It is plain from the gospels that Christ triumphantly met and overcame every form of evil from which men suffered. He cast out evils and healed all manner of sickness and disease, and in consequence his teaching was such as none ever taught. It was with authority which none could dispute. And not only so.

The challenge which meets us to-day is to justify our claim to be true representatives of Christ and authoritative preachers of his gospel. And at once it is asked why the demonstration of the truth of our gospel is not with the same power as at first. Why do not we heal the sick in Christ's name as did the early church? It is to find an answer to that question that I ventured to suggest this conference to-day.
