Excerpt from The Christian Century, Vol. 27: January 6, 1910

The third item of his ministry was the healing of the sick, The testimony of the Gospels is so emphatic upon this point that any denial of such power to our Lord goes far toward a repudiation of the simplest and most basic facts of his career. But the heal ing of the sick was to him no mere vulgar display of personal power. It was a part of the manifestation of his spirit, and thus of the divine attitude toward humanity. Jesus healed the sick because his heart went out in pity 'toward them, and he longed to help them in the most immediate and friendly way. But there was also a deeper meaning in these works of power. Their larger need as sick and suffering men and women was the healing of their bruised and diseased souls and of that power the cure of the body was a sort of symbol and pledge.
