John 5: 1-18
The Bible tells us that there was a man who had been born lame from birth and had adapted to that lifestyle for many years, since, every day, the village would sit in front of the temple asking for alms. However, history tells us that God worked a miracle in him through his servants: John and Peter.
That is, Peter and John brought healing and liberation to a man who was in physical slavery.
It is also important to remember that this miracle did not come only in a physical way, but also that God worked in it spiritually, because more than physical need was the need of the soul.
Jesus brings liberation to the oppressed
So after the miracle they announced to everyone the message of one who is able to restore man in all aspects of his life. Jesus has the power to restore the body to the mind and spirit of all who believe in Him.
The promise of health applies equally to all our needs.
There is no need to harbor feelings of fear, loneliness, guilt or depression in the heart.
Christ suffered all this on the cross for us.
Faith in the name of Jesus can bring us complete liberation, just as it happened with the lame who sat by the door of the temple.
The Church of the Lord must understand the faith according to what is revealed in the Bible directly from the One who is the Author and Finisher of our faith. Faith is trust and obedience to the Word of God despite the circumstances and consequences.
