Is Healing in the Atonement?

Word of FaithSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the question of whether healing is included in the atonement in this thought-provoking presentation. He examines the arguments put forth by the Word Faith teaching, which asserts that believers should never experience sickness. Gregg challenges this viewpoint, emphasizing the need for a balanced understanding of biblical teachings on healing. Drawing from Isaiah 53 and New Testament scriptures, he presents insightful interpretations and highlights the importance of considering context and literary devices in order to grasp the true meanings behind these verses.
