Healing was never promised in the atonement of Christ.

And yet a lot of Pentecostal teaching says it is. *By His stripes we are healed*.

And yet I still see an awful lot of people who still have physical issues, have never been healed.

And even if they are, do know how many people still wear glasses? Or go to the dentist? Or wear shoe inserts?

Healing should be for the WHOLE body at that point and yet is seems that the biggest claims to healing are for cancer and back problems.

There's a huge disconnect between theology and reality in Pentecostalism and nobody seems to want to address it much from within.

Thanks for the link. I'll look at that.

At this point, I believe I’ll drop this discussion.

Because for one, I do not want to get booted off of here.

For two, I just do not believe in IMPOSING my beliefs on anyone else. I have my beliefs and I leave it at that. All I ask, is that others respect my beliefs and I’ll do the same.

Thanks,

-DR
