Leonard Sweet Stated In His Book The Jesus ...
Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Aug 6, 2008 (message contributor)
Leonard Sweet stated in his book The Jesus Prescription for a Healthy Life said this: "The promise of God is health and wellness. Faith in God is physically good for you. Denying God is bad for your health. The first undisputed mention of disease in the Bible includes the words 'I am the Lord who heals you' (Exod. 15:26). There is healing for you today. God's eye is not hazy that it cannot see. God's ear is not heavy that it cannot hear. God's hand is not hampered that it cannot save. God's heart is not hardened that it cannot heal. The healing dimensions to the gospel are neglected at our peril. Indeed, from a biblical perspective, health and salvation are the same phenomenon; they are different ways of talking about the same thing. The Greek word soter means both 'savior' and 'healer'" (Page 12).
