Message
One of the consequences of the fall of man was the entrance of evil into the world. That included suffering, afflictions, sicknesses, diseases, disabilities and death. Mankind had been plagued by all kinds of physical, mental, and psychological infirmities since then. All through the ages, man had sought various means to mitigate the impact of these afflictions. Medical science attempts to provide relief from diseases and sufferings. However, there are limitations to the effectiveness of medical science as some diseases are chronic and incurable.
Jesus Christ came to undo the works of the devil among men. His ministry involved forgiveness of sins, healing the sick, delivering the oppressed and teaching the ways of the kingdom. In His days on earth, He healed all manner of sicknesses including those deemed incurable. He continues to perform such miracles today through the ministry of the saints and ministers of the gospel. Many who had struggled with certain chronic and debilitating diseases had received their perfect healing during the gospel crusades. Healings are real because Jesus is alive. Do you believe in miracles? I do.
