"And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city. And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee."
In the last sentence of today's quote Jesus said, "Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee." Notice He didn't say 'your palsy is healed'. That indicates that the reason for the man's palsy was the sin that was in him, not just because he had come into contact with some disease.
It is important today that all of us remember all illness is caused by the sin that is inherent in mankind since to disobedience of Adam. I am convinced that if a born again child of God were to live his/her life in perfect accordance with the instructions Jesus laid out for us during His ministry, we would never suffer illness of any kind.~
