During one our teaching and prayer meetings, a prostitute who was dying of cancer was hauled to our mass meeting in a wheelbarrow.
Some women found her languishing on a straw mat on the ground of her adobe hut where she had been
abandoned to die.When they told her about our meetings and offered to take her there, she thought there was
no hope for her abused and wasted life. Born into a Catholic family, she had tried to live according to the rules of her religion. But in spite of her best efforts, the sense of her utter failure plunged her into despair and degraded living. Having spent years in prostitution,
she felt remorse, guilt and shame.The ladies convinced her of what the sacred scripture says:
God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world: but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:17
They placed pillows on the wheelbarrow and brought her to our meeting. Her emaciated body resembled a
sallow skin-covered skeleton, except for her swollen cancer-ridden abdomen.
Lying there under the open sky, she listened to the teaching and she learned how one can be
transformed by receiving the Life of the Creator by faith.
The subject for the lesson that night was the love and compassion of Jesus Christ. We explained that after His crucifixion, the body of Christ was placed in a sepulcher where it remained for three days. Then the Omnipotent Father raised him form the dead.
We emphasized the fact that His Resurrection Life can now
change our nature and engender in us a new person; that it
heals our diseases and regenerates us spiritually, mentally and physically -NOW. We stressed the Bible promise: He forgives all of our iniquities; He heals all of our diseases. Psalm 103:3
When we finished the public teaching and led the multitude in a prayer to receive the gift of salvation from the Lord, that poor woman realized the
He loved her enough to forgive her and to impart His new Life to her.That dear woman received the glorious joy of pardon and forgiveness.
New Miracle Life permeated her old nature. She was regenerated by the Life and Spirit of the Sovereign Lord.
Lying in that wheelbarrow, weeping for joy and thanking God for his peace, she looked up at her friends,
reached out her bony arms and was pulled to her feet-she had not stood for weeks.
As they rejoiced together, the woman was so full of joy and true peace that she forgot about her cancer. She suddenly realized that the
large abdominal tumor had disappeared and that
her legs and arms had become strong. She was not only purged of her sins, but she was miraculously healed. She had experienced New Miracle Life now.
She
pressed through the multitude, and came to our platform. She stood there weeping, with her arms raised toward heaven, and
her upturned face looked like an angel.Her entire life-style was changed. the sacred text of the Holy Scriptures tells us what happens when one recieves the New Miracle Life. it says,
Old things pass away; behold all things become new. 2 Cor 5:17
That dear old woman began attending meetings where other believers gathered to worship the Lord, and she became a witness for Christ.
As she increased in her knowledge of the Lord and as she grew in her faith, she consecrated her life to helping other people to know about Christ's divine love.
What that woman received from god is the Miracle Life that Jesus Christ came to share with each person who receives Him by faith.
