I believe in miracles:
Let's start from the beginning in with God:
Man has a twofold nature about him, he is both a material and a spiritual being. I want you to see that both natures were affected equally by the fall of the first man Adam. Now notice that his physical body is exposed to disease while his soul is corrupted by sin.
God's plan of redemption had to include complete redemption for both natures. In other words God provided restoration of the physical as well as the renovation of spiritual life. The redeemer appears among men with his hands stretched out to our misery and need, offering both salvation and healing.
Can you see how that God offers himself to us as a Saviour to the very end, his indwelling spirit is the life of our spirit. His resurrection body is the life of our mortal flesh. So far this should be very easy to understand. Jesus begins his ministry by healing all that has need of healing, but he closes it by making on the Cross a full atonement for our sins, and we must look to the other side of the open tomb as he passes into heaven, leaving a double commission for ''all the world '' and " all the days even unto the end of the world."
He said go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature . He that believeth and is baptized he shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe. In my name they shall cast out devils, they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. This was "the faith once delivered unto the saints.
