Do Jehovah's Witnesses practice faith healing?


Though he did perform those miracles, the focus of Jesus' ministry was not on gathering converts by means of emotional sessions of miracle working. Instead, his primary work was to declare the good news of God's Kingdom, Jesus organized his followers  to become disciple makers, who would teach others about the hope of attaining perfect health under God's Kingdom. -Matthew 28:19, 20. 

Granted, some of Jesus' first-century followers had special gifts of healing, but these were to cease. (1 Corinthians 12:29, 30; 30:8, 13) True Christians today are identified, not by acts of healing, but by the bond of self-sacrificing love. (John 13:35) Modern-day faith healing has not produced a genuine family of Christians from all races and backgrounds who are bound together by such love.

There is, however, a group of Christians who are united by a bond of love so strong that they refuse to harm one another-or anyone else for that matter-even during the fiercest of human conflicts. Who are they?  Jehovah's Witnesses.  Worldwide, they are know by displaying Christlike love. United people of diverse  racial, national, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds is a miracle, so to speak, and is made possible only by God's  holy spirit. Why not attend one of their meetings and see for yourself?
