What does the Bible say about being made whole in Christ?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that being made whole in Christ involves receiving His righteousness and power to obey God's commandments.
In John 5, Jesus asks a paralyzed man if he wants to be made whole, highlighting the transformative power that He alone can provide. This wholeness is not merely physical; it signifies spiritual restoration through Christ’s righteousness. He fulfills the law’s requirements on behalf of His people, making them holy and complete in Him. Believers are called to respond to this power by coming to Christ, exemplifying that true wholeness is found in aligning one's will with His command, and being spiritually revived.
