The report of a sermon on spiritual healing, contained in your issue of August 9, has just come to my attention; and I respectfully submit the following as of interest to your readers, and as bearing on some of the issues raised by the evangelist.

One does not have to go beyond the borders of our own state to find ministers of the gospel and others who defend spiritual healing, an important instance of this being the utterance of the presiding elder of the North Texas Conference of the Methodist church, as reported in a Dallas newspaper early in this present year. This elder said, in part: "Let the church heal the people who are sick. . . . Feed the hungry, educate the masses, heal the sick, and give salvation to people, and then the church will have assumed the work of God."

As reported in the Texarkana Gazette on August 26, this year, a clergyman of that city said: "Healing by faith is a fact that the world cannot get away from if the Bible is to be accepted at face value—and there is no other way to accept it."
