Does Jesus Still Heal Today? Part 3
Luke 5:17 gives a striking picture: the power of the Lord was present for Jesus to heal. What does that reveal about God’s presence, compassion, and Kingdom?
Healing reveals the heart and presence of God.
Brian Fenimore explores Luke 5:17 as a foundation for understanding healing ministry. Jesus did not treat healing as spectacle; His ministry revealed the Father’s heart and the nearness of God’s Kingdom.
