Hall developed several teachings, related to fasting and healing that impacted many of his contemporaries. He believed in a "body-felt salvation," an early 20th century mid-western term for physical healing, wherein the fire of the Holy Spirit was fully applied to a person in a spiritual sense, would by faith protect the individual from all sickness, and even exhaustion through prayer and fasting as many Christians have claimed. He also claimed that those who fully experience salvation could be free from body odor through long term fasting.
Hall also taught that Christians can raise the dead based on actual medical reports, testimonies, and scriptural teaching.
