THE EVER-PRESENT HEALING CHRIST

J. BUROUGHS STOKES

One of the most comforting and assuring aspects of the ministry of Christ Jesus was his confident and fearless approach to all problems. A study of his demonstrations of the Christ, Truth, as recorded in the Bible, reveals that he did not consider a discordant condition or problem real. His understanding of the truth enabled him consistently to behold the perfect man. Despite the evidence of the material senses, of lack, sickness, sin, or death, he restored health and harmony to those who earnestly sought the truth.

The reason for Jesus' unparalleled success in healing is undoubtedly contained in his own words as thus recorded in John (5:19): "The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise."

It was this spiritual idea of sonship, or the Christ, which enabled Jesus to perform his mighty works. And he imparted to his disciples the understanding of the Christ, which enabled them also to heal sickness and sin during as well as after his earthly ministry. By example and precept he demonstrated that to the Christ there is no insoluble problem, major or minor, but in reality there are only complete harmony and perfection.
