  	    This understanding of man's power, when he is
15	equipped by God, has sadly disappeared from Christian
  	history. For centuries it has been dormant, a	                             Promise
  	lost element of Christianity. Our missionaries	                             perpetual 
18	carry the Bible to India, but can it be said that they
  	explain it practically, as Jesus did, when hundreds of
  	persons die there annually from serpent-bites? Under-
21	standing spiritual law and knowing that there is no mate-
  	rial law, Jesus said: "These signs shall follow them that
  	believe, . . . they shall take up serpents, and if they
24	drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them. They
  	shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." It
  	were well had Christendom believed and obeyed this
27	sacred saying. 
  	    Jesus' promise is perpetual. Had it been given only
  	to his immediate disciples, the Scriptural passage would
30	read you, not they. The purpose of his great life-work
  	extends through time and includes universal humanity. 
  	Its Principle is infinite, reaching beyond the pale of a
 1	single period or of a limited following. As time moves
  	on, the healing elements of pure Christianity will be fairly
 3	dealt with; they will be sought and taught, and will glow
  	in all the grandeur of universal goodness.
