What God intends is for us to become like Christ, with Christ. He is our model of healing and wholeness. As He is the author and perfecter of our faith, so He is the author and perfecter of our healing. The name “Jesus” means both “God saves” and “God heals.” Healing and saving are two phases of the same process, leading toward the same end: union with God. Healing is manifest evidence of salvation; being saved leads inexorably to being healed. In truth, if we are not healed sufficiently to be able to remain in a relationship with God, we will not be able to enter the highest and vastest heaven: mutual life with God.
