"THE FATHER...DOETH THE WORKS"

John J. Selover

The meek but mighty Nazarene, Christ Jesus, did not attribute his works to mere personal genius. His healing accomplishments were in demonstration of the presence of God, who, the Psalmist says (Ps. 103:3), "healeth all thy diseases."

Jesus knew his true nature as God's Son. He knew his oneness or inseparable relationship with his Father-Mother God. He said (John 14:10), "Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works."

The difference between the Master and his followers was this: he was always conscious of his unity with God, while others struggled somewhat with the general belief that God and His power were apart from them. Those of Jesus' followers who accomplished healing works were those who caught a clear glimpse of God's ever-presence.
