Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior; divine, human healer and redeemer
The Zion Christian Church affirms that Jesus Christ is fully divine and fully human. He is the Lord and Savior of humanity, the one through whom God works healing, redemption, and transformation. Jesus' divine nature is expressed through his healing ministry and his power over evil. His role as healer and redeemer is particularly emphasized in ZCC theology and practice.
