Summary: Eye Opening! Life Transforming!
Review: Amazing amazing book!
Being brought up as a 'Fundamentalist', I often struggled with my faith since I was never really taught what God's will was... so how then could I exercise faith? This book has changed everything! It goes to great lengths to prove that it IS God's will to heal, and also helps to build the faith in the reader required to receive divine healing. I've experienced some huge paradigm shifts in the way I view God, and my faith in Christ has grown tremendously! I'm converted!!

Summary: Pentecostal Classic on Healing
Review: F.F. Bosworth is best remembered for his stand against the Assemblies of God and the teaching of the initial, physical evidence (which Bosworth felt was not biblical) and for this classic book on healing. Despite Bosworth's departure from the Assemblies of God in those early days into the Christian & Missionary Alliance, Bosworth remained firmly committed to the doctrine of divine healing in the atonement of Christ. His views, along with A.B. Simpson's, kept the CMA full of fire.
The book deals with, as the title implies, the healing work of Christ. Bosworth focuses on the promises of God in the Bible for divine healing, the healing ministry of both Jesus and His apostles, and the need for continued healing ministry today. While I found the work dated somewhat, the book overall captures the passion the early Pentecostals had for the presence of God in their daily lives.
Overall, a good book to read for both Pentecostals and non-Pentecsotals. Bosworth's work is a classic and he is still read and taught in many Pentecostal churches and Bible colleges. While I didn't agree fully with his views, I do believe Bosworth touches a nerve we need touched and that is simply: we need God's power to be manifested in the Church again.

Summary: A Timely and Timeless Classic on Healing!
Review: Faith is not believing God can but that He will.This book has helped many receive their healing by acting on the truth found within its pages. One of the biggest truths that I took away was the fact that you cannot have faith for something if you do not know God's will on the matter. Without a knowledge of God's will concerning healing or any other matter, you cannot have confidence. Remember, faith is confidence and trust. These two things will never be found where you are ignorant of God's will! Bosworth goes into great lengths to get this point across and for good reason: it makes the difference as to whether you receive or not. Bosworth goes into lengthy detail about the Old Testament types and shadows showing conclusively that God provided for our bodily healing through His death, burial and resurrection, and that it is His will for us. Some believe in a what I'll call a "No-Fault" religion. They simply pray for healing and if God says "yes" on that particular day, then fine--the prayer is answered. And if not, Cay sera sera. Either way, it is not the fault of the person praying. No, this is wrong. Whether or not your prayers are answered depend a whole lot more on you than on God. And Bosworth goes into detail about this subject as well. If you or a loved one is in need of healing and you need to know whether or not God wants you well, then get this book! It could make a difference--between your being healed or your continuing in suffering.

Summary: Healing: Once and For All
Review: FF Bosworth has written the definitive work on God's healing power and His will to heal all believers. If anyone has ever doubted God's will to heal everyone who asks, this is the book to read.
Relying solely on the Word of God, Bosworth clearly makes the case for divine healing. Page after page, the evidence mounts until the reader, at some point, relents under the weight of that evidence and says. "I believe!" When Christ suffered and died on the cross, He bought our salvation and our healing, once and for all.
If Smith Wigglesworth were alive and read this text, he would surely exclaim, "Amen!" At any rate, I'm glad Kenneth E. Hagin did read Christ the Healer and pointed me to it.
There are some extras in this edition: 22 Reasons Why Some People Aren't Healed, Testimonies, and Thirty-One Questions about divine healing.
This is more than Christian classic - it is a field manual for daily devotions, warfare and victory.

Summary: Christ the Healer
Review: For over twenty years I have studied and taught on the subject of Biblical healing. In the Spring of 1980 I discovered a 1924 edition of this book. In the ensuing years I have collected more than 60 books on healing and most are excellent. However, I believe Fred Bosworth's logic and scholarship make this the best book on the subject now in print. I have given away many copies through the years. I am curious: has it been in print all through the years?

Summary: Soundest Advocacy for Healing Through Faith in Jesus
Review: Have you ever sought a scripturally sound Minister of the Gospel, preaching divine healing just as it is taught in the pages of the Bible? Well, here it is! You won't find a better exposition as to the will and desire of God for your life, your faith and your health. Fred Francis Bosworth was first a member of the church of John Alexander Dowie. When Charles F. Parham brought the Pentecostal message to Zion City one day of September 1906, he was baptized on the selfsame evening. Early on persecuted for his pentecostal beliefs, Bosworth fled to Dallas where the church he founded quickly rose to preeminence and became the centre of a revival. While pastor to that church, his befriending of blacks and his holding racially-mixed meetings did cause him to suffer persecution. He joined the Assemblies of God in 1914 but resigned four years later due to a controversy concerning the "initial evidence" (he expressed the belief that the gift of tongues was only one of many possible indications as to a person being baptized in the Spirit). After World-War I, Bosworth came to be both the initiator and spearhead of revivals across the United States, through itinerant campaigns and through radio evangelism, of which he was a pioneer. After World-War II and a life of semiretirement, he again took an active part in the post-war revivals up to the late fifties, being over eighty years old. If the various abuses and excesses that have persevered among healing campaigns have thrown some discredit in your mind, your apprehensions will vanish after reading this scripturally sound book. You will have no doubt as to God's intention and willingness for your life, your faith and your health. This book is an enduring testimony to the love of God and the Gospel of the Lord Jesus, his ever being present with his people, yesterday, today and forever.

Summary: The Healing Word
Review: The best thing to do if sickness should strike is fill up with the Word and every faith building book out there! this is the classic and a must. Also, I'd get my foundation strong with a lot of Derek prince's teachings. I like a book by a pastor out in Georgia named Henry Wright. "A More Excellent Way" really dives into the spiritual roots of disease. They also teach courses. Also invest in any CD of healing scriptures and let them play all night. Helps me sleep! Get everyone you know to pray for you. Pray for yourself. Talk to God. Bend His ear.
