Quotes from Roger Sapp

Since it is not the believer who actually heals but Christ, then one healing or miracle is actually no more difficult than another.

Christ is saving, healing and delivering people. The devil is killing, robbing and destroying people. It is just that simple.

I began to discover that my healing theology of twenty years was not really based on Scripture, but on my erratic healing experiences and what others had taught from their erratic experiences. Because my experiences had matched theirs, I accepted what I heard as being the truth, without serious examination and comparison with Scripture.

There is no incompleteness in the kingdom of God on God's side of the equation. Christ work is finished and it is perfect. Christ demonstrates repeatedly that the kingdom present in this age is completely adequate to heal all who come to Him in child-like faith.

In many churches today, caution is much more valued in believers than boldness for Christ. Caution in matters of healing and miracles is often seen as wise and boldness is seen as shallow and presumptive. Of course, Christ has nothing to say about presumption, and has given a great deal of encouragement for bold faith.

Sickness is not listed among the blessings of God anywhere in Scripture. Convoluted reasoning, justified by experiences of failing to heal or be healed is used to teach that sickness and injuries are blessings.

Christ and His disciples in the New Testament treat sickness just like they do demons.

The Holy Spirit uses real people with all their flaws, failures and forgiven sins.

Then Jesus therefore said to them plainly, "Lazarus is dead, and I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe; but let us go to him."…So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days. Christ revealed that the disciples should have their faith strengthened by these events.
