    I believe in Divine Healing becauseto Isaiah in the 53rdhe chapter shows healing as a part ofor a part of Christs vica-Fo r i t is written in theverse of Isaiah 53, Surely H e hathefs and carried our sorrows

    And in Matt. 8 17, Jesus interpreted thisverse saying, that i t might be fulfilledwhich Isaiah spoke of Him, that Him-self tqok our infirmities and bare oursicknesses This shows that Jesus boreour sick-nesses as well as carried our sins Broth-er, if Jesus bore them, then you and Ido not have to bear them God did notput one thing on Jesus that H e intendedfor you. and me to bear today H e tookour sins and let Jesus bear them away,and He took our sicknesses and diseasesthat we might be healed through faith. Iknow that many teach you that that isall done away with But you cannot dis-prove the message of Divine healing ifyou stay by the Word of God You cantdo i t You have to institute your tradi-tions i f you do away with Divine heal-ing I tell you that healing is an integralpart of Gods Word I t is not a side issue,i t is a main line issue, i t is a part of theatonement Jesus considered Divine heal-ing very important for there are morerecords of His healing the sick than thereare of His forgiving the sins of thepeopleI believe in Divine healing becauseJesus Christ the Son of God, who is theonly authority, never called anybody topreach, never commissioned any one topreach, without commanding them topray for the sick H e didnt tell them topray, Lord, if i t be Th y will H e com-manded them to pray the prayer of faith-You will find in M att 10,how Jesus com-missioned the twelve apostles to go intothe twelve tribes of Israel, to heal thesick, cleanse the leper, raise the dead,and preach the kingdom of Heaven is athand. You will find in the 10th chapterof St Luke, and the first verse, he calledseventy others and sent them.to everycity where H e himself would go and heal-. .. . ..... .-- . ._

These are the signs tfollow them that believe. I n my nathey shall cast out devils, they shall hands on the sick and they shall recovI believe in Divine healing, because Jespoke over and over again about the messo f deliverance He said when H e started in His ministry that the Spirit of the Lwas upon Him because He had anoinHim to preach the gospel to the poor,heal the broken hearted, to preach delivance to the captive, to set at l iberty ththat are bruised, to preach the acceptayear of the Lord Oh, Hallelujah I beliin Divine healing because of the wordsJesus in John 14 12 that say, Verily, I unto you he that believeth on me, works that I do, shall he do also, and greworks than these shall he do because Ito my Father I believe that Divine hing is ours today because Jesus said thatI believe in Divine healing becausethe ministry of the apostles and the dciples The apostles went everywhere hing the sick Paul healed the slck whenwas in Lystra Peter walked up and laidhands on a man and said, Eneas, JeChrist makes thee whole The Blble didsay that Peter healed him He said tJesus Christ made him whole They qutioned Peter asking him who healed the on the day when he said to the lame msuch as I have give I thee, In the nameJesus Christ, rise up and walk ActsPeter said i t was that Name that made man whole I believe in Divine healing cause the apostles practiced the minithat Jesus commanded them to preach, they obeyed and the signs followedI believe in Divine healing becausemen like Stephen and Philip who did scial miracles and performed signs and wders in the presence o f the people becathey were obeying the commission of JesStephen did many wonders and miraclesthe presence of them all I believe in Divhealing because Philip, though only a dcon, when he went down to Samana, a healag revival In Samaria they behthe wonders and signs and miracles healings that he did, and the whole turned to God That is a Bible revival

    E are amazed as we watch monthW by month the great advance of thislast day revival Y et we are persuadedthat we have only seen the beginning ofwhat is about to take place Perhaps themost important development at the timeis the way that the Spirit of G od is mov-ing in the hearts of men toward fellow-ship between all true believers I t ap-pears that if we are to successfully evan-gelize the world in this generation i t willbe necessary for the Church to recognizethe unity of the Body of Christ

    That they all may be one, asthou, Father art in me, and I in thee,that they also may be one in us,that the world might believe thatthou hast sent meSince its inception THE V O I C E O FHE AL I NG has stood for recognition ofthe unity of the Body of Christ Some-times we have-been misunderstood Yetthrough i t all G od has vindicated thisposition with His mighty blessing Wehave watched a fellowship among the topleaders of the various groups developing,which,is fine and i t should set an exam-

    ple for fellowship at other levels I be-lieve we shall see that such a fellowshipis not incompatible with all believers, forby the Spirit of God are we all baptizedinto One BodyWHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT?

    The question now is, What can eachindividual member of the Body of Christdo about the matter of promoting thisunity> W e have traveled many thou-sands of miles in recent months confer-ring with man? leaders and ministers Asa result of these meetings the picture 1sbecoming clear Here is a tentative planin which each member of the Body ofChrist can do his partRecognize that all true believers, re-gardless of affiliation are membersof the Body of Christ (I Cor12 12)

    Join with Christ in His great prayerthat His people might become onethat the world might believe thatthe Father has sent Hi m (John17 21)3 Recognize that Christ is the trueHead of the Church (E phes 1 22,4 15)-

    4 Pray that God will set in the Churchall the ministry-gifts which willbring the church into the unity of

    the faith (Ephes 4 11-13 )Practice the commandments of Jesuswhich are the true ethics and rule ofconduct (M att 7 24-27 )

    6 Pray that G od will supernaturallypreserve the church from evil that i tmight be without spot or wrinkleat the Coming of the Lord Evil inthe Church will surely divide i t(Ephes 5 27)Support all ministries and projectsthat are truly working fo r the unityof the Body of Christ

    THE VO IC E O F HE AL I NG considersitself only as a voice crying in the wil-derness Those associated with it rejoicein the anticipation of the hour when thewhole Church in spirit becomes one Onething is certain, the modern Church whichdenies the great fundamentals of thefaith is uniting, and is representing rtself to the world that i t is the ChurchUnless the true Church moves rapidlyinto unity i t may be without a voicewhen the great crisis comesTHE CO NVEN TION IN PHILADELPHIA

Delegatesfrom over one hundred church denomi-nations meet in Evanston, I l l inois D oyou think it is Gods wil l that weell getunder one denominational head W e un-derstand that God has placed the gif t ofgovern ments in th e church, bu no tmuch instruction is given on the formthat this government wil l take T h e EarlyChurch was a communal church whereeveryone sold al l that h e had, and hadall things in common No one claims thatthis is the method to be imposed today,so apparently God has not laid down theexa ct form church government\must takeCould you give us some enlightenmentconcerning Gods plan fo r church govern-ment?W I L L I A M B R A N H A MThank you Brother L indsay I thinkthat this is an important question youhave asked m e I do not c la im to b e ab leto solve all these things, but I will giveyou my understanding in the matter, tothe best of my knowledge I a m a greatbeliever in God guiding each local churchI believe th at the.gift of governmentsshould be for the purpose of governingeach church I believe in unity among thechurches, of course, but each church hasits own ministry and the highest orderin the local church that I can find in theB i b l e is that of elderAs the gift of governments would beon this elder, he would receive inspira-tion from the Holy Spirit, how he mustrun his church I f you will notice as youtravel, you will see the peculiarity of1 2

    each church, one will seem just a littledifferent from the other, and I think thatis the working of the Holy Spirit ThereIleFGur problem today Now as the HolySpirit deals with one church in one way,H e ma y deal with another church in an-other way We will find that running innature One tree grows real tall, anothershort. And we w l l find it in the statureof men, we will find it in the nature ofpeoples B u t af ter al l arent we al l hu-man Should not we be brethren I thinkwe should have an agreement, as Chris-tian ministers, that we are in unity witheach other, though each church has itsown government. Thus, the Holy Spiritgoverns one church in one way, and an-other church in another way But of ten,there is where the trouble comes Onepastor will receive inspiration and hischurch will be governed in one way, andanother in a different manner Then in-stead of keeping unity, they fal l out andargue and try to make both churchesthe same, when they cannot be th e sameFurthermore, Brother Lindsay, it mightbe said tha t each church operates l ike ahome M a yb e in my home I would gov-ern my family in a different way thanyou would govern your family, yet weare brethren I have several brothers, Igo their homes, and watch how they dis-cipline their children. It may be differ-ent than mine I have my way, and theyhave their way And I think that theyhave nice children and I have nice chil-dren, and we are brothers And I thinkthat is the way that the governments ofthe church should beIf only we could see this interna-tionally He re in Am erica we are gov-erned by a democracy, and another by akingdom or someother way, but we are

    all brothers on the earth I f we cosomething today that would mathe kingdoms of this world recognizother as brethren, make al l nationognize that they may have their-peform of government, and yet recoone anoth er a s brother nations, wehave something Th e world wouldpeace, and the Millennium would Bu t they don t do hat And thereone way that they can do that , anis when the Holy Spirit takes rureigns over the earthI think that this also applies Church I think that if one churcto bring all churches into one orgtion, it will never work There ione thing th at will do it, that is whHoly Spirit moves into the body l ievers and they al l become one Fochurch has its own peculiar way l ief, and government, and to try t oall other churches the same waynever workWhile we are here in this wothink that we should strive to keunity of th e Spirit an d leave the gment of the churches as their ownGod governs one a little differenthe other Bu t we should have fel loone with the other, for we are wping one God, and we have theSaviour, the Lord Je sus ChristQ U E S T I O NFrom what you have said, theof th e Church must be a result work of the Holy Spirit.

    J u s t a few nights ago I was looking atsome pictures brought back from Pales-t ine , showing the fulfil lment of t h e Scrip-tures T h e pictures cal led at tent ion toIsa iah 35, where it sa ys t ha t t he deser tshall blossom as t h e rose, a nd t he l a ndwould be restored to cultivation Andmore than that , God is fulfilling Hispromise to send His sons and daughtersf r om t he ends o f t he wor ld , b a ck to t h eland of their fathers And those whowere returning were being asked thisquest ion Why are you com i ng her e Coming back to the homeland to die?T h e y were bringing their lame and hal tand blind, coming back from al l partsof the Ivorld, by ships, p lanes and otherw ay s B u t s o m e o f t h e m s a i d, We a r enot coming back to di e , b u t we are com-ing to see t h e M e s s i a h Now notice G od ha s l e t man run hiscourse in a l l things I think the worldreal izes that now After the kingdomsof this world have been turned over tom a n to r u n, t hey ha ve m a de a conglom-er a t i on a nd mess o u t o f it a l l T h e y c a n trun it And I t h i nk t he same a b ou tchurches Ma n cannot run th e churchChrist is t he H ea d of t he C hu r ch, a ndeach individual must be ful ly submittedto Him I b el i eve t ha t time )s com i ngsoon, a nd t ha t is why you are asking forthis ar t icle Al l over the world there isa hunger for that uni ty I bel ieve it is awork of t he H ol y Sp i r i t , a nd t he HolySp i r i t a l one ca n do t h i sJust like those poor ignorant Jews return-ing back, knowing nothing of th e Bib le Andthey dont know why they are coming backOnly they are looking for the Messiah, andwe, as prophetic teachers, know that IS ful-filling the Scrip tures Th ey are coming backbecause the Holy Spirit is bringing themback to the homeland for the coming of the

    Lord So e work of the Hol y Spirit is alsoto prepare the Church for His coming Ihave felt it in the last eight years of myministry You have seen it Men are talkingabout it everywhere It is the Holy SpiritHimself bringing us together I think thatif every man will pray for the fulfillmentof this vision, the Holy Spirit will finallyaccomplish this task of bringing the Churchinto one great unityThe Early Church was of one heart, onesoul and one mind, because the Holy Ghostmade them one We are living in the daysof the restoration Eve n as Israel is beingrestored to her homeland, so the Church isbeing restored to its apostolic power, bygreat signs and wonders And the next thingthat is i n order is a great unity of the Spirit.and the time seems ripe Therefore, if thepeople would look for it, and be on the tip-toe of expectancy for it, the Lord wouldunite His people again in that one heart,one soul and one mind, in answer to theLords praye,rQ U E S T I O N

    It has been said that this work of unitingthe body of Christ is a work of the SpiritD o we understand you correctly then thatour work is to begin to recognize what Godhas already done That is, we must recog-nize the Body of ChristW I L L I A M B R A N H A M

    Yes , that is it We must be on our tiptoesEvery opportunity we see to do this, to putforth every effort we can to bring this about-the recognition of the Body of Christ-is,I think, the will of GodQ U E S T I O NBrother Branhain, Jes us undoubtedly rec-ognized that the re was going to come differ-ences among members of His Church Oneof the few things that Jesus said directlyabout His Church was, If thy brother hathought agaifist thee, go to him Do youthink that sets forth a principle3

    W I L L I A M B R A N H A MTh at is right, Brother Lindsay Thtrue All over the world people are bning to think that way T o those whothese words I will say, that they searchlabor to find a way to bring this unthe people I would like to say this WI first came among the Full Gospel pI thought the Millennium had startehappy was I over this wonderful fellowBut my heart was broken when I foundsplit up into different organizations then, my whole effort has been to get together I s m trying with all of my to set an example If this or that orgation wants me to come for a meeting,gladly do it No matter who they are,trying to stand in the breach and sayare brethren I am trying to see alChurch united together in spirit I thinkit is exactly right that we should put every effort to bring unity to the ChQ U E S T I O N

    Atomic OutlookIn a recent article in the Swiss weeldy,Die Weltwoche, M r Lorenz Stucki antic-ipates that in the not too distant future,the Soviet Union will have enough atomicweapons to inflict wholesale destructiononAmenca Then, he says, for the firsttime in history, it will be clear beyond alldoubt, that nobody can win a major war.Hitler was still able to start a war in theconviction that he would end i t with aprofit overbalancing the loss,e Now,however, hope of military victory in anew world war is impossible, and is re-placed by the absolute certainty of anni-hilation of both sides I t looks like menare now setting the stage for the terriblydestructive battle of Armageddon spokenof in Ezekiel 39, and Revelation 16:16* * * *

    Military Manpower PlanA sweeping new military manpower.plan aimed at mili tary duty for all quali-fied young men, followed by compulsoryservice in a new reserve setup, has beenapproved by the Eisenhower Adminis-tration, i t was disclosed recently in Wash-ington The object is to prepare the na-tion for any possible war with RussiaThe whole thing is geared to the dayof active war with the Soviet Union,said Assistant Secretary of Defense JohnA Hannah in expanding the policy ap-proved by the national security councilfor submission to Congress early nextyear Everyone up to the President,Hannah said, agrees that we must have

    an effective reserve to meet the require-ments of war with the Soviets I t surely appears that we are now a pproaching the hour for the actual fulfill-ment of the remarkable prophecy in theProclaim ye this..

Everyoneknew of the miserable life I ledOne day, over a year ago, I heardeveryone commenting about an evangeli-cal pastor who healed the sick in thenearby city of Valparaiso. Although I hadscoffed at their idea that I might behealed, when the evangeli st, Cli ftonErickson, came to Santiago, I elt deepinside that I should go to his meetingsM y wife was an evangelist and pleadedwith me to goWe went that afternoon with my twolittle children who had tuberculosis I saton the ground as usual W e were thereall afternoon and until eleven oclock atnight I l istened to the songs and thepreaching A t last Brother Enckson be-gan to pray for the sick and soon he saidhe would pray for all the paralytics andcripples, and that all who had that afflic-tion should believe nght where they wereand they would be healed.
