"THE WHITE WINGS OF THE HOLY GHOST"

ELEANORA B. CARR

The Gospels record that during Christ Jesus' three years' ministry on earth there were many instances of his casting out devils, evil spirits, unclean spirits, dumb or talking spirits. And when he commanded these evil beliefs to leave poor deluded mortals, they obeyed him. Their occasional resistance to his divine word of authority was always overcome.

Over nineteen hundred years have elapsed since those days, and in the intervening time many theories have been put forward as to what the precise nature of those evil spirits might have been. Jesus himself gave the right answer when he denounced the devil as a liar, having no truth in him and therefore completely unable either to create or to destroy any reality.

Many years have passed since Jesus promised that "the prince of this world" should be cast out. Though ecclesiasticism became more strongly organized than it was when the Son of God walked in Galilee, it was shorn of the demonstration of Truth's healing ministry. Eventually in the darkened world a woman's voice began to be heard, declaring that the time had come when the words and works of Jesus must be understood and practiced.
