the effect of rnusic-"lght-tone as it has been

the three colors, red, yellow, md blue. The

To TIE Editor t} The TfibHn


CHICAGO, Jan. 25-PIeasc allow me space in
your paper to answer "Presbytc-aE's +" article
on the statement of DR.. Mitchell in reference to
the woman who was healed BY prayer The
Bible asserts that God is the same yesterday,
to-day, and forever. That miracles were per-
formed by Moses and other prophets, and that
our Savior the Lord Jesus Christ performed
them is certain from the teachings Of the Bible.
would refer to one where the father brought
his sou who was possessed OF devil to Christ,
and he healed him. The father told Christ that
he had taken him to His disciples, and they
could not heal him. Christ turned to them and
said, 80 &c OF little faith, if you should say to
that mountain, Be ye removed and east into the
sea it should be donc.n And again: "Whatso-
ever ye ask in My name, believing, 1t shall be
done unto you"
Now, If nc are not taught by this that by
faith we can accomplish all things in His name
by prayer, what is our Bible worth to ust The
trouble with "Prcsbyterian" and all Christians
Is the lack of that faith which Christ tried to In
culcate, and is the reason why the causc Of
Christ does not prosper moro, nor ever Will
until We put implicit faith in the teachings.
Christ speaks as much to us as to Ills Dlsclplcs
when he said, 80 ye faithless and perverse gen
cration:''
I hare no doubt that "Presbyterian" is
among those who shall be saved as by faith. but
warn him how he chidcs others for having I'M
plicit faitk in Christ's teachings, for nothing
which He taught can be harmful to that religion
which He established. Let I'll Christians be-
lievc Christ's words md cultivate faith to the
fullest extent, and nc have His word for it We
shall never DC put to shame, but will be instru-
1uents in His bands for doing much good.
