520 |a The motivation for this study emanated from review of literature which led this researcher to the realization that not much critical study has been done on the theology and practice of divine healing in Christ Apostolic Church (CAC). The CAC which is an important Pentecostal church in Nigeria traces its root partly to Precious Stone Society, a prayer group that began in South-western Nigeria in 1918. This article identified the tenet of faith of the church on divine healing; located the tenet of CAC in the context of the global Pentecostal theology and compared the initial understanding of the concept in CAC with the way it is perceived today by the church members. Primary sources of data for the work comprised the Bible, editions of CAC constitutions, articles written by founders of the Church, questionnaire, and interviews. Secondary sources of data comprised Bible commentaries, books, journal articles, and Internet sources. Historical and phenomenological approaches were adopted for the work. The study found that CAC initially held to divine healing without the use of drugs. It revealed that the belief of the Church on divine healing located the CAC at the center of Pentecostal theology which researchers have identified as healing. The study further discovered that the view of divine healing, with or without the use of drugs, held by the Church today has changed from the one held by the progenitors of the Church which was healing without the use of drugs. The work provides theological relevance on divine healing for the study of Pentecostalism in Nigeria.
