<\/div>\n

As we have faced my wife, Elizabeth\u2019s diagnosis, different versions of healing promises have popped up everywhere. We have been given several books that implicitly or explicitly make such claims. I have talked to people who struggle deeply with the fact that God hasn\u2019t healed them yet. Some days, even I feel a nagging doubt in my own heart. Maybe I\u2019m wrong and some theological error or deficiency of faith or undiscovered sin is preventing her cancer from being removed. <\/em>The corrosive influence of such ideas can crush hearts already heavy with sadness. That\u2019s why it is crucial to recognize the truth: While Scripture insists that God can <\/em>heal, it never promises that he will<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there is a deeper issue that lies behind these false promises. It has taken Elizabeth and me a long time to recognize it. An inappropriate hope in God\u2019s healing isn\u2019t just dangerous because it is untrue; it is also dangerous because it can prevent us from finding the real sources of hope that Scripture provides. When healing is where we place our confidence, we can make it our idol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the greatest documents to come out of the Protestant Reformation is the Heidelberg Catechism, a series of questions and answers intended to instruct Christians on the core of their faith. The very first question in this catechism is, \u201cWhat is your only comfort in life and death?\u201d Here is the answer, a bit long but well worth pondering in full:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That I am not my own,
but belong with body and soul,
both in life and in death,
to my faithful Saviour Jesus Christ.
He has fully paid for all my sins
with his precious blood,
and has set me free
from all the power of the devil.
He also preserves me in such a way
that without the will of my heavenly Father
not a hair can fall from my head;
indeed, all things must work together
for my salvation.
Therefore, by his Holy Spirit
he also assures me
of eternal life
and makes me heartily willing and ready
from now on to live for him.[i]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

You will notice that much of what Heidelberg says maps onto the pictures of God we have been exploring in these pages. We see God on the throne, preserving us and working all things for our salvation. God on the cross, suffering for our salvation. God\u2019s presence with us in his Holy Spirit. His victory in the hope of eternal life. All these truths provide us with comfort \u201cin life and in death,\u201d a phrase that includes every stage of life but especially calls to mind the pain of its end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

None of that comfort is dependent on our circumstances. It does not say that God will fix my current situation, or heal my physical maladies, or give me a prosperous and pleasant life. But that isn\u2019t because such hopes are too much for God\u2014it is because they are too small. Our hope rests in God himself. All of his promises are true just as much in our suffering as in our successes. They provide resources for us regardless of our present conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The great danger in seeking healing is that the healing can easily replace God as the object of our hope. He becomes a means to an end; a spiritual treatment regimen we use to get what we really want. By putting our ultimate hope in our circumstances, we have placed it on a shaky foundation. More than that, we are often revealing the ways our hearts are captive to idols. As understandable as it is to desire the end of sorrow or the removal of disease, when we set our ultimate hope on something within this world, of necessity we aren\u2019t fixing it on Jesus. We are worshiping a created thing instead of the Creator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

None of that is meant to say that grief is wrong. There is an appropriate affection we should have for the things of this earth. Loved ones, health, and security are all good, and it is appropriate to weep when they are snatched away. However, they will all ultimately be taken from us, if not now, then later. The Lord alone will endure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the best way to think about healing is as a subset of how C. S. Lewis discusses the idea of hope in general:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAim at Heaven and you will get earth \u2018thrown in\u2019: aim at earth and you will get neither.\u201d[ii] <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Lewis\u2019s point is that we can either fix our hope on God or on something else. Hoping in God doesn\u2019t mean we don\u2019t enjoy good things in this life. God is large enough to include all our desires as creatures, including our desire for healing. We can address our desires to him, and perhaps he will fulfill them in this life, and perhaps he will save the restoration for the age to come. However, when we instead aim at one of those desires, we lose two things at once. We lose God, because we cannot serve two masters (Matthew 6:24). At the same time, we lose the thing we are chasing. Either now or later it will be taken from us, and without God as the foundation, we will be destroyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, hope for healing, and pray for it, but be very careful it doesn\u2019t become what you are hoping in. Aim at the Lord and you will find him, and healing besides, whether in this life or in the resurrection. Aim for the healing, though, and you will find yourself in the end with nothing that endures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
