Divine Healing and the Passover

God's grace includes much more than God's forgiveness of our sins. It certainly includes God's gift of miraculous healing. In the annual Passover service, we pay grateful tribute to Jesus Christ (along with God the Father) as Savior and Healer. Christ made a two-fold sacrifice for us. We acknowledge that by partaking of bread (representing Christ's body and bodily suffering) and wine (representing His blood and death by loss of blood). Paul warned against approaching the Passover with "unworthy" attitudes or conduct and "not discerning the Lord's body," adding that "For this reason, many are weak and sick among you and many sleep [have died]" (1 Corinthians 11:29-30). Clearly, it is extremely important that we understand this subject and have monumental gratitude to God "who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases" (Psalm 103:3).
