Publisher's Synopsis
Jesus shed His blood for so much more than empty, powerless religion. False religion and the sacrosanct traditions of men have, for nearly 1700 years, reduced the gospel to a form of godliness that denies any real power. At the birth of Christianity, Jesus and the Apostles worked many mighty signs and wonders that the world could not deny. Comparing Christianity today to the faith of the early Christians, it's clear that we're lacking power. This lack is due to the refusal of a sleeping church to acknowledge and obey the whole counsel of God. Christ could rightly say of mainstream Christianity, "Why do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord, ' but don't do what I say?" Jesus commanded His disciples to heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, and cast out demons. He paid for such miracles at the cross and the whipping post of His suffering.
The truths in this book will shake you to the core and challenge beliefs that have been left unquestioned for centuries. The truths herein are simple, straightforward, and free of any subjective interpretation. The author focuses solely on presenting the unadulterated and indisputable meaning of Scripture boldly and succinctly, without mention of any personal experience or opinion. With few words, you will find yourself confronted and convicted by the truly biblical standard of the Christian life. Through this book, you will be equipped with the divine knowledge that's necessary to see the power of God flowing through you to heal the sick and set the captive free. In addition, the most commonly asked questions about healing, sickness, suffering and tragedy, and the purpose of the cross are answered with authority. In "Heal the Sick", David Grams exegetically walks readers through the Bible, as to demonstrate, with authority, that it is surely and always God's will for people to be healed of their sicknesses and diseases. The author also writes to intrigue cessationists of all forms, hoping to persuade skeptics and opponents that the Bible teaches, clearly, that miracles and the gifts of the Spirit are for believers today. This book is ideal for students of the Bible who want to know more about divine healing, disciples who want to learn how to heal the sick, and Christians who are either questioning or resisting the doctrine of divine healing.
