dc.description.abstract |
The church’s healing ministry developed rapidly during the
past century, with more and more churches, as well as individuals,
becoming involved in this ministry. The question of
what the key components of a successful healing ministry are
thus arises. The ministries of two Pentecostal pioneers who
were influential in the establishment and further development
of Pentecostalism in South Africa (Lake during the period 1908
to 1912 and Wigglesworth during 1936), the United States and
other parts of the world are studied in this regard. It is clear
from both their actions and their own reflections on the topic
that a divine compassion on the sick was an essential element
in the development of their respective ministries. The article
concludes by emphasising the importance of this aspect in the
training and equipping of those wishing to enter into similar
ministries. |
