W17, 'just in case you are still uncertain what we are healed from' it is sickness as evident in the very sentence Isiah writes. Matthew [Matt. 8:17] interprets the passage for us. Jesus "healed all who were sick, in order that what was spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled, 'He Himself tool our infirmaties and careried away our diseases.'"

I NEVER said Jesus doesn't still heal! I'm just not going to allow sloppy interpretation to back that fact up. It is exceptionally sloppy to quote that passage in order to buttress the fact of healing. To say it supports physical healing is being willingly ignorant, and ignoring Peter's correct interpretation, not matter what the Faith teachers teach.

To say that II Peter EXCLUDES physical healing is exceptionally sloppy theology. Isaiah 53 backs it up as does Matthew 8:17.

BTW, the case for healing does not rest on II Peter 2:24 or any one single verse. It is a Biblical truth found throughout the Bible and throughout God's dealings with man.
