Oral Roberts Dies at 91
The World is mourning the passing of pastor, healer, innovator and religious icon Oral Roberts, who died Tuesday in Newport Beach, California at the age of 91.
Roberts died Tuesday from complications of pneumonia a day after he was hospitalized following a fall at his home in California.
“Oral Roberts was the greatest man of God I’ve ever known,” said Oral’s son, Richard Roberts. “A modern-day apostle of the healing ministry, an author, educator, evangelist, prophet, and innovator, he was the only man of his generation to build a worldwide ministry, an accredited university, and a medical school.”
Roberts founded Oral Roberts University in 1963 and served as the school’s president until 1993.
In May, the Oklahoma Legislature honored Roberts with a resolution honoring his life. He spoke to lawmakers of his mission and his legacy.
“I’ll soon be going home to my heavenly father,” Roberts said. “I look forward to that with great peace and joy. Leaving behind my legacy to bless people.”
Roberts grew up the son of a preacher in southern Oklahoma. Over the years, he took the reigns, taking his ministry to millions of people in tent revivals, healing the sick and saving troubled lives. Eventually, the tents gave way to airwaves — broadcasting on the radio.
Then, in the early 60s, he broke even more ground, building Oral Roberts University in South Tulsa and later built the City of Faith Medical and Research Center, intended to merge prayer and medicine in the healing process.
