| Sumario: | From its beginnings ‘Healing in the Atonement’ has been one of the key platforms from which the Pentecostal movement has branded itself. Disease and suffering were tagged as consequences of the Fall and in need of redemption not unlike the soul. Specifically, this presentation will explain why traditional constructions of ‘healing in the atonement’ gained immediate traction with Pentecostalism; demonstrate that contemporary applications of healing in the atonement frequently issue in violence to the sick, injured or diseased; argue that ‘healing in the atonement’ is crippled by a deficient understanding of creation and in particular human finiteness as it relates to sickness and/or death; and examine James K.A. Smith’s ‘Logic of Incarnation’ to see if there is a constructive path here to formulate a theology of healing that remains faithful to Scripture and can maybe even be friendly to the more traditional atonement theories of healing. |
