The Authority of the Word

June 2, 1953 ·Connersville, IN · English
§1
When was our healing completed?

…Christ’s Name. Amen. [Blank spot on tape—Ed.] If the people could just believe, have faith for all things… Today, way down on the highway many miles below here, almost to Jeffersonville, there was…I stopped in a little place to eat a sandwich…Taking my children, wife home…And I was eating and the phone rang.

§2
What does faith do when the symptoms and the doctors say a person is dying?

Now, see, faith doesn’t look at any—at any symptoms. Faith doesn’t see nothing but victory. Faith has already appropriated it, and there’s nothing else to be done.

§14
What does 'gifts and callings are without repentance' mean?
