Hello All,
Exodus 4:11 And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?
Matthew 12: 22 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil (Daimonizomai), BLIND and DUMB: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
devil/Daimonizomai -Greek word to be vexed by an unclean spirit.
Now I ask, do you follow pagan beliefs regarding vexation? Are you sure your Christian beliefs regarding demons, devils, unclean spirits are not beliefs founded by the ideas of pagans, those of Greek philosophers like Plato, or that of Hellenistic Judaism?
Or do you believe God's direct words from scripture?
Deut 28:20 The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke
Deut 30: 19 I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and CURSING; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live;
Isaiah 45:6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. 7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do ALL these things.
Deut 32:39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
Deut 28:15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: 16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field. 17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store. 18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. 19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out. 20 The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me. 21 The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it. 22 The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish. 23 And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron. 24 The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed. 25 The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth. 26 And thy carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray them away. 27 The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed. 28 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart: 29 And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee.....34 So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. 35 The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head...58 If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD; 59 Then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance. 60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee. 61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
1 Samuel 16:23 And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.
Leviticus 13:3 And the priest shall look on the plague in the skin of the flesh: and when the hair in the plague is turned white, and the plague in sight be deeper than the skin of his flesh, it is a plague of leprosy: and the priest shall look on him, and pronounce him unclean...15 And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be unclean: for the raw flesh is unclean: it is a leprosy.
Matthew 8:3 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying,I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
Luke 5:13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying,I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
You are directly told that it is God who makes the deaf, blind, and dumb, it is God that wounds and He that heals, it is God that brings forth blessing and CURSING all manner of plagues, diseases and infirmities, people possessed with VEXATIONS. Deut 28 gives a long list of such vexations. It is God that casts evil spirits and unclean spirits onto people and He likewise heals.
God says there IS NO OTHER it is He ALONE, but yet popular Christian belief that mirrors that of direct paganism and popular Greek philosophy, speaks in fact of another, thus within popular Christian belief you have the image of a false god/a fallen angel that is a wicked spirit with powers to possess you with curses. Denoting the powers and causes that God says He ALONE has and does to another entity is the creation of a FALSE god.
God's obedient angel's carry out God's will of cursing, but yet endless blasphemy against these angels occurs, where they are denoted as wicked rebel spirits against God. Adversary is one who opposes, withstands, and God demanded cursing as He opposes having His angels stand as adversaries/SATAN against man. They are God's eyes and they roam to and fro from the four winds watching over man, where they will bless or curse according to God's will. Those angels who bring curses or withstand against man are thus an adversary/Satan unto man. The angel that stood in the way of Balaam in fact is called directly in scripture SATAN.
Those inflicted by diseases, infirmities, vexations during the time of Jesus as well as before and after, were oppressed by self-righteous adversaries/satan, slanderers/devil, dark rulers who were hypocritical vipers, beasts who were natural men following after their own wicked imaginations. These dark rulers/men of authority treated those inflicted like less than dogs, and Jesus came and healed those oppressed by this adversarial force.
