Verse set: Healing Scriptures Volume 5.08: Paul Shakes Off the Viper§↻

Description

It goes without saying that you can hardly throw a stone in both the OT and NT without hitting someone getting healed by God. Healing was not only an integral part of God’s covenant with Israel, but it is likewise an integral part of the kingdom of God message - the same kingdom we live in today - which Jesus preached during his ministry. As such, the purpose of these volumes is to show that God is not only a God who healed, but that he is a God who wants to heal those who are willing to take hold of it by faith today (Mal 3:6, Acts 10:34-35).

The Healings in Acts are organized as such:

Volume 5.01: Peter Heals the Crippled Beggar (Acts 3:1-16)

Volume 5.02: Peter's Shadow and the Sick of Jerusalem (Acts 5:12-16)

Volume 5.03: Ananias Heals Saul's Blindness (Acts 9:1-18)

Volume 5.04: Peter Heals the Paralytic Aeneas (Acts 9:32-35)

Volume 5.05: Peter Raises Tabitha from the Dead (Acts 9:36-41)

Volume 5.06: Paul Heals a Crippled Man (Acts 14:8-10)

Volume 5.07: Paul's Handkerchiefs and the Multitudes (Acts 19:8-12)

Volume 5.08: Paul Shakes Off the Viper (Acts 28:3-6)

Volume 5.09: Paul Heal's the Father of Publius (Acts 28:7-9)

Acts

28 3 When Paul had gathered a bundle of brushwood and was putting it on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened itself on his hand.
4 When the local people saw the creature hanging from Paul's hand, they said to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer! Although he has escaped from the sea, Justice herself has not allowed him to live!"
5 However, Paul shook the creature off into the fire and suffered no harm.
6 But they were expecting that he was going to swell up or suddenly drop dead. So after they had waited a long time and had seen nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god.
