2. The Atonement and Healing

3. Old Testament
Atonement referred to a ransom price paid for redemption and restoration
Leviticus 16 – brought release from the penalty of sin and brought restoration of God’s favor – this POINTED to the redemption through Christ where He shed his blood on our behalf in our place.
Romans 3:25 – God has set Him forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood.

4. Psalms 103:2-4 (NKJV)
Blessed the Lord, O my soul, and forget (neglect) not all his benefits; who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, and crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies

5. 3 Important Reminders
All – Hebrew “kowl” (kole) meaning complete; to make whole in every manner
Who forgives ALL your iniquities – faults, sins, perversity
Who heals ALL your diseases – grievous maladies; sickness

6. If we only believe that God wants to save us from sin then we are neglecting some of HIS benefits and are missing out. God wants to save us; He also wants to HEAL us. Both are part of His benefits.

7. Isaiah 53:4-5
Surely, He has borne our grief’s and carried our sorrows. 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.

12. Matthew 10:7-8 (Luke 9:6)
As you go, preach this message: “The kingdom of heaven is near.” Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.

The gifts of healing (1 Corinthians 12:9-10

16. The scripture tell us that we are to pray for the sick
The scripture tell us that we are to pray for the sick. Divine Healing is part of our Pentecostal heritage and a teaching that should never be watered down. We recognize that we do not understand all that pertains to divine healing. We do not understand why some people are healed and some are not. The scriptures make it clear however, that God wants us to preach the Gospel, pray for the sick and expect signs and miracles to follow as a sign to the world that Jesus is still alive and is the same yesterday, today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8)
