I just want to share something here about the Bible... :D and the promises of our God... this thread is for Christians here... I want to know your opinions about this... :)
Jesus could heal every sick and ailing person who was brought to him. There was not a one whom he was unable to restore to health, regardless of their ailment or infirmity. Moreover, he miraculously fed thousands with only a few fishes and loaves of bread, and he did so on more than one occasion. --Matthew 14:14-22; 15:30-38.
When Jesus restored sight to a man born blind, neighbors and acquaintances acknowledged the miracle, but Jewish religious leaders were skeptical. So the man whose sight had been restored reasoned with them: "From of old it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of one born blind. If this man were not from God, he could do nothing at all." --John 9:32, 33.
During Jesus' ministry his cousin John the Baptist, who had been imprisoned, sent messengers to confirm reports about Jesus. "In that hour," the Bible says, Jesus "cured many of sicknesses and grievous diseases and wicked spirits, and granted many blind persons the favor of seeing." Then Jesus told the messengers: "Report to John what you saw and heard: the blind are receiving sight, the lame are walking, the lepers are being cleansed and the deaf are hearing, the dead are being raised up." --Luke 7:18-22.
Think of it: If something good occurred in the past, would that not give you confidence that it could happen again? By means of his miracles, Jesus demonstrated on a small scale what he will do on a grand scale during his rule as King of God's Kingdom. His miracles serve as proof that he was sent by God and that he really was God's Son. During the rule of God's Kingdom, there will be a literal fulfillment of prophecies of marvelous things. As foretold, blind eyes will be opened, deaf ears will be unstopped, the lame will leap as a deer, and no one will be sick. There will also be peace and security everywhere on earth. Even animals that are now dangerous will be at peace with man. --Isaiah 9:6, 7; 11:6-9; 33:24; 35:5, 6; 65:17-25.
This is what God promises for the earth :nya:
Would you like to live forever under the rule of God's Kingdom, surrounded by such conditions? :) Jesus showed what you must do when he said in prayer to his father: "This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ." (John 17:3) May you allow nothing to prevent you from continuing to take in such life-giving knowledge. :)
Give me your comments & opinions guys... :)
What do you think about the promises of God? :D
[Note: If you don't believe in the bible, you're not believing in God, because the bible is "God's Word"]
