9 healing DETERMINANTS

 

1 John 3:1

King James Version

3 Behold, 

what manner of love 

the Father hath bestowed upon us, 

that we should be called the sons of God: 

therefore the world knoweth us not, 

because it knew him not.


What makes JESUS heal us?

Are there any conditions?

Or prerequisites?

I turn to a previous article we wrote.

And find Matthew's gospel enlightening.

I found man gets healed through:
