About this sermon
Throughout history, epilepsy was misunderstood, often thought to be caused by gods, spirits, or even contagious omens. Some ancient treatments were downright bizarre. From drinking gladiator blood to wearing hyena skin or eating vulture brains! 🤯 In this video, we explore these strange historical “cures” and how Matthew 4:24 and Matthew 17 show Jesus’ healing power in a time when epilepsy was feared and mistreated. Unlike the desperate and often brutal methods of ancient physicians, Jesus simply healed the afflicted.
