How Jesus Gave Sight to the Man Who Was Born Blind

Why was it so uniquely different from the way He healed the others?

In one of my previous articles, I touched on how God works according to our faith. How His power to heal depends on how far one believes. You may read it here if you haven’t.

God Works as Far as Your Faith Goes

How Jesus healed the sick

Taking excerpts from that article, we find three ways how Jesus healed the sick.

1. By Jesus touching the sick or laying hands on them, they were cleansed or healed (Matthew 8:2–3; 9:18–19, 23–26; 9:27–30)
2. By the sick ones touching Him (or His garment), they were healed (Matthew 9:20–22; Mark 6:56)
3. By simply obeying what Jesus commanded, they were healed (Mathew 8:5–10 & 13; Luke 17:12–14)

Here we read their testimonies from the Gospels.
