LANSING~After the election
results of April 1, there is every
reason to hope and expect that
the Legislature will heed the
clear wishes of the people and
give ample support to the
schools, the colleges and the
universities,

As all-readers of this coiumn know, I have carefully
refrained from any partisanship in these little reports, But
now that the election is over,
I don~t think it~s out of line
for me to say something about

Williams

The second greatest miracle in the world is the healing
of human bodies. This miracle is.as great as the miracle.of
salvation. Divine healing is also a fulfillment of the Propheey. The gospel says (Isaiah 35: 5-6): ~Then the eyes of the
blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be
unstopped. Then the lame man shall leap as a hart, and

the tongue of the dumb sing:.

This prophecy was certainly
fulfilled by Christ, for the gospel of aMtthew (8:16) says that,
~When the even was come, they
brought unto him many that
were possessed w:th devils: and
he cast out the spirits with his
word, and healed all that were
sick..

The Sane~ efficient approach to
the idea of healing is to surrender oneself ecmpletely to God,
to: put oneself in~o the loving
hands of the eternal Gd. Divine

healing is a part of the Gospel, |

and is a divine priv lege.

Healing is an integral part of
the Gospel, flowing from the
very heart of a loving God. Even
after Christ~s departure from~
their midst, the disciples. con-!
tinued to heal the sick. Healing

was meant to be a ~oteahint
part of church ritual, and there
are instances of nealing in every
age.

As the world and cortsin parts
of the church became more ~0 -phisticated, miracles went out
of vogue. The cause did not rest
with God, but grew out of a
lack of~ faith on the part of
man. For God and His word
were relegated to minor poEven today, the Lord
heals those who believe. a

During the years that he spent
-on earth, God did not heal unbelievers. For those of you who
are in need of healing, God~s
healing power can reach your
m'nd and your body if only you

will surrender yourself to the
Master and believe!

~with more colleges following
this lead. we could very quickly and easily move this ugly
blight of discrimination which
exists in our institutions of

Most~ of the ambassadors
would not see us,~ Mr. Arnold
reported, ~but we were able to
talk to some ~Soviet diplomatic
officials, To date, the Soviet
government has completely ignored our petitions.

~Furthermore, when a copy
was offered to the embassies
many of the Russian~ officials
refused-to accept it, not even
wanting to touch it, as if it were
dynamite. tOhers insisted that
many lies had been circulated
about Russia and openly scoffed

at the mention of the name of
the. law of Russia was higher
than the law of Jehovah and
that it had to be obeyed in Russia,~
