Death as the Final Healing

Death as the final healing. Yet not our death. Only Jesus' death.

We may pray for healing for ourselves and for those we love in circumstances that afflict us or them. In doing so we naturally desire healing in this life. However, as we desire and pray, we must keep in mind and heart the fundamental principle - and in the cruciform grace of God's salvation economy, it is even a promise and a hope - that only death is the final true healing, in Jesus' death.
