SALVATON IS GOD’S FREE GIFT TO MANKIND
The subject of physical healing has never hurt anyone like it did Jesus. Just as Jesus bore all the sin of the world, He bore all the world’s sicknesses! Father takes very personal what His Boy went through on our behalf. He expects us to take it personal too! Until Jesus’ unspeakable agony for the […]

IS HEALING SUPPOSED TO HURT? PART 11
I’ve yet to hear anyone disprove that undeniable healing and demonstrable power over demons are inferior to other methods of convincing and captivating the lost world, filled with false religions, atheism, and kinds of deception. (Obviously, I’m not promoting signs apart from Christ-like love and virtues.) It has never been “either/or” but always “both/and”! Which […]
IS HEALING SUPPOSED TO HURT? PART 10
I’ve asked my home church this very telling question: When I say that it is always the will of God to heal everyone, what first comes to your mind? (I personally think there are two primary sources for hesitancy and resistance.) 1. “That statement has not been my only, consistent experience, nor that of anyone […]
IS HEALING SUPPOSED TO HURT? PART 9
It is my opinion that many non-Calvinists in the area of salvation from sin are often unaware of their Calvinistic beliefs concerning divine healing. Consider the famous, soteriological acronym “TULIP” with an application to physical healing (If you are unfamiliar with the traditional meaning of Calvinism’s TULIP, you may not recognize the significance of my […]

44a. We don’t and shouldn’t allow experiences to make our doctrine in the area of salvation from sin, regardless of whose experience it is or how contrary to the Word it is. (Psa 19:7-10, Mat 15:3-9, Jn 7:17-18, Eph 4:11-15, 2 Tim 3:16, Tit 1:9, Jud 3) 44b. Why is experience that deciding factor […]
IS HEALING SUPPOSED TO HURT? PART 8
If the will of God for physical healing is in question than it is for spiritual salvation as well. For every one Scripture/passage used to disprove God’s will to heal everyone, I dare say that there are three to four Scriptures/passages that could be used to disprove God’s will to save everyone. (*Only if the […]

Additional Thoughts About Salvation and Healing We cannot afford to assume about faith. We must know what God considers to be faith by what He has said. To my current level of understanding, I personally consider the following to be the fullest description of faith (or what it means to believe): I am convinced/persuaded […]
IS HEALING SUPPOSED TO HURT? PART 5
31a. Everyone recognizes that salvation from sin is a chosen relationship with Jesus as our Saviour and Lord. (Lu 9:23, Jn 14:23, Rev 3:20) 31b. Salvation from sickness is a chosen relationship with Jesus as our Healer. (Same references as above) 32a. We teach that a person must have an ongoing relationship with […]

22a. It is unacceptable to make what the Bible says about salvation from sin fit our experience, if our experience is contrary. A preacher doesn’t stop believing and preaching salvation is the will of God because one of their children tragically dies lost. (Num 23:19, Psa 33:4, Psa 89:34, Psa 119:89, Mat 24:35, Rom 3:3-4, […]

10a. We believe the perfect freedom from sin’s dominion is provided though not always appropriated and experienced by us. Every Christian would have to admit this. (Rom 6, 8) 10b. For some reason, we have a harder time believing that perfect freedom from sickness’s dominion is provided though not always appropriated and experienced by […]

Now that we have established the connection in the Atonement, let us look at the comparisons of application (appropriating the provision of the atonement). These comparisons serve the purpose of answering the second question above. 2. How is healing received and ministered? (Whose faith makes the difference?): *Side note: The following comparisons are structured so […]
IS HEALING SUPPOSED TO HURT? PART 1
Avoiding Offense and Intimidation Through Understanding Salvation From Sin and Sickness It is my personal belief that much of the difficulty we face in the area of experiencing divine healing is due to emotional pressures and misunderstandings, which result in unbelief. These hindrances seem to be more abundant in the area of healing from sickness […]
BE RECONCILED TO GOD!
There is nothing more important than knowing that you are saved according to God’s definition. Although salvation could be explored from so many legitimate angles, the meaning of salvation can very simply be summed up in one word, “reconciliation.” This reconciliation puts the life of God (Greek word “Zoe”) back into us and restores us […]
