Page 354 - THE SILENT HEALING POWER By DR. MURDO MACDONALD-BAYNE

JANUARY 1953
Since man’s advent upon the earth there have been men and women
who had the wisdom and power to heal. Some of those healings have been so
amazing that the mind of man could not comprehend them. Therefore sceptics
have arisen who have made every effort to deny these amazing transformations
on the ground of their apparent impossibility according to man’s understanding.
Divine healing has achieved wonders where all others methods have
failed. The mind cannot penetrate into the realm of that which is beyond it,
the mind can only reason on what it knows, but that which it does not know,
that which is beyond reason, cannot be defined. It is in this realm that Divine
healing takes place.
Now the question that comes into the individual mind is, how is this
Divine Healing accomplished? How can that which is unseen accomplish
such a complete and instantaneous change?
Phenomena of any kind are produced through a law that is intelligent,
otherwise you could have no phenomena at all. If I have a fear of anything
or if I have faith in anything there is an intelligent law that operates equally
alike in both what I think in fear and what I think in faith. That is the law of
thought or otherwise electro-magnetic vibration.
Truth is an exact science which has not yet been investigated by our
scientists and physicists.
The evidence of chaos around us is just this: that we have failed to
understand the underlying principles of Life. This tragic blunder prevents our
best brains from investigating the subtle Laws inherent in man, and this includes
Divine healing. Denying the existence of such laws does not eliminate the fact, that
there is something in man himself that heals and sometimes instantaneously.
At times it seems that an outside agency is required to set in motion this
Divine Power but this agency is not a necessity for the simple reason that this
Divine Power is inherent in man himself.
The greatest healer known to man, through records handed down
through the centuries, was Jesus of Nazareth and he never claimed that any
power of his own was the source of his healings. His words were clear, that it
was the Father who ever remained within him performed these deeds.
In speaking to his disciples he also said that some had the power of
speaking in various tongues, some had the power of prophesying, some had
the power of seeing and hearing, and some had the power of healing, but it
was the same Spirit that was behind all, showing that no matter what gift
man has, it is the one Spirit Itself that is performing these deeds.
