While Jesus was on this earth, He demonstrated the close relationship between healing and salvation. Clearly physical healing is a type of salvation...a physical salvation. We know that because Jesus was able to heal in the flesh that He will grant us salvation in the spirit and allow us the gift of eternal life.

Neither our salvation or our ultimate reward is determined on our being healed or not in this physical lifetime.
