•According to his biography, Kenneth Hagin was born with a serious heart condition and what was believed to be an incurable blood disease. At age 15, he became paralyzed and bedridden — seemingly with no hope of walking again. After his conversion to Christianity and coming to faith, he experienced a dramatic healing: Hagin described being raised from his deathbed and – over time – restored to full health and mobility. For many believers, his story is seen as a concrete demonstration of the redemptive power of Jesus’ sacrifice — the ‘blood of Jesus’ bringing physical healing, life, and restoration even when circumstances looked impossible.
