The call for rebellion—and revelation
The specific statements made by Jesus throughout his healing ministry have become timeless instruction for those who want to practice Christian healing today. There’s also much to learn about Christian healing from the spirit of his work—not just from what he said, but also from the manner in which Jesus spoke and acted. His unselfishness, his unwavering devotion to relieve suffering, his patience and calm in the face of urgent matters are unmatched lessons about living a life devoted to God and filled with compassion for humanity.
But the master Christian healer also knew how and when he needed to rebel.
Nothing in his healing ministry suggests there was resignation to long-standing invalidism or deformity. We find no hints of passivity with common bouts of fever, or timidity when confronting the jarring symptoms of contagious disease.
