Our confidence in Jesus as the good physician comes from the testimonies found in Scripture and the transformative experiences of believers.
Scripture illustrates Jesus as the good physician through numerous accounts of healing and restoration. In the Gospel of Mark, the deaf and mute man illustrates not just a physical healing, but a profound act of divine compassion (Mark 7:33-34). The testimony of faith from individuals who sought out Jesus for help demonstrates the belief that He is the source of ultimate healing for both the body and soul. Furthermore, believers’ personal experiences of transformation, often described as being 'saved by grace,' affirm His power to effect change, leading to the recognition that we genuinely have no other to turn to who can truly help us in our helplessness. Thus, we declare confidently that our Jesus has done all things well.
