Abstract
"As fellow Pentecostals, we are here to look at the history of divine healing from a Pentecostal/Charismatic perspective and to learn whatever lessons we can gather from both the strengths and weaknesses of the tradition. Just who are “Pentecostal/Charismatics” anyway? Following the great Catholic scholar, Kilian McDonnell, my broadest definition would be “those Christians who stress the baptism in the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit toward the proclamation that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Glory of God the Father.” This would include all Christians who have been called “Classical Pentecostals,” (Assemblies of God, Church of God in Christ, Pentecostal Holiness Church, Church of God, etc.), and both Protestant and Catholic Charismatics.” All together they accounted for over 500,000, 000 members in 1998 and are by far the second largest family of Christians in the world after the Roman Catholic Church."
