“I profess the Lord Jesus Christ to be my Savior, the Son of the Heavenly Father,
God….who is the one and only true Almighty God, and the Great Physician, who has the
power to will miraculous healing & place gifted earthly physicians in place to perform the
procedure(s) necessary to sustain life”

Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
