NATURAL LAWS USED
BY JESUS IN HEALING
In Sermon the Rev. Dr. Wnbiger Says Christ and His
Disciples Utilized Existing Forces 70 Perform
Their Wonderful Works.

That the success Of modern Christian
healing is due TO the application Of
natural laws, and that Christ himself

is called natural law. But to me
wiser view TO take IS that He used an
existing force by method which He
knew would accomplish His purpose. We

his remarkable works. but we know
that he uses certain forces in accordance
with certain laws.

The first of these texts he said,

orders TO The army, the second is the
anthem of praise upon their victorious
return. The last command OF Jesus 10
his disciples was that they should teach
on nations. that they should bapuze
them in the name OF the blessed trinity
and thai they should instruct them 70
obey All things whatsoever he had com
marded.
Right to Command.
The kingship Of Jesus over the ma
lions is implied in giving this command
for a Worldwide Evangel and his IN
sistence upon universal obedience. IN
less he was King of Kings anG Lord
Of Lords ne had no right TO give the
command or insist upon the Obedienc2.

Starting a Balky Horse

The main object to accomplish in
order to start the balky horse, is to
attract his attention from the load
his seat of trouble Like the kicky
COW, the balky horse usually has
reason for his actions, and when he
refuses to pull the first thing to be
done, is to search for the excuse. See
that his collar is not too small or ill
shaped; and that the harness fits up
snugly, no straps, buckles or hard
objects being pressed against the skin.
If, upon inspecting, the load seems too
heavy for the horse, be man enough
to unload TIL you feel sure that he
can easily move it. None Of these con-
