Why did Christ have to suffer and die such an ignominious death? It is His blood that has the ability to wash away our sins, could that not have been accomplished without the excruciating pain that Jesus went through?

When God created the world and all that there is in it, He put some natural laws of healing or auto-self-correcting features into the world
God created us in a way that we could become sick, He could have made it that we are impervious to illness, disease, plagues, etc…. Why then did He make us subject sicknesses?
In this series we will cover primarily physical sickness and healing though we will not be able to escape the spiritual aspects and components of it completely.
Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
Galatians 5:23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
It comes with God’s spirit. The word is somewhat counter-intuitive. It is by the power of God in us that we can accomplish what we should, but there is also the element that we have to do our part by using and engaging the holy spirit within us.
One of the main things that I like about James, is that he writes in a direct and concise and uncomplicated manner.
Luke 11:1 Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.”
This is an outline not a prayer that is to be recited, especially over and over. This is the exact opposite of the way that Jesus introduces the model prayer.
This section of scripture can be used as an outline for us as we move forward through the year (and our life) — whether it be at this point in the end-time, after the holy days, or even at this time in our lives.
The book of Jonah has been traditionally read in some circles on the Day of Atonement, what could these two have in common? The answer may surprise you as well as offer some prophetic insight and give us a great big question that we need to prepare an answer for.
