Healing is not a ministry of the average church

God is “The Great ‘I Was’ ” for healing

Little faith for actual healing by God

Salvation Includes Healing

Jesus Came to heal the Whole Person:Spirit, Emotions and Body

Is. 53:3: He is despised and rejected by men,A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him;

He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.4 Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows;Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.

5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,He was bruised for our iniquities;

The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,And by His stripes we are healed.

6 All we like sheep have gone astray;We have turned, every one, to his own way;

And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
