The
entire context of Acts 3 and 4 is the healing of the lame man at the Temple
Gate. This is the occasion of Peter’s declaration that his level of power or
holiness had nothing to do with it.
His actions, however,
demonstrated that using Jesus’ name for healing had everything to do with the
healing of this helpless man.
One verse in these two chapters,
Acts 4:12, contains a hidden key to healing by faith. This key is hidden because
of the words translated by our English words salvation and saved.
You see the translators gave us
this:
Acts 4:12
12 Neither is there
SALVATION in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among
men, whereby we must be SAVED. (KJV)
They should have given us this:
Acts 4:12
12 Neither is there
HEALING in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men,
whereby we must be HEALED. (KJV)
Why is this? You see the Greek
word for saved and salvation is also one of the Greek words for
healed. In other words, saved and healed are translations of
the same basic Greek root.
Now, this Greek root is used here
in this verse. In this context, however, this Greek root has nothing to do with
the salvation of the soul.
This context pertains to the
healing of the lame man at the Temple Gate. Read it for yourself and see.
The plan, method, necessity or even a question of salvation never occurs
in this context.
Therefore, Acts 4:12 above would
be more in line with the facts of the context of these two chapters if the verse
had read thus: “Neither is there HEALING in any other: for there is none other
name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be HEALED.”
In other words, God gave no name
for our healing except the name of Jesus. When our “arm of the flesh” has
failed, the name of Jesus will work because that is the name God left us for our
healing from the start.
Thank God for medical science.
They are God’s gift to us. Nevertheless, those times they can’t come through for
us, we still have the all powerful name of Jesus.
Mark it well. There is no other
name for healing. This is God’s doing. There is no other name for healing.
Truly, “neither is there healing in any other: for there is none other name
under heaven given among men, whereby we must be healed.”
