Christians: how should I answer this? Aman I know is dying and he said?
I WAS born with a conginital defect that manifests in a prsonality disorder. It is the reason my father never could hold me, or say 'I love you' , and the reason my other family members made fun of me and lied to me to avoid having me hang with them. It is the reason I occasionally say things wrong, and the reason I offend people without trying.. It is the reason I have had trouble with obeying the law and the source of all my grief.. I hate my life, myself and, sometimes, even God who made me. I cry often from the emotional pain it has caused me and all those I love. I wake up every day of my life in physical pain because of it, and It is the reason I took drugs so long.. I have asked God thousands of times to heal me, yet I have it still. Now, my youngest son has the same thing. How horrible a thing to give to your own son.So, when Isaiah wrote ,"by his stripes we are healed",and Paul wrote ,"we were healed". And Jesus said 'all you who are weary and heavy laden",were they lying?

no ,healing isn't just a physical thing,sometimes it is referring to emotional or mental there are alot of people who live with physical pain daily and yet choose to follow Jesus,in fact Paul was believed to have had a physical ailment yet served the Lord no matter what
No, the scriptures do not lie. They also tell us that rain falls on the just and upon the wicked. While the man did not a blissfully wonderful childhood, I can't think of a single person that did. We all grow up with problems, difficulties, hurdles to overcome, and some people seem to have more than their fair share.
Not every actor plays on Broadway, some play off-off-off Broadway in theatres that are small, old, poorly equipped, and sparcely attended. Still others must do their acting in Summer Theatre groups in rural locations.
But given what each of us has, we can still play out our lives to the best of our abilities. Difficulties in the past should not hold us back from the future. We cannot change the past, but our future is built upon the foundation we lay today.
The rejection and sense of loss from the man's childhood is tragic. But now his son has the same condition. This is a child that the man can relate to, and love unconditionally. He can avoid the mistakes and lack of affection given to him, and build a better father-son relationship than he had himself. It starts with a simple "I love you." for his son.
The lives of this man and his change can begin a new path, if the Dad wants it. Then neither will ever feel alone and rejected again. DIfferent? Perhaps, but new life has to start someplace, sometime. Encourage him to make it here, today.
No, they were not lying. By your own admission you haven't been a Christian, because of your affliction. There are people out there with more problems than you. Have you ever tried praying for them or just for yourself? You seem to hate everybody. I feel sorry for you, but stop being poor pitiful me and do something to make God want to help you. If you don't believe he'll help you, call the 700 Club and ask for prayer and ask them to send you the DVD "12 Miracles Touched By The Hand of God. And Miracles can be yours. I guarantee things will be better for you. May God bless you.
No they weren't lying. Our idea of healing is almost always a physical healing, and staying here on Earth. Those that trust God and Jesus for their salvation will see healing in God's way and in God's time. We just need to trust him, that he knows what we need and when we need it. If the healing your friend will receive is the healing that comes from eternal life with God, then so be it. God still heals people on Earth, but some he chooses to take home for the ultimate healing. I hope your friend understands.
Yes, it is all a lie. I'm surprised you found a mate with such an affliction. Didn't any doctors tell you that you might pass this along to any children you have? When your genes are so badly defected, it is wrong to intentionally procreate, in my opinion. Accidents do happen and I understand that could be the case. I would see a specialist to try to find something to help you and your son with this problem. God will not magically drop the cure from the sky, don't even bother asking any further, he's not listening. Help yourself, seek out a professional to fix your problem if possible.
