| “God has made provision that physical healing would be a ministry of His Church, and that gifts of healings would operate along with faith. Healing is so common in the ministry of Jesus and in that of the Apostles, that a church without gifts of “cures” would seem far removed from the Bible pattern. In addition to gifts of healings, all elders (pastors) are to be ready to anoint with oil all the sick who call for them, and to pray over them the prayer of faith; God has promised to raise up the sick and to forgive their sins (James 5:14-16).” http://biblewebapp.com/ http://www.ccel.org 3 3 Foundations of Pentecostal Theology, Guy P. Duffield/ N. M. Van Cleave, 1987

What is a miracle? “An event or action that apparently contradicts known scientific laws and is hence thought to be due to supernatural causes, especially to an act of God.” 4 4 Webster’s New World Dictionary of the American Language, 1976 |
“I believe that one of the biggest reasons that the body of Christ hasn't made a greater impact on our generation today is because of our failure to operate in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Without a doubt, Jesus and the first apostles used the gifts like a bell, calling men to their message and confirming that God was truly the One speaking through them.” 5 5 How to Flow in the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, Andrew Womack, 2011

“Belief in miracles, far from depending on an ignorance of the laws of nature, is only possible in so far as those laws are known. We have already seen that if you begin ruling out the supernatural you will perceive no miracles. We must now add that you will equally perceive no miracles until you believe that nature works according to regular laws. If you have not yet noticed that the sun always rises in the East you will see nothing miraculous about his rising one morning in the West.” 6 6 The Supernatural Power of a Transformed Mind, Bill Johnson, Destiny Image, Shippensburg, p. 34, 2005

"One of the major functions of miracles and supernatural living is to offer immediate, irrefutable proof of what God wants to happen on earth. It demonstrates who God is by showing what His reality looks like".“Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature.” 7 7 www.thinkexist.com, Augustine, Philosopher and Theologian, 354-430 A.D. |
1 Corinthians 2:3-5 MESSAGE I was unsure of how to go about this, and felt totally inadequate—I was scared to death, if you want the truth of it—and so nothing I said could have impressed you or anyone else. But the Message came through anyway. God’s Spirit and God’s power did it, which made it clear that your life of faith is a response to God’s power, not to some fancy mental or emotional footwork by me or anyone else.

1–5 And as for myself, having come to you, brethren, I came, not having my message dominated by a transcendent rhetorical display or by philosophical subtlety when I was announcing to you the testimony of God, for, after weighing the issues, I decided not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and this very One as crucified. And as for myself, when I faced you, I fell into a state of weakness and fear and much trembling. And my message and my preaching were not couched inspecious words of philosophy but were dependent for their efficacy upon a demonstration of the Spirit and of power, in order that your faith should not be resting in human philosophy but in God’s power.<{{{>< <{{{><

Would you mind if I link to a document on this site? I want to provide my readers with links to things that pastor Dale and the team of authors at New Song reference in the footnotes of the Disciples Handbook.
