The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In the fourth part of his discourse, Steve Gregg explores the topic of healing and the different means through which God may heal people, including medical and natural means. He emphasizes that loving Jesus is shown through obedience to His commandments, and those who keep His commandments are promised the presence and help of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is described as the Spirit of Truth, given by Jesus to help His followers in His absence, and only received by those who belong to Jesus. Gregg concludes that inward revelation of Christ through obeying His commandments enables believers to know God and manifest Him in their lives.
