A quote: C.S. Lewis on divine healing

[JimB]

In response to Mrs. Johnson question on miraculous healing, C.S. Lewis said:

"Yes, I do believe people are still healed by miracles by faith: but of course whether this has happened i

​

n any one particular case, is not so easy to find out.” ~C.S. Lewis [Collected Letters]​

C S Lewis said what you quoted he said, before God TV and Todd Bentley (roll eyes), before twitter and facebook (wink wink), before text messaging and Christian forums

Surely someone has been healed by miracles of faith after all both are included in the list of nine spiritual gifts that have not gone away as some would believe.

The body of Christ still has tongues and interpretation of tongues and prophecy and discernment, Word of knowledge and Word of wisdom for six of the nine gifts of the Spirit.

Why not healing, faith and miracles rounding out the other three for a total of nine?

IMO there are many more spiritual gracelets (I prefer that word to 'gifts') than nine. And I think miraculous healing, et.al., happens all the time--a least they do in our neck of the woods. Frankly, I consider all healing a miracle. Maybe I should have said 'supernatural' healing.
