Christ the Healer by Fred Francis Bosworth (1975, Paperback)

Review of FF Bosworth's Christ The Healer.

This book is actually the notes organized from 12 of F.F. Bosworth's sermons concerning what the Lord has to say in His Word concerning healing (PHYSICAL HEALING). The Lord completely renewed my mind though the biblical teaching contained in this book !! I have a revelation of God's attitude and Will concerning bodily healing, as well as sickness, disease, and all other such things of the curse that we are redeemed from !! This book does not contain opinions or man's doctrines. This book is straight Bible. Every thing stated is backed up with an uncontradictable amount of the Word !! I now walk in a deeper revelation of God's unconditional love for us and that He is GOOD. GOD IS GOOD. Not even an unsaved, wicked earthly father would EVER desire that his son or daughter be sick or diseased, but HOW MUCH MORE shall your Father in Heaven give GOOD things to them that ask of Him? I hate sickness, and I've got news (Good news), God hates it as well. Sickness does not glorify God. People being miraculously healed by the power and the Love and compassion of God causes God to be Glorified: Matthew 9:1-8:"...then He said to the paralytic, "Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house." 7 And he arose and departed to his house. 8 Now when the multitudes saw it, THEY MARVELED AND GLORIFIED GOD, who had given such power to men.
Why do you think Jesus rightfully accused the hypocrites of BLASPHEMY (Matt 12) when they attributed the healing and loving power of God to beelzebub. They were witnessing perhaps the clearest, most obvious, unmistakable, manifestation of GOD's power, love, compassion, and attributing it to THE DEVIL. If they blatantly called what the pure and perfect ministry of the Holy Spirit was doing OF THE DEVIL, then how would they ever believe God for anything, much less the (less obvious, less visible) forgiveness of sins and for salvation, for matters concerning the conversion of the unseen, their hearts. That is what BLASPHEMY is, rejecting the work of the Holy Spirit, in whatever form, whatever He is desiring to do in your life and through your life.

As my pastor has said, "God:Good :: Devil:Bad, ... Healing:Good :: Sickness:Bad. Psalm 103:1-5 Sums it up pretty well:

1 Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: 3 WHO FORGIVES ALL YOUR INIQUITIES, WHO HEALS ALL YOUR DISEASES, 4 Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, 5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things, SO THAT YOUR YOUTH IS RENEWED LIKE THE EAGLE'S.

In the prison ministry I have even seen a person instantly healed of a malady through the power of God's Word acted upon in faith since reading this book, and I know that there are many more to come. GOD is GOOD !!

Buy the book and read it again and again. (Especially you Pastors and Ministers) You will never regret it, and I dare say you will not be able to contradict the Truth of God's Word expressed in this book. And why would you want to try anyway, this is GOOD NEWS. Don't listen to the rottenness of the leaven of religion, WHAT DOES GOD WORD SAY ABOUT IT !! HIS WORD IS HIS WILL !! IT SAYS REDEEMED !! Read the WORD !!

This is a classic on the subject. I have read it and used illustrations from it for years. These copies are to share with others. I highly recommend it!

Best book I ever read on healing! Explains why it is God's will to heal! Breaks down the Bible and healing so that anyone can understand!

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST MOST COMPREHENSIVE BOOKS EVERY WRITTEN PROVING THAT GOD STILL HEALS TODAY.HE COVERS THE BIBLICAL GROUNDS TO BELIEF GOD STILL HEALS TODAY, HE CORRECTS THE INCORRECT INFORAMTION THAT GOD DOES NOT HEAL TODAY, AND THEN TELLS YOU HOW TO RECEIVE HEALING.

This is the best book on healing in this century besides the bible. It is down to earth, so we can understand in layman's terms. We bought several copies for our Sunday School Small Group Study.
