This is an examination of the Divine Healing ministry from Christ's ministry, through the Book of Acts, then the Church Fathers and other historical figures. We examine healing ministries in the period just before the Pentecostal revival, and then the early Pentecostals. Then there is a literature review of the principal writers and practitioners of the Divine healing ministry which examines their methods. Included is a review of one of the principal Cessationist writers, examining his views in relation to the New Testament. At the end there is an Annotated Bibliography of the range of authors connected with the Healing ministry, for further reading.
