?Have any healing miracles taken place since the Biblical era?? is the central question of this thesis by theologian and preacher A. J. Gordon.The author expresses curiosity about whether the miracles of the Middle Ages and later can be relied and verified as a continuation of Christ?s spirit in the Christian church. Through deep study and inquiry of the established history, he concludes that the power to heal followers remains with the church ? there was no special era of miracle working; God and His powers remain the same in the modern era, as they have right through human history.Although other scholars assert that miracles are something solely of Christ, the disagreement of A. J. Gordon and others represents a split in theological scholarship. For the author, God?s intervention in the suffering and sickness of His followers his frequent; the will of the Lord however is variable ? He will not prolong the pain of someone whose illness is too great.

How Christ Came to Church is an autobiography by preacher, author and educator Adoniram Judson Gordon.The author seeks to frame his life in his very identity as a man of God, with decades of experience establishing and working for the Christian church. We receive a superb discussion on both the events that defined Gordon's career; the attitude to the church as an institution; the vitality of preaching; and Christ as a crucial thread through all.The religious and theological second part is, owing to its general departure from ordinary biographical narrative, framed as the author's 'dream'. It is here that the author details his ideas of church roles and Jesus in greatest detail. The qualities the physical structure of a church must have, as a temple and place of God, are amply detailed.The third and final part is concerned with the character of A. J. Gordon himself; how he efforted to conform his life and deeds with those of Christ.
