If He merely did the former (1), we only received forgiveness. But we remain in the position of sin. We stay as sinners. And we continue to be bound by sin.
But Jesus also did the latter (2), so that we received Righteousness. We were removed from the position of sin. We have become the Righteousness of God. And we are free from sin.
In the same way, Jesus did not just remove sickness from us. He removed us from sickness.
If He merely did the former (1), we only received healing. But we remain in the position of sickness. We continue to get sick and need healing again and again.
But Jesus also did the latter (2), so that we received health. We were removed from the position of sickness. We have become the Healed of God. And we are free from sickness and disease.
The reason why we only experience (1) is because we don't believe (2). When we believe (2), our experience will line up eventually.
