Issue of blood:
Matthew 9:20
Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak.
Itch:
Deuteronomy 28:27
The Lord will afflict you with the boils of Egypt and with tumors, festering sores and the itch, from which you cannot be cured.
Sun stroke;
2 Kings 4:18
The child grew, and one day he went out to his father, who was with the reapers.
Isaiah 49:10
They will neither hunger nor thirst, nor will the desert heat or beat down on them. He who has compassion on them will guide them and lead them beside springs of water.
Ulcers:
Isaiah 1:6
From the sole of your foot to the top of your head there is no soundness—only wounds and welts and open sores, not cleansed or bandaged or soothed with olive oil.
Luke 16:20
At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores
1 Corinthians 8:8-9
But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do. Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak.
Thoughts on This Verse....
We have incredible freedom under grace. However, our freedom never gives us the license to destroy a weak brother or sister's walk with the Lord. Let's use our freedom considerately, especially toward our new brothers and sisters in Christ. These new Christians need our encouragement; they already have enough stumbling blocks!
