Bible Note: Greetings John! There was one man who was raised from the dead, quite publicly. Yet, most people did not believe it. ;-) In fact, most people still do not believe that Jesus rose from the dead. I was a teenager in a little church in my home town. We were having a revival service and a young boy, who was born blind, went up to the altar for prayer. This wasn't some TV preacher at some big event. The people in the church prayed for this young boy and God healed him. Have you never seen God answer prayer? Are we to believe that God only works through doctors and antibiotics? Such answers to prayer have not been an everyday occurrence in my life, but I have seen miracles answers to prayers many times in my life. I have also prayed for a dying son and seen God answer my prayer by taking him home. God heals as He wills, not as we command, but God does still heal. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
