Jesus’ mission – not to destroy, but to save:
For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives but to save them.
Luke 9:56 (NKJV)
Testimony
Needed Knee Replacement
I had two worn, painful knees. The X-rays showed completely worn-out menisci. A doctor showed me this on the screen. It was so painful to walk that I had to stop and rest after just a hundred meters. If I bent down to pick something up from the floor, I had great difficulty getting back up. The pain started back in 1991 and got worse over the years. Three to four years ago, I decided to call you. It was only a week before I was supposed to be admitted to the hospital for knee replacement. I felt nothing while you prayed. A week later, I was lying on the sofa resting. Suddenly I just knew that my knees had been healed. I stood up and bent down multiple times, which I couldn't do before. All the pain was gone. The next day, I was supposed to be admitted to the hospital for knee replacement. Before the surgery, the doctors took new images of the knees. Afterwards, a doctor said to me: “There is nothing wrong with your knees anymore. You don't need surgery.” I replied, “Jesus has healed me after a man named Svein-Magne Pedersen prayed for me.” The surgery was canceled. After this, I have been for a check-up twice. The knees are just fine.
Hip Deterioration
For ten to fifteen years, I suffered from deterioration in my hips. They discovered this at an X-ray center. It was very painful to walk with such hips. It ached both day and night. I couldn't sleep at night. You have prayed for me several times over the phone without anything happening. But a year ago, something happened. I called you. Again you prayed for me – and I was finally healed! The healing came gradually. Now I have been well for a whole year.
