Christ has poured out his soul unto death and was numbered with the transgressors; and He bore the sins of many and made intercession for transgressors, prophesied Isaiah in the 8th century B.C.53:!2). Jesus gave his life and blood as a ransom for your sins. Believe this, confess your sins and ask pardon in Christ’s name. Immediately your sins will be forgiven. St. John wrote- “If we confess our sins, God is faithful to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness”. You need it. Confess right now. If your sins are forgiven your sickly body will be changed to a glorified body and you will be free from all curses and problems for ever when Christ comes again. Be a child of God first. And pray for relief from your sickness and problems. Subject to God’s will He will answer you. Be patient and submit to God’s will and be a bright witness to him even in trials. Thus be an ideal Christian. Your soul’s healing is important, not body’s healing. Campaign for mere body healing is a deception and leads to a false belief and false satisfaction and it is Satan’s way. If you need more counseling, please feel free to write to the Author. *******
