And took pleasure in infirmities!
Q: You teach that physical healing is included in the Gospel, and that all Christians can enjoy perfect health by faith in God. Yet in 2 Cor. 12 Paul writes that he boasts in his infirmities, that he may be able to glorify God despite them. How do you answer that?
A: Easily, you have misunderstood both the Gospel, and what the Holy Ghost was saying in 2 Co. chapter 12. Let’s hear it uncorrupted, 2 Co. 12:2-10 KJV;
I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven. And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
