A lot of advertising comes into our house. These advertisements calls children to the toy store and the do-it-yourselfer to the hardware store.
There are people who say: The church should also advertise more.

This healing is a sign that Jesus is saving all of life. When He heals people, He is engaged in the Father’s work of salvation: He will save His people from their sins.
After all, sickness has its roots in sin. The healing through Jesus testifies to His atoning work, which opens a new world for us. Also for you?
Whoever touches Him by faith is healed from their sins. Parents and church council believe that and that is why they are calling young and old to church, to meet Jesus.
