HEALING AT THE CROSS

First of all.... Happy Birhtday to me! :)

Matt 9:6-8
6 "But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" — then He said to the paralytic, "Get up, pick up your bed and go home." 7 And he got up and went home. 8 But when the crowds saw this, they were awestruck, and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.
NASU
** So…. Jesus is saying that if you want to know if I forgive sins, look at the proof of it in my healings. So often times people wonder if Jesus still heals today. Well does He still forgive sins today? YES! So then we can know that if He forgives sin, then He heals too. I know that bothers some people but to me it’s exciting! If Jesus cares so much about forgiving our sins that He died on the cross for them, then we can be sure that He cares so much about our healing that He died for that too. “By His stripes you are healed.”
