Objection: Blood Atonement for Healing Is Unscriptural – Blood Atonement Is Only for Sin

If this were an exam, I’d give the objector partial credit.  Atonement is not made for sickness because sickness is not described as a sin.  No one in the Bible was ever told to repent for being sick, and I certainly won’t tell you to repent for being sick either!  Atonement is for SIN, as the objector states.

What the objector misses here is the EFFECT of atonement for sin!  Over and over throughout Scripture we see that an atonement for sin has the EFFECT of providing healing for the people whose sins were atoned for.

There is no need to duplicate the proof of that here, as the discussion Healing and Atonement covers this quite adequately.  After you read that discussion, no one should ever be able to convince you that healing is not a RESULT of atonement.
