The Wounded Healer

Wounded Healer

Am glad to see that you are interested in our Wounded Healer. You might have already guessed who it is but the Bible talks about Him in the book of Revelation 13:8, "And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world." Here you may ask, how is the Lamb of God slain from the foundation of the world? It is true; Jesus was slain from the foundation of the world because of our sins. Forgiveness is not free; it comes with a cost. This is the Bible concept. If this law of nature is not followed, the world would be in chaos.

Now think with me for a moment. Let's say someone fell from a ten story high building. According to the law of nature, that someone will get hurt or possibly die. Can you imagine watching someone bouncing off the asphalt and safely landing on their feet after falling? No, it might happen in a dream but not in a real life because that is the law of nature. Then, according to the law of nature, isn't it also true that if you are a sinner and have sinned before, you cannot enter into the kingdom of God? How can the righteous live with unrighteous? That is why someone who is blameless and perfect must be sacrificed for the transgressions that were committed by the sinners. And that is what Jesus did for us, my friends. Jesus has paid for our sins so we can be righteous, peaceful, and happy. "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteous of God in him." [2 Corinthians 5:21] That is why they say, "Our happiness comes from the Lord. It literally does! If it wasn't for Jesus, we would be in despair, stress, guiltiness, sadness, heartbroken 24/7 in this toiling world.
