At a church-planting conference in Madhya Pradesh state, Rev. Amos, a personal friend, told of the following events: a church-planting team visited a village without a Christian church. As usual, they asked whether there was a sick person in the village for whom they could pray. The villagers led them to a hut in which a family lived, with a severely disfigured five-month-old baby: it had two heads and two sexes, both male and female. The parents and other villagers looked on in suspense to see what the Christians would do. In faith, one of the church-planters laid hands on the child and prayed to Jesus for a miracle. As she prayed, the two heads became one! After further prayer, the child was left with only one sex: a girl. The village's first church was planted as a result of the miracle.
Erich Reber's comment: "When I heard Rev. Amos' report, and in my mind was
still questioning whether this miracle really occurred, God spoke to me
very clearly. He showed me that the church in Switzerland also has several
heads. Beside Jesus Christ, there are others: materialism, humanism,
rationalism, mammon, worldly heads and so on. The identity of the church
is also not clearly visible; people looking at the church from the outside
can't tell what it is. Just as the woman laid her hands on the sick child,
God is initiating a movement consisting of countless women, men and
children, who are praying that Jesus will be restored as the only head,
and the identity of the church become visible."
