Wistfully longing it weren't so

some questions

,

let's assume that we aren't whole. We are creatures that are finite and temporally and historically situated. We are imperfect and fallible because we are incomplete. And we know that we are in a dying process, that is with each passing day we are moving towards death.

The word heal means to be whole. Is this possible? Can we ever be healed? And let's not confuse heal with cure. There may not be a cure but many people have been healed in the process of dying.

Salvation is the promise to humanity of being made whole, of being and feeling fulfilled. How and when does this happen? Can it happen before we die?
