Scriptural healing, arranged from the Bible

CHAPTER ^ PAGE

I — God the Great and Only Physician 9

II — God the Healer of all Diseases 21

Preface

The object of this book is to prove by Biblical authority that God is the great and only Physician, who, in the words of David, ^Tiealeth all our diseases/^ and that the promise of Jesus: ^^He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do/' was meant not alone for His own day and generation, but for all time, and may be realized to-day. The work is absolutely impersonal and non-sectarian in character — a compilation of Scriptural passages, covering the entire range of the Old and New Testaments, without note, comment, or emendation, and which unmistakably reveal the power of God to overcome sorrow, sin, disease, and death.
