Acts chapter 9. Perhaps because of the type of ministry, the teaching ministry that The Way represents we do not spend the amount of time dealing with the healing ministry and its different facets as frequently as you might find among other groups. Because of our teaching ministry we believe that people have to learn to understand the whole bible from genesis to revelation; and in order to understand this there are many different segments, many different facets of knowledge from the bible which have to be taught, learned and understood. Among these of course is this ministry of healing. Now first of all, before we get into this chapter let me just say to you that there is a tremendous difference between praying for the sick and ministering to them. You can pray for the sick any time, anywhere, under any situation; but when you begin to minister to the sick it takes on an entirely different biblical aspect. For in the ministry of healing, in the ministry of healing you have to operate the manifestations of the spirit. And in the category of the manifestations of the spirit there are only nine manifestations: speaking in tongues, interpretation of tongues and prophecy, word of knowledge, word of wisdom and discerning of what? Spirits. Faith, miracles and healing. All nine of these manifestations must be an operation in every believer if he is going to minister healing according to the revelation of God's Word.Now before we get into the healing teaching of this particular night I would like to read the opening part of this particular chapter 9 because we're going to here read about a man whose name was Saul. Saul was his Hebrew name. Paul was his Greek name. This man was a real persecutor of the Christians. He hated the Christians spiritually speaking, he disliked them, he thought they were absolutely wrong about everything they believed. And yet God saved him. I believe that sense-knowledge-wise, no one would ever have dreamed that the apostle Paul; who was, who he was to become; that Saul would ever become the Apostle Paul. I doubt very much if any of us would have given him a front seat in our church. We perhaps would have said he's hopeless, God can't help him. But this is one reason I want to read the record, because God did help him. And there is no man living, there is no woman living whom God cannot help, whose need cannot be met by God Almighty. And when he meets that need he can take the life of a man or a woman and turn it upside down, which is right side up, and make them effervesce and glow with the power of God. Such a man was Saul. A man who was worthless in one sense but when he got saved, born-again of God's Spirit, filled with the holy spirit, he became the greatest mouthpiece for God that the world has ever had. [Acts 9:1,2] And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lorhd, went unto the high priest,[2] And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.Before we read the third verse let me just say that the followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, the followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, were called followers of The Way before they were called Christians. They were called Christians in Antioch of Syria first, but long before they were called Christians they were called followers of The Way. And this is why he desired letters in Damascus of the high priest that if any were found who were followers of this Way whether they be men or women he might bring them unto Jerusalem.Verse 3: And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:[4] And he fell to the earth, and he heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?[5] And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.[6] And he trembling...By the way "it's hard for thee to kick against the pricks" is an Orientalism. And in a few weeks our wonderful friend Bishop KC Pillai will be here to teach Orientalism, customs and mannerisms. And he perhaps will not handle this, but he'll handle many things like this in the bible. ~
