Classic Christian author A. J. Gordon expresses curiosity about whether the healing miracles from the Middle Ages up to his day can be verified as a continuation of Christ’s Spirit in the church. Through deep study and inquiry of the established history, Gordon concludes that the power to heal followers remains with the church—there was no special era of miracle working. God and His powers remain the same in the modern era as they have right through human history. For Gordon, God’s intervention in the suffering and sickness of His followers is frequent; the will of the Lord however is variable—but He will not prolong the pain of someone whose illness is too great. Throughout this text, A. J. Gordon makes his argument from a biblical perspective, citing passages in both the Old and New Testament that support the continuation of spiritual gifts. Quoting testimonies of believers across the ages, he offers a convincing argument that the church ministry is, to this day, one of healing.

Excerpt from The Healing Ministry of the Church HE causes for the pitiable commonness of these troubles are manifold and complicated, and form an interrelated network which it is im possible to disentangle. The breakdown of re ligious faith; the growing artificiality of our so cial system; the mad rush for wealth; mental idle ness and frivolity; the use of stimulants and nar coties; the lack of self-control, arising, it may be, from overwork, or from culpable self -indulgence - all these and other factors are producing amongst us a neurotic and disordered tempera ment. Hence the formidable list of psychic ailments. I can name here but a few: hysteria, which mani fests itself in exaggerated emotional displays, such as intense craving for sympathy or admira tion, or in unconscious simulation of various dis eases, the fruit of an ill-balanced though by no means organically diseased brain; hypochondria, or the fixed but groundless belief that the subject [5.

Excerpt from The Ministry of the Spirit Christianity is beset with three powerful cur rents, which insidiously Operate to deflect her from her course. Materialism, which denies or ignores the supernatural, and concentrates its heed on ameliorating the outward conditions of human life; criticism, which is clever at analysis and dissection, but cannot construct a foundation on which the religious faculty may build and rest; and a fine literary taste, which has greatly developed of late, and is disposed to judge of power by force of words or by delicacy of expression.

Excerpt from The Healing of Christ in His Church It is apparent on all sides that there is a gradual awakening in many'hearts to the truth of the Healing Presence of Christ in His Church. Many are seeking the truth and longing for healing, and those who are seek ing it in Christ Himself, who is the Truth, are finding the fulfilment of God's promises: Seek and ye shall find: knock and it shall be opened unto you. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled. I believe that God has much to teach us in the life of His Son Jesus Christ, and in the truth of His Presence in our midst, and this little book is sent out, with the consciousness of many imperfections and shortcomings, yet with the earnest desire that with God's blessing it may bring to the Church a helpful message of the Healing Presence of Christ. It is my great desire to see the Church, under the guidance of her Bishops, carrying on once more this part of her mission as the instrument of our Lord's Ministry of Healing, and I feel the great importance of the first steps. There are many rays of truth presented to the world at the present time, and the tendency is to accept this way or that as the whole truth. The whole truth is in Christ alone. He who is Truth and Light of Light gathers up all rays of light and truth in Himself, for all come from Him and all lead back to Him.
