Does God heal?
This is an age-old question.
The miracles of Jesus have been the battleground of the centuries.
Millions declare that God does heal the sick. Millions scorn the assertion.
"Go into all the world, and proclaim the Gospel," said Jesus.
"And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues... they shall lay hands of the sick, and they shall recover" (Mark 16:17-18).The Bible says that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13:8). If His gospel was true then, it is true now.
His disciples healed the sick then (Luke 10). His disciples on the Christians in Jerusalem 2,000 years ago. This power is still available. Healings are just as certain in Sacramento [or Saskatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba, BC] today as they were in Judea then.
It is said that many of those who would bring the joyful message of salvation and healing to the public have obscured the vision and darkened the simple sweet truths with a blare of trumpets, and the din of sensationalism. The public has listened, pondered and in many cases turned away disgusted.
However, truth is unalterable. God does heal today. Christ healed all that came to Him 2,000 years ago. He is still willing to heal all who come asking.
He is the same yesterday, today forever.
