Jesus healed to fulfill the ancient prophetic picture of the Messiah: "Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses." But if it was necessary then for Him to fulfill that character, it is as much so now...
If this is not true still for us, then Jesus Christ is not "the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever." If this is not still true for us, then -- perhaps -- the other promises of the Scriptures are also not true for us, and He has not borne our sins any more than our sickness and suffering. n
No, His heart is still the same.
--A.B. Simpson
