Bible Note: The second book on your recommended list, "Bodily Healing and the Atonement" by McCrossan, contains fatal errors of theology that are in direct conflict with Scripture. I will be happy to expand on this statement if you wish. An appropriate subtitle for the book might be "Healing on Demand" which is part and parcel of the Word of Faith Movement's heretical "name-it-and-claim-it" dictum. I am not familiar with the other two books you name. ....... Atdcross, we welcome you as a new registrant of Study Bible Forum. Since this is a site devoted to Bible study, and as such, whatever is taught here should be carefully documented by Scripture, it is requested that you back up with scriptural proof your statement: "The word 'healed' refers to the whole man, spirit and body, in both the Hebrew Scriptures and the NT." We are far more interested in what the Bible teaches on healing, both spiritual and physical, than on what man thinks about it. Thank you in advance as we await your response. --Hank |
