1. The Doctrine of Healing. Healing was the two-fold deliverance in the cross of Cavalry. Christ purchased our healing on the cross by His stripes and His blood wash all our sins. He forgave all and he healed all.
This is "the faith... once delivered unto the saints" (Jude 3). Healing in Christ is for today. Has God changed His mind about healing in the Gospel? What has happen that we pay so little attention to it today? Why is it not still universally taught and realized in Gospel teaching and preaching today? Did it disappear with the first age of the church called the apostolic age? Was it taken away when Peter, Paul and John were removed off the scene of the church? Of course not! Healing has remained with the church for centuries and only seemly disappeared gradually in the church's growing worldliness, corruption, formalism and unbelief toward the New Testament church's age.
Jesus begins His ministry by healing all who needed healing; Christ closes His human life upon the earth making full claim in the atonement for our sin and healing on the cross. Christ says to His' Church, "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved, but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils;... they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover" (Mark 16:15-18).
