Jesus, greater than Moses and the Law
In this article, Dr. Roberto Miranda discusses the power of Jesus to heal and restore as demonstrated in the narrative of the paralytic in John 5. He emphasizes the importance of presenting Jesus Christ as the focus of Christianity rather than a religious system or institution, and highlights the superiority of Jesus over the Old Testament system of healing. The article also touches on the doctrine of hell and the invitation to accept Christ for salvation and eternal life.
