Text Content: The mission of Jesus confirmed prophecy, and ex- 27 plained the so-called miracles of olden time as natural demonstrations of the divine power, demonstra- John the tions which were not understood. Jesus' works Baptist, and 30 established his claim to the Messiahship. In the Messiah reply to John's inquiry, "Art thou he that should come," 1 Jesus returned an affirmative reply, recounting his works instead of referring to his doctrine, confident that this 3 exhibition of the divine power to heal would fully an- swer the question. Hence his reply: "Go and show John again those things which ye do hear and see: the 6 blind receive their sight and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And 9 blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me." In other words, he gave his benediction to any one who should not deny that such effects, coming from divine 12 Mind, prove the unity of God, — the divine Principle which brings out all harmony.
