Episode 33: The Healing of Human Nature

Series: Week 7 – Theosis / Participation (Transformation)

In this episode of The Encouraging Word, Pastor Eric reflects on how salvation heals human nature itself. Sin does not only create guilt — it wounds the human person at the deepest level.

Through the incarnation, life, death, and resurrection of Christ, human nature is restored, renewed, and healed. Redemption reaches beyond behavior into the very structure of our being.

Salvation is not merely forgiveness of past failure — it is the healing of what has been broken within us.

Isaiah 53:5
