The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1910-04-02

This lesson gives an account Of four
different acts Of healing upon I'VE dit
fsrent people-the rulers daughter.
twelve years Of age: the woman twelve
years sick. the two blind men and the
demon possessed dumb man. Matthew.
Mark and Luke record the first two.
but Matthew alone tells OF the others
All are equally easy to Him to whom
nothing Ii dif1lculf when there Is conf.
dence in Him. The principle of verse
. holds all through. According to
your faith be 1t unto you" But we
must always remember that these
were samples Of the kingdom which
was then Mt hand. but because of His
rejection postponed till He shall come
again. Az l understand II. we cannot
expect kingdom manifestations In this
age, OF His rejection except as He may
in great grace see at to grant them.
But as the age draws to close. which
1t is rapidly doing. We may look for
greater signs az the kingdom OF
heaven again draweth nigh. May we.
like Stephen. be full of faith and of
the Holy Ghost. full OF faith and
power.
The other accounts Of the drst two
heaiings are found In Mark aud
Luke viii There we are told that the
mans name was. Jairus: that be was q
ruler Of the synagogue: that he fell
down at Jesus feet and besought Him
greatly. for his little daughter was
tying at the point OF death. and she
was his only daughter. Jesus arose
and followed Jairus. and so did Hia
disciples. and much people also FOL

But in the throns that pressed upol
Him there was one desolate heart-a
