Q. What does “By His stripes we are healed” in Isaiah 53:5 mean? A. This is perhaps the most famous verse for Word of Faith preachers to claim as an all-encompassing promise to the sick. They use it in the sense that people should be physically healed right now on earth. An improper interpretation and understanding of this passage is devastating to millions of people who think something is wrong with their faith because they aren’t healed as promised.
