Healing Section: Excerpts on Healing from our Booklets«Return to Healing Resource Center
From our booklet on the Ten Commandments:
By breaking the Third Commandment, millions of human beings are
not only bringing upon themselves the automatic penalty of death
- death by Gehenna fire unless they REPENT of this enormous sin -
they are also depriving themselves of the wonderful knowledge of
the Eternal God; the knowledge and understanding of His great purpose
and plan, and depriving themselves of the fabulous gifts of God's
Holy Spirit, including repentance, conversion, the receiving of God's
Holy Spirit, and healing.
From the booklet, "Why Keep Saturday for
Sunday:
Do you want God to fulfill His promise to you of GIVING you eternal life
if you repent of sin, and surrender to Him?
Do you want God
to keep His word? To fulfill His promises? God makes promises about
healing us when we are sick; about delivering us from terrible troubles;
about taking our spirit unto Himself, and then bringing us back from the
dead at the resurrection! He makes many wondrous promises! You and I
hope God will FULFILL His promises, just like we hope a car or home we
purchase will be delivered to us lawfully-LEGALLY!
The Old
Testament is just that: a testament between God and His people, like a
will. God promised to be Israel's God; to be their protector, provider,
and faithful "husband," if they would obey His laws, which were
given for their good.
From our booklet,
"What is God's Name?":
"What's in a
Name?"
A name
merely means, "A word or a phrase that constitutes the distinctive
designation of a person or a thing," or, a word that conveys meaning,
designation, character, nature, identity, and understanding about
that person or thing.
The names and
titles of God do precisely that. They convey to our mind as we think
deeply about the many names, titles and attributes of God, His creative
power, His covenant relationship with man, His boundless goodness, His
limitless grace, His fathomless mercy, His majesty, His awesome POWER,
and help us to develop that healthy AWE of our great Creator God, and
the family called "Elohim," that God intends.
Remember, Jesus
said we should commence our prayers by addressing the One whom Jesus
came to reveal; the "Father" of the Divine Family called
"Elohim," as "Our Father, who art in heaven." Is it "wrong" to
apply some of the Divine names and titles to God when searching for Him
in prayer? Not at all! There are appropriate occasions when I will use
God's Divine title, "Jehovah-Ropheka," when I am praying for healing
for someone. If, in our prayers, we sometimes speak of God in one of
the Bible-revealed names or titles which are appropriate to the
occasion, this would seem proper. On the other hand, as you reflect on
everything you have learned in this brief booklet, it appears
ludicrous that God wants us to single out only one of the
many, many Divine names and titles and unfailingly attempt to contact
Him by using our own fallible anglicized attempts at pronouncing ancient
Hebrew (which we cannot do with any degree of accuracy!) and,
unless we do so, God will not hear!
From the
Doctrinal Statement [STP] on the Holy Days:
Passover:
The bread and wine which Jesus
instituted at His last supper and which are taken yearly by the Church
today are explained symbolically both by Jesus Himself and by the
apostle Paul. The wine represents the shed blood of Jesus who gave
Himself as an offering to pay for all the sins of mankind. That full and
complete sacrifice makes it possible for one to have any and all sins
forgiven upon repentance. The wine also represents the New Covenant made
between God and the Christian by the blood of Christ.
The bread represents the body of Jesus
which was torn and beaten for us all, in Christ's ultimate sacrifice for
mankind. Perhaps the fullest discussion of its meaning is found in John
6, in which it is shown that Jesus is the "bread of life." The eating of
the bread and the drinking of the wine represent partaking of the
eternal life which only God can give. The beaten body of Christ also
represents the stripes He took on His back enabling us to claim the gift
of divine healing for our physical infirmities (Is. 53:4-5; 1 Pet.
2:24).
From the booklet, "Europe and America in
Prophecy":
From the "riddle and the parable," and the puzzle of the "scarlet
thread" (the famous "breach" between the Pharez and the Zarah line), we
learned that God intended cropping off a "tender twig" of the royal
tree representing the lineage of David-and that this
represented one of the king's daughters, who would be "planted"
(according to Jeremiah's commission) in a new land.
Thus, Almighty
God intended healing the breach between the two lines; fulfilling
His promise to David until the time of the second coming of Jesus
Christ, until "He come whose right it is"! (Ezekiel 21:25-27).

(7) ANSWERED PRAYER. Of course, evolutionists never pray. But
there have been countless thousands of miraculous answers to prayer-they
occur every day! The miracles of Christ were real! The intervention of
God through miraculous healings is documented down through history! That
God answers the PRAYERS of His converted, believing people is
an absolute proof of God.
From our booklet, "How to have a Happy
Marriage":
If you are of the millions who have gone through divorce, whose marriage
is miserably unhappy, perhaps you should commence the healing process by
first looking to find the root cause of your marital failures.
Come to understand all the influences which have shaped you, made you
what you are. Then, where you can come face to face with your own
responsibility for your attitudes and actions, repent of them.
Where you can understand that other influences-an abusive parent, for
example-was largely responsible for some of your psychoses, then you can
conquer such attitudes by admitting their cause, analyze why you act the
way you do, and work to overcome them.
Coming to understand that you are a product of your
upbringing does not suggest that, as an adult, you do not accept
responsibility for your actions. Rather, it should be the beginning of a
healing process, a way of overcoming subconscious guilt, a first step
toward a new and different outlook.
In
Word from commentary, "What is your Goal?" and speaking about what the World Tomorrow will be
like:
(8) There will be no stock markets, no bond markets, no futures markets,
and no speculation about precious metals. There will be no labor unions,
no insurance companies, no doctors, clinics, hospitals, hospices or
nursing homes. There will be instantaneous HEALING for those who become
sick, and all employers will be required to give fair wages for a fair
day's work.
From our booklet, "Abomination of Desolation"
"And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast
before him, [the first beast of Revelation 13 is the same beast as the fourth
beast of Daniel 7; representing Imperial Rome from the time of the earliest
Roman emperors, and Romulus who gave Rome its name, to the latter-day rulers of
the "Holy Roman Empire"] and causeth the earth and them that dwell therein to
worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed" (Revelation 13:11-12).
This deadly wound was the fall of Imperial Rome in 476. Its healing was in
554, when Belesarius, victorious in northern Africa, was instrumental in
restoring the power of Rome. Notice that this false religious leader, the
"little horn" who thought to change times and laws, who was full of names of
blasphemy, and who martyred God's saints is empowered by Satan to perform
miracles.
From our booklet, "Answer to Unanswered Prayer"
Jesus Christ said we are to show honor, respect, even awe toward the name of
God, by including in our prayer, "Hallowed be Thy Name." He intended that we
come to understand the many names and titles of both Himself and His Father;
that we come to know the usage of His names and titles as they relate to various
situations. For example, if one were to pray to God for healing, it would be
altogether appropriate to remind God that one of His very names is Jehovah
(or Yawveh) Ropheka, God our Healer.
------
I have known of dozens and dozens of miraculous hearings in my more than
thirty-one years in Christ's ministry. I have heard personal testimonials, read
letters by the score of those who have experienced dramatic healings; those who
have been blessed with new jobs, increased income, or been delivered out of
terrible trials. I know all things are possible with God.
From our page, "Memorize the Bible":
Exodus 15
- Healing Covenant
Psalm 103 - Healing: Forgives all your sins,
heals all your diseases
Mark 16 - And He said unto them, Go you into all the
world, and Preach the Gospel to every creature. And they went
forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with
them, and confirming the word with signs following; Healing
