Scripture Fulfilled (7 of 21)
Series: Jesus Our Savior - Gospel of Luke
Stephen Whitney
Luke 4:14-21
Few people had ever hear of fashion model Marla Hanson before June 1986. She wash distinguished mostly by her height - 5 feet
4 inches, too short for most agencies, her age - 24 which was a bit
too old, and her classically beautiful face.
On June 5th she was attacked by a man with a razor and her face was cut so badly that she needed more than 100 stitches - and her photo was suddenly on the front pages of the New York tabloids.

Physical - abuse, illness, lingering problem, sickness, surgery.
Emotional - control, manipulation, rejection.
Spiritual - sinful habit, disobedience, false teaching.

Jesus came to heal us from the scars we experience in life.
Accepting his healing is the result of receiving forgiveness for sin.
True healing begins spiritually when we are made right with Christ
