Salvation - The Healing of Our Whole Life (4)

John 4:43-5:24 (Related reading - Psalm 51:1-19)
When Jesus brings healing, He brings a wholeness of life, which the Bible calls "salvation." Jesus was not only concerned about the man's physical health. He was also concerned about his spiritual welfare. In John 5:14, Jesus said to the healed man, "See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse befall you." You may enjoy good health, but are you saved? - This is the question which the Gospel keeps on pressing home to our hearts. People often say, "The most important thing is your health." The Gospel says, "The most important thing is your salvation." Are you saved? Do you want to be saved? These are the questions God is asking. He waits for your answer.
