“The same power that Christ exercised when He walked visibly among men is in His word. It was by His word that Jesus healed disease and cast out demons; by His word He stilled the sea and raised the dead, and the people bore witness that His word was with power… The Scriptures are to be received as God’s word to us, not written merely, but spoken. When the afflicted ones came to Christ, He beheld not only those who asked for help, but all who throughout the ages should come to Him in like need and with like faith… So with all the promises of God’s word. In them He is speaking to us individually, speaking as directly as if we could listen to His voice… Nothing else can have such healing power. Nothing besides can impart the courage and faith which give vital energy to the whole being.”
