π "He personally bore our sins in His [own] body on the tree [as on an altar and offered Himself on it], that we might die (cease to exist) to sin and live to righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed." -I Peter 2:24 Amplified Bible Classic Edition
When Jesus died on the cross for us, there was a two-fold redemption: a redemption from sin and sickness. Jesusβs sacrifice freed us from the power of sin and the sickness. We do not have to be a slave to sin or any other habit that is displeasing to God. When sin came into the earth through the fall of mankind, sickness entered in as well. Itβs important to know that we do not have to be sick any more than we have to be in bondage to sin. God set us free from both. So, NEVER FORGET: you are not only righteous, but you are also healed.
