Miracle Healing Beliefs and the Dangers of Following Them
Miracle Healing Beliefs and the Dangers of Following Them
The Christian faith is based on the idea that Jesus is God. The Bible tells us that Jesus performed miracles to prove His divinity. But many professing Christians don’t actually study the Bible, or look to it as a source of authority. Instead, they follow the teachings and traditions of men. These tendencies make it harder for Christians to reach people and bring them to faith. In light of this, Christians must be aware of the dangers of following their beliefs.
The Christian faith teaches that a human being consists of both a soul and a body. It believes that Jesus came to heal people and raise the dead. In the Bible, healing takes place in private homes and often in the form of miraculous signs. Many people believe that by walking by faith, sickness will not strike them. However, healings aren’t always as simple as that. The Bible describes several examples of people who experienced miracles after becoming Christians.
Christians also believe that the sacraments are particularly effective healing means. According to the Catechism, Jesus healed people throughout his ministry. His healing power is continued in the sacraments, especially the Eucharist, the bread that gives eternal life.
