Was Christ Actually Raised From The Dead? of the gospel gave great prominence to the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Conclusion to the 500 year historical overview: ... There is no known biological cause of any mental illness because insanity is not a disease, but a conscious moral choice. The idea of "curing" mental illness is as absurd as the idea of curing laziness, chronic lying, or the desire to do evil. Cures affect the body, information affects the will. You do nor cure a person of who wills to do wrong, you convert them to repentance and obedience to Christ. Just as most individuals reject the call of Christ to be baptized for the remission of their sins, so too the insane reject the call to change their behaviour. When church ministers preach the gospel to sinners, most do not will to change their behaviours. But faith comes by reading the word of God which is capable of bringing about changes in will that are remarkable, dramatic and stunning.
