Miracles Wrought Through Prayer

The Lord found Ethan A llen in the days when the doctrine of Divine l lealing was in its infancy. Although a poor consumptive and unfil for hard labor. he was superin­tendent of a poor farm in one of the ~ew Ellgland states. J Ie re were hOl1sed not only the indigent but also the fecble-minded and the hannless lunatics.

A .:'.lethodist class meet ing was being held in a count ry school house nearby, and God. knowing the possibilities wrapp('d up in that simple-hearted poor master, drew him hitherward. The testimonies and prayers were fervent. and the Spi r it of the Lord was present in power.

At the close one of the leaders said to him, "Brother Allen, don't you think it is iime for you to seek re ligion?" H e was deeply impressed and \\'el1t forward and accepted .Teslls as hi s Saviour. Great joy fi ll ed his sO lll and there was much rejoicing.

Then in the enthusiasm of his new­found joy he said, "Brethren . if you will pray for me 1 believe thi s might y powcr that has come upon me wil1 heal my lungs." For a momcnt the class leaders were stag­gered. Such a thing was unheard of. Then one spoke up and asked, "Docs it not say 'They shall lay hands 011 the sick and they shall recon~r' ?, They had read the scrip­ture many times but they had never knowl1 anyone to take it litera lly. ,\t the suggestion of some one to "Try it" they prayed. and to the astonishment of all lmt Eth<l11 .'\l1ell, he was instan tly healed.

Back to t he poor farm he went and in his simplicity prayed for the sick l1nder his care.

Jordan Illtans judgment and death to all ou r am hitions that arc contrary to thc will of (jod. The onc g reat cause of fail­ur(' among (~oci's childrcn, is drawing back frllTll the life of Ix:ing "crucificd with Christ." G(KI is longing to do sumething (Il'finit l: and rC'a1 for you and for me, and that is why Il l.' is hringing His Church down to till.' chilly watcrs of the Jordan; but, heloved, wh{'n you and 1 comc to that place, 'it'l' 'l~·ill J/~'1'£'r "m'c to cross Jordan alond \\'c will pass o\"er under thc covering of Ill(' ~Iantle.

Eli~ha \va ., willing to follow on to the g(,al that Elijah was making for-the Chariot of Fire which was awaiting him. " Th~y two wcnt on"; God had over­powcrcd the watcrs of the Jordan and had made for them a path on dry land. 1 f we too rcach the place of obedience, willing to walk in Ihc path that the Lord makes for us, God will ncvcr suffer us to be over­whelmed by thc storms, the darkness, the trials, and test that come to His children to purify them as fine gold; li e will makc for us a through path. What were thcse t wO going on for? The "chariot of Fire" and the ·'double portion of thc Spi rit." They had something in view; thcy wcre not tak­IIlg this journey for nought! Brother, sister, \'ou will lle,'cr make a sacrifice for God for ilOUght! \\'e arc uot "going on" simply to till in timc and space, Lut that we might I.."ow Ihe heights alld depths that arc ill

The lllen and wOl11cn who are "going Oil" will rmd their hunger for God in­crensing, but the oncs who are tarrying h\· thc way will soon lose that hung-er and t' I· 1 for God. Even after Elisha had

God is taking His little nock c10wli to the Jordan, where a work is being wrought that will enable the power of Je!'lIs Chri st to come forth in greater ml'asure than eve r before. Jordan' s waters arc opening up a great vision to God's children today; uut if our eyes and hearts ar(' fillcrl with cr iticism, murmuring, and l"nking- back 10 past experiences where we got hl('s~('(\ at Gilgal, Bethel, or Jericho, in<Mad of "going on," we have lost the \'i"jnll God has for us.

E lijah told Elisha he had asked a hard thing, bul, nevertheless, "if tholt shalt see III£" 'whl' ll I am laken up, til(> lIIallt/e ,·s YO·lIrs." Tn other worels, if you continue to kecp your gaze upward, away from the things beneath and about you. when my chariot comes and you sec me go. the malltl(' is )!ollrs! Do you think that there was any power or demonstration, any person o r thing, that could havc turncd Elisha's gazc at that moment to the things of the world? No! If you and I want a double portion of God's Spirit. our gazc will have to he lifted heavenward and OLll" heart in wne with His.

"They two wenl on." Suddenly, there "was the sOHnd as of a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the place where thcy were," just as it filled the Upper Room on the Dav of Pcntecost. Elisha saw the chariot and horses, and a great cry burst forth from his heart: "My Father! My Father! Thc chariot of Israel and the horsemcn thereof." As that chariot as­cended and he stood gazing up, the man­tic fell at his feet. \Vhat did Elisha then do? Ile rent his cnVll mantle-he rent his own works, all his past experiences : when hc receiyed the "double Portion," thcy becamc as filthy rags to him.

J remember when as a young man I felt urged into the mini~try. I g-a"e up e,·ery­thing I had in the world and started out. I was poorly prepared but pn:~scd by some urge that just drove me to it. I went out and spent a year, and during that year I be­came more and marc conscious of my lack of preparation and effectiveness. I made a good record. Some said I was a go-getter. But I realized 1 was illy prepared to preach, and I prayed desperately to God about it. lIe put me in the background for years and when it came God's time for me to enter the ministry He had to push me out. I just surrendered to Him and told Him He would have to make every provision and ar­range every detail. I didn't do any­

There is no offence in the \\ford of God. You can preach all the truths to all the people all the time without olftnce, if YOli do not add offence to il. You can't preach anything al (he people without offence, howe,·er. You lllay drive them and get them to move on man-made conviction, but such convict ion is nOt worth much. \Vhat the people need is Holy Ghost conviction.

I remember how I refused ordina­tion for a number of years. :\fy friends and fellow workers said I should be ordained. I said, "No, 1

do not think so; I am not worthy." I thought I could work without being ordain­ed. I held a meeting nearly every day for years before I was ordained. I saw many souls saved before I was ordained. Ordina­t ion appeared to me a very serious step. From the time I took upon myself the obli­gation and responsibility of an ordained dder in the church of Jesus Christ, ] knew 1 had to live a separated life. I knew I could nOt expect to have an ordinary experience. I was in for an extraordinary experience. I knew if I didn't live it straight I couldn't preach it straight. It came to me without much mental process but with tremendous cOllviction in my soul. that the character of a man might mean a lot mOre to the success of the gospel than his ability to speak the words of truth.

I was at a convention in New York, and a brother met me in the lobby of the build­ing where] was staying. lIe said, "There are some brethren upstairs who would like to have you come tip." J went and found eight min isters. T did not lInderstand. J was acquainted with only three of them. I think. But they said, o;nrother \Velch, we have gathered here and asked you to come in with us for a conference he":lt'~e we fp"l

vide the \Vord of Truth. YOli cannot preach the truth unless yOIl know the tru th. You must know the doctrines o f the Bible or you neve r can preach them. You can exhort the people, but there is a vast di fference between preaching the Word and exhorting- the peo­ple. Exhortation has its place-it has a tre­mendous value. Personal teslimony has its place, and it has great value. It is a furthcr something, however, 10 he able to give the people an intell igent interpretation of the things of the old Book

Now you remember 2 Tim. 2 :15, "Study to show thysel f approved unto God, a work­man that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth." \Vell, we have used that so many times to indicate the need of people studying the Bible, that we ha\'c put the emphasis in the wrong place. If you look into the background of that passage of Scripture, perhaps paraphrasing it so it will be a little clearer, you will see that Paul's admonition to Timothy is to be very, very careful, to consider very care­fully, the matter of keeping in touch with God so that you have the approval of God in everything, so that there will be at least one worker who does not need to he asham· cd or who will not \)e confllsed and COn-

Now ] have tried to do the work of the Spirit many times, but I have never suc­ceeded in doing it. It always had certain earmarks that d('signated its source. My efforts, the thing I did, always had a peculiar sort of kink to it. What the Spirit of God does is borne witness to by the Spirit Himself, and it has His earmarks and is of a difTerent thing from what we do.

Another verse in th is chapter says, " I f a man purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet for the Master's usc, and prepared unto every good work." In the context Paul mentions several things that interfere with the will of God being done in a man's life and designate the fact that he is not a sancti fied vessel.

Did Vall ever notice that there are two orders 'Of cleansing ill the Bible? One is washing, and the other is purging. Paul says there arc a lot of things that may hinder tremendously. They are foreign in their nature to the things of the Spirit of God. And they are inside a man. Purging is in­ternal cleansing. Paul is telling Timothy to get those things out. Any man who will get them out and \\'ill he rid of liwln ran bc a

The Pharisres vehellwntly pressed their qucMion and lie said, " lIe that is withol1t si n among you, let him lirst cast a stone at her."

O nce more lie stooped to the unresi.stin.g dust and wrote. Ilow wonderful It. IS when I k who is the living \Vonl wntes lI is law into our hearts. making IlS living epistles of Chr ist, knowlI and read of all men.

These men who we're (tiled with the spirit of him who is " the aCCuser o.f tl~c brethre.n," had sought to tempt Chnst III order to accuse llim, hut Oil(' by onc they slunk away like darkness hefore the light.

\\' hen they had all gone, Jesus spOke: "\.v oman, wherc arc those thme accusers? hath no man condcmned thr:c ?" She answer· cd "No man, Lord." Theil li e who ":as sh~rt ly to bear all the sin3 of thi s poor adulte rous woman ill J I is body 011 the cross. and to bear in full tbe condemnation due nOt only to her but to \I R all, said, "l\'cither (10 J condemn thee: go, and sin no more."

I n Levi ticus chapters 4 aud 5 we have the pictures of the sin o ffering and thc trespass offer ing. The trespass offering was made for all transgressions of God's holy law that the offerer had made. At Calvary Jesus "was delivered for our ofTences" (Rom. 4 :25 ), the many things in which we have ofTended against the holy law of our holy God.

But the sin ofTe l'lIlg goes yet deeper than thi s. It deals with what we arc--<:reatures full of sin. "If we say that we have no ~i n we deceive ollrselves. and the lruth b not in us." 1 John I:R h was because of what we are, as w~'11 as \\'hat we have done. that J esus sufTcrco, and bled. and died.

\\' hen a man brought hi s 5111 ofTering he laid hi s hands upon it, That act was eq~li­valent to hi s ~ay ing. "1 am an unworthy Sll? ­ncr deserving' death. but 1 transfer my Sill to this sub~ titllte to rece i\'c the 1"x.'nalty that 1 desenc. It will bear the judgment that ~holiid be millt'. ;md so I shall be free from both sin and judgment."

Theil the priest killed the sacrifice he · fore the I.ord. lis blood was poured out. \\'ondrous picture of that river of h~ood that Aowed from the \'('ins of our preCIous Sa\'iour, thaI ca rries away all Ollr sins into the \'ast ocean of God's forgetfulness. .

The fat w:!s burned upon the altar-a PIC­ture of Christ'" acceptance before God. for 1 Te was altogcther unblemished when 1 I.t' made ilim-;(·lf an offering for sin. and H IS offering was accepted of God.

o bl('ss('d r .amh of God. we should have received such treatment as this as a due re­ward for our d('cdc; . hut Thou hadst done nothing amiss! As we gaze at Thee who died the jl1st for th(' 1I I1 jll<;'t. we each arc eon<;,traincd to crv, "Lord. rememher me when ThOll comest into Thy kingdom."

And I r(' who was cast Out that we might hr hrought nigh assures us, "Him that cometh unto Me I will in no wise cast out." He says to us as He did to that woman, "Go. and sin no more," and imparts to us ll is own holy, divine and eternal life.

Paul realized Ih:lI all he needcd was in Christ. His one desire was 10 know Him and the pow(,r of His rcsurrection. He wanted 10 enter into the fellowship o f His sufferings and be conformed unto His death - made like unto Him in every respect. That too should be our desi re. to know this loving Christ who takes our sins and gives us ll ic; righteou<;ncss. \Vc should look to H im to impart to ti S each day 1 ris own risell life and holiness. \Ve should he ready to go with H im without the camp bearing His reproach. As H e was dead to the world and the world dead to H im, ~o it should be our glory to be crucified to the world. and to have the world crucified to us.

OU I' place henceforth i" not the city where our r ,orcl wa s crucified. which is cal1ed Sodom and Egypt ( Rev. 11 :8), but God has prepared ti S a ci ty on high. the heavenly Jerusalem.

The ministry of Philip at ~amaria, re­corded in the 8th chapter of ,\(t:>, is unique.

Almost any true ~crvant oi God would gladly welcome a revival like Philip had at Samaria. The Lord was so plcased with his ministry, that when lIe wanted to send the gospel to the .\frican continent, He let Philip be His amba~sador to convey the glad tidings concerning Christ to the Ethiopian eunuch.

\ \'hen the apostles at J erllsaicm beard of the revi\'ai Philip had at Samaria, they sent Peter and John, that they might pray for these new converts that they might receive the lIoly Ghost, "for as yet He was fallen upon none of them."

1n the midst of a Pentecostal re\'ival in onr home city, the pastor of a large church ca lled a special meeting to prove Ihat the Baptism in the Spirit was fcn:ivcu at COIl­

version, and that the I 'entecostal people were wrong in looking for a suhsequent ex­perience. There were a number of pros and cons offered. I was in the audience. Sud­denly the Spirit fla"hed Philip's revival be­fore 111e, and I arose and asked this pastor if he were willing to go on record that he be· li e\'cd those Philip baptized were not saved, for it clearly states lhat they had not yet received the IToly Ghost. This was :l hard question for him to anS\Ver. Finally he said no. Immediately the audience arose and dis­persed, after this reluctant admission.

If we will preach Christ, making Him the center of attraction, revivals similar to

that of Philip will follow, and if needs be there will be those that will have a ministry much like that of Peter and John, to pray that the Spirit may be otltpoured on new converts.

Everyone of us is caUed to be a witness for 01rist by both word and li fe. If we ful­ly realized this, what a change it would make in us. First. it would call for a closer walk with God, and that would greatly belp to eliminate many of our troubles. Many of the saints that have felt there has been little for them to do, would find places where they could witness to individuals, pass a tract or Gospel of John, or do house-to­house evangelism (Acts 5 :42), do work among children, or give a heartly handshake with a "God bless you!It

Once while holding a campaign in the city of \Vashington, D. C, I visited the vVhite House and shook hands with Presi­dent Coolidge. As I did I said to him, "God bless you!" and he bowed and thanked me most graciously. I have greatly appreciated even that privilege of witnessing for Jesus.

Andrew was not as prominent as some of the other apostles, yet it was he who first found his brother Peter, and brought him to Jesus. John 1 :41. \Vhat a ministry God gave Andrew in bringing Peter, who became a great soul-winner. A Sunday School teacher witnessed to Dwight L. Moody in a shoe store in Boston, and led him to Christ. lvloody became one of th<; \VQrld's great soul-winners.

Gideon was husy threshing wheat when the angel of the Lord :.-;aid to him, "Go in this thy might, and thol! sh:tlt !o'ilVC

fsrael from the hand of the ),Iidianites." David was busy attending sh('t,p when God

called him. God do('s not want us to he lazy, slothful and lukewarm, but followers of the noble examples set hy l11('n of faith of old.

The Pentecostal movemcnt has reaped much f rOI11 the great ha rvest of souls won through the efforts of the variolls evan­gelical and holiness movelllelltS, and men like Moody, T orre)" Chapmcn, Sunday, General Booth, and others that were faith­ful in preaching Chr ist. Today we need to put forth a strong efTort for a great har­vest of souls. If the Spirit· fill ed people fail in going forth and witnessing, who will ?

It is sa id that one of the powcrful nations of Europe is on the wane, because o f the low birth rate. The same will be true of any religious body that fail s to preach Christ in a way that the new-birth rate or born­again experience will not be on the in ­crease. ~Iay the Spirit-fi ll ed saints of today not waste time contending for certain phases of doctrine that sooner or later fade into the background, but rather use their energy in witnessing for Christ.

"The gospel .. shall be preached in all the world (note) for a wi/Hcss, and then the end shall come." In Rev. 20:4, John said, "I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the 'Witness of J esus, and for the \Vord of God." This company " lived and reigned with Chri st a thousand years." God will not fail to compensate us for faithful witnessing. \Vill 11e be able to say to you, "Well done. good and faithful servant" ?

"There IS thereforc now 110 COII(/CIIIIIDlio l l

to them which are in Jesus?" I{om, 8: 1. N ever listen to thc accuscr of the brethren, for he will ever endeavor to get YOIl to limit the 1 foly One of I srael. Ever be looki ng to thc limitl('ss expanse of God's mercy and grace. Abundance of grace! Grace to swallow up all condcmnation !

Do not spend all your time examining yourself in analytic introspection. Keep looking unto Jesus. If God be for us, who can be against liS? T f yOll and your house arc trusting in the hlood of Christ , the dcstroying angel cannot touch you,

Hesist the devil and he will flee from you, and rcsist him not only for yourself but for thc Church of God. Thc devil is th e accuser of the bre/llrcn, and if he Crlnnot accuse the[11 of actual sin hc will brin~ lip imaginations.

Your adversa ry, the devil, as a roaring lion, \\I,JJketh about, seeking- whom he may devour: wltom resisl slead/ast ill the failh. One of the subtleties of the enemy is to endeavor to make you believe that all ),ollr morbid introspections a re from God.

Don't measure God by your Own petty feelings. J Je is infinite in wi !-;dom and strength and boundless grace. Gel a vision of God and ]Jis infiniteness. When the enclllY reproaches you and says to you daily, "Were is thy God?" cry out to yOllr soul like the Psalmi"t, "\Vhy art thou di squit;lcd within me? H ope thou in God: for J shal1 )'c/ praisc Hjml'~ Praise de­feats thc foe. The living creatures in the J(cvelation ccase not day nor night in thei r praisc, and God would have a people ever doing the same.

The enemy seeks in every way to come in, but we are not ignorant of his devices, for we are not of the night but o f the day. Never yield to the temptation to measure God by the devi\'s rule. He limits God all the time. "Can God do this or that? Can God furnish a table in the wilder­ness? Yea, hath God said this?" The children of Israel listened, and tbey com­plained of God's provision, "Our soul 10<1theth thi s light brcad!" They wanted to go back to Egypt. T hey listened to the devi l and they fell by the way. Ncver listen to him. He is the accuser of the brethren. He is going to be cast out of the heavenly places, but before that, when he knows his time is short , he will mult i­ply his accusations.

Accusation upon accusation hurled at the child ren of God! How? Through others, directly or indirectly. vVhen you hear an accusat ion against a child of God, remember who is the prompter. The accuser of the brethren will be cast out, and those who lend their lips to his ac­cusations must mind lest they themselves be cast down with him. You have not so learned Christ. "Where are thine accus­ers?" Jesus asked the woman. "Neither do I condemn thee."

There is no condemnation to those that arc in Olrist Jesus . Why? Because He I Cimsel f has had all the condemnat ion the devil could give. He was condemned

by thc priests, by Pilate, and His own pco­Ille dl'ni('d 11il11, And those who are in Christ Jesus are not condemned, becatl~e Ill' was condemned for them. He whom the Son scts free is free indeed. Free now, and for time and eternity! \Valk as freed people and do not come under the condem­nation of the enemy. The Lord has grace upon grace for you, for He is full of grace. I'raise Jlun for thc greatness o[ His grace, for lhe grcatne~~ of 'lis victory and for the greatl1(:ss of your freedom.

Miracles W rought Through Prayer (Continued from Page One)

see when you partic'larize you've got to be parti c'lar! I never said a word about them fed." Then turning on the devil, he said, "Oh yes, you thought because I never men­tioned them feet that you'd just stay there. Tn the name of J CS11S, come out !" The feet became normal almost immediately.

J Ie of t(·J1 fasted before the Lord; in fact he would not take a difficult case until he had fa!'ltec1, and in many cases he insisted on fasting by the side of the sick. A min­ister said that he once knew him to refuse both food and wate r fo r six days and nights. During this time he prayed for and received deliverance of an ins.:,ne man. In extreme cases like this, he said he always insist ed on some ncar relative's fasting as long as he did; saying that Jesus in dealing with children and irresponsible adults always acted in conjunct ion with parents or near relatives.

A minister once wrote him to pray for a sick woman and received the following re­ply on a post card, "AI! hai l! I offered the words of cast in' out as they were given to me by the H oly Ghost, by the space of half an hOll r, and I feel sure the devil has gone out of the woman."

The woman herself had bcen a teacher of Divine Healing and had seen many people healed in answer to her prayers, and in the natural would have resented his "words of castin' out," but she was sick unto dcath

and could get no help from God. ~he final­ly callcd in several doctors and they pro­nounced her case as hopeless. The), were unable to agree in their diagnosis but all ad­mitted that shc was beyond their help. For sometime the woman remained in this hc1p­Je~s condition and then the minister lost sight of her, having movcd to a distant city. He often wondered about "Father" Allen's words of eastin' out and whether in this case they had failed. Fivc years later he held a service in that same city and a portly wo­man came and shook hands with him whose name he could not recall. He learned that it was the same woman whom he left in a dying condition. "Tel! me abollt it," he said. "Therc is nothing to tell," she replied. "All I know is that 1 awakened one morning to find myself in perfect health." She her­self had no faith and apparently no one else had faith for her, but God could not deny His servant who had such childlike faith in Him.

At one time he had on his cheek-bone an open sore which was pronounced cancer. He fasted and laid hands on it, as he did for others, prayed and believed. The growth was checked but the sore was sti ll there. After a time a brother said to him, "Brother Al­len, the cancer seems to persist in its work." lIe replied, "Oh yes, I have not had time to attend to it," meaning that he had so much to do fo r others that Ite could not take time to fight the devil and fast and pray until victory was manifest. Sometime after, this same man met him and his face was fair and spotless. In speaking of it, 1[r. Allen said, "It dried up like a coat bu tton held in place by a shank. One day I picked it off the floor, where it had drop­ped . It had a fiber coming out of the ebeek attached to it like the shank of a button. Oh, I knowed it had to go!"

I nto the Home for Incurables it was his joy to go, to bring delivcrance to those for whom there was no earthly help. Miss Musgrove of Troy, N. Y. wrote in 1924 of her remarkable experience when this humble inst rument in God's hands was used in her healing. She had been a terrible sufferer for four and a haH years, and had had many of the best physicians, but the verdict of all was that her entire body was so completely worn out that recovery was impossible. She was taken to the Home for Incurables in Brooklyn, N. Y. in the early summer of 1881, with a letter to the matron saying that she might live until fall, but God gave her the assurance that she should again engage in Christian work. Two Christian women who were acquainted with Father Allen's very fruitful ministry in behalf of the sick wrote her, asking if they might send him to pray for her healing. She prayed that if this were God's will to lead a woman of faith in the Home to acqu iesce, and when this woman read the letter she said, "I be­lieve this is God's will." \Vhen Ethan Al­len was asked to go, he inquired of the Lord what he should do, and H is answer was, "Go. I will raise her up for My glory."

Hc arrived at the H ome about supper t ime and was asked to eat his supper before praying for her. His reply was character­istic: "No, the Lord has important work for me in this Home. I shall neither eat nor drink until it be accomplished." Then go­ing at once to the sick woman he asked rc -

garding her Christian experience. \\'hen he asked, "Do you believe that God is willing to heal you JIOW/" she said "Yes." And as he laid on hands he told the Lord he believed on the authority of His Word she was heal­ed. As they praised the Lord for healing new Ii fe thrilled and thrilled through her en­tire bell1g. "The forty-two years since that hour have proved the healing permanent."

"Father" Allen's fast was not thell o\·er. He still refused food on the ground that the Lord showed h im there were other cases in that Home, and also outside for whom lle would use him, and whilc this special s:ason of ll1i~istry lasted for se\'cral days, hiS fast contmued, and it was remarkable that when thc fast was ended he seemed as fresh as at the beginning.

One case in particular was remarkable, that of a very amiable young lady. \\'hen he commcnced to p ray for her he stated that hers was a case o f demon possession. Some of the inmates of the H ome were angrv that he should make such a statement, but llc rc­peated it and obtained her permission to work with her on that ground. As soon as he commanded the evil spirits \ .... hich were tormenting her to depart she became violent, eycn using physical force against him-the on lookers at the same time upbraiding him. He was unmoved and continued to command the ev il spirits to leave. At last she fell back on the bed as though dead, insomuch that some cr ied out, "He has killed her!" "She is dead!" But soon she arollsed and praised the Lord saying, "I am healed."

On another occasion he was praying with a gi rl who was demon-possessed and trying to cast the devil out. The demon was slow in obeying the command, so Father Allen said, "I tell you what T will do. I will let you go into my pig at home." The you ng woman was then delivered as the demon gave up his hold. Meantime "Father" Al­Ien 's wife was at home and knew nothing about this OCcurrence. Only she noticed that something terrible had come over the pig; it apparently became insane and raced back and forth in the pen like mad. When her husband came home she sa id, "Oh Ethan, Ethan, I do not know what is the matter with our pig." Hc said, "I know what is the matter. I permitted that demon to go il1to our pig but I will not permit him to stay there." So he cast him out and the pig was instantly delivered.

Ethan Allen was one of the first in Amer­ica to teach and practice Divine Healing, and was contemporaneous with Dorothea Trudel who labored in Switzerland about the same time.

\.ym. T. McArthur, who was personally acquainted with him, writes of his dosing years :

"The last four years of his Ii fe were spent in California, where he lived in a bungalow which h is son bu ilt for him. An aged rel­ative cared for him, and she said that no matter who \' isited the home or what their business was, she observed that they spoke in hushed tones, as though they felt they were on holy ground. And what \vonder! Behind the draperies sat the silent figure of one who had cultivated an acquaintance with God such as few have eve r known. Given up to die as thirty, he was now at the age o f ninety, no longer able to undertake long

journeys, or to undergo long- fasts, but is still officiating as prie"t in the holi('st of all. Poor, yet making' many rich. \!ld after all, is nOt the richest man in the world he who is on sllch terms of intimac\' with Deity that he can ask what he will an;1 have it done unto him? \\'bat millionaire would not gladly change places with him when the hour has come that must come to e,ery man- when gold itself has lost its purchns­ing power, and only the name of Jesus possesses intrinsic worth!"

11rs. Carrie Judd 110ntgomery of Beulah Heights, Oakland, Calif., was well acquaint­ed with Ethan Allen. He prayed the prayer of faith for )'Ir~. Edward lUix wl1('"n she was healed. 1\lrs. 1\1ix prayed the prayer of faith for 1\Irs. 1fomgomery. And SO he called himself ~lrs. }[ontgomery's "grand­father." Ethan Allen stayed for some t ime at~[ontgomery's Home of Peace in Oak­land.

vessel unto honor, sanctified, and fit for the Master's usc, ready for eve ry good wo rk.

I was talking to Brother \\'ill iams !lot long ago in hi s office and we were looking over the situat ion. Brother Williams is a yery god!y man and he knows things ; he has h is eyes open wide as he travels all over the field, and he knows the Pentecostal min­ist ry. He loves you all and is watching YOll because of his love for you and his anxiety for the movement and the success of the work of God. His position is a wonderful place for a man to occupy as it gives him a viewpoint that is pecl1liar. 'vVe were talking lovingly, sympathetically, about the condi ­tions that are in the movement, and this is one thing that came out in the discussion. Out of his heart he said , "Brother \'\felch, there isn't enough of us now who a re stand­ing solidly for a separated life for the min­istry." An unsanctified ministry wi!! be to b!ame for an unsanctified people. In the interests of the people who are now saved, and those who are coming under your ministry, and people who may be sayed in the future- in the interest of the movement of which you arc a part, and in the interests of the kingdom of God- I charge YOll to be members o f a sanctified ministry.

I have almost finished my course and I may never speak to you again. BLlt I wallt to leave this with you, and I know whereof I speak. You are responsible to God, and to the interests of everyone else concerned, to keep your life clean, to keep yoursel£ separated unto God, and you arc chargea ble to learn how to trust God. 1I0w are you going to go out and tell people how to trust God even unto death, if you do not know how to do it yourself ? T remember how I

Keep where God's ap­proval can ~ on your life, and where you can rightly divide the \Vord of Truth. You need always to study not only yOl1r Bihle but to study also the si tuation bet ween you and God.

Remember that you a rc not ca lled to an ordinary experience. You have actually gone so far that it is up to you to hear one hundred-fold fruitage in yom life. YOli are not a thirty- fold fruit- l>e<lI'Cr. That is not your place. YOIl are not a sixty-fold man, ei ther. You have deliberately taken upon yourself the responsibil ity of heing a hundred-fold fruitage man.

You have my love and my sympathy. I know a lot of troubles that may he your troubles. 1 wish I could impart to eve ry yOtl ng man who comes to this point in Ii f e some of the experiences T have had, but I cannot do it. ¥ou have to go through your­self. You have to take it on and go throug h with God. And you will, won't you? I know you will. I am going to pray for you as long as I li ve. [do not know what the Lord will let me do over yonder. r wonder sometimes how it will be over there, but we shall know when we get over there.

I want to drop this suggestion. I t comes ou t of long experience and a wide olherva­tion. If God really calls a man to the min­istry, there will he a place for him.

RepOrts Timc: "In 1933, the last efTecti\·e ye:lr of the Ver~:lilles-I.('aguc of ~atiolls sy~k1l1, the world's armies numbered 7,000,000 men. its na\·i('s totaled 3,000,000 !(ms, its mil itary planes were 14,-000, and $4,000,000,000 \\"a~ SJlCI1\ to keep the men and machin('~ of war. Pacifists considered these figures pretty horrible. As it turns out they were small potatoes.

"In 1938, the year of ).funich, armies had in­creased to 10,OOO,0(X) 111en, naval tonnage had jump­ed to 8,000,000. 111i1itary planes had possibly trebled in number and $17,000,000,000 went slithering down the gullet of the hungry god of war-to-be. This year, with Russia leading the big parade (U. S. S. R. war budget for 1939 is $8,()()O,OOO, 000), these figures arc again sky-rocketing,"

The old Sadhu had lain all night long where he had fallen in th e evening. Sometime in that long East Indian night he had died.

The people called him "holy," and because of that, they look up a collection to give him a funeral befitting a priest. Every possible honor was secured-a flag, a band, decorations for the stretcher. The procession wound down the road to the ri,·er.

I ask~d an old man wher~ the Sadhu had come from. H~ repli~d that he did not know. I asked where he had in tended to go. Still he couldn't te ll.

FJRST·FRU ITS I N LAVRAS Lawrence O lson writes joyfully of the ac·

complishments of eight months' work in Brazil. Although the O lsons have been occupied with language s tudy chiefly, yet a new work has been opened, and God has blessed through the efforts of a native evangelist.

"At the end of April," writes Brother Olson, " it was our joy to make a week's visit at Lav · ras and baptize the 'first· fruit s' of this new field. During the week, seve nt een followed our Lord through wate r baptism. Besides these, t here were six o th ers already baptized who wished to unite with us, thus bringing our mem­bership to twenty·three, praise the Lord.

Home on Furlough \Vord has just been received from Mr. and

Mrs. J. H. Burgess of th ei r sa fe arrival in Los Angeles. They report tha t after their long te rm of st renuous work and heavy responsibi­lity in Sou th India, they are very weary in body and in need of recuperation. Their little son S ta nley had been quite ill, but at the time they wrote he wa s same better. Vie trust the Lo rd will lay His hand upo n them dur ing their furlough period and strengthen them to return in due tim e to their work on the mi ~siO I1 field.

A Special Need A fine young na tive minister, Jose ph Perriere,

working under the su pervision of Carl F. Graves in Ceylon, has suddenly been left wi th · out support owing to the inabi lity of the fa ith· ful sist er, who has supported him for several yea rs, to continue her help because of ~e vere and prolonged illness. Knowing that this will great ly handicap Brother Graves ilnd the good

and much more eeono· mical in l)Ostal;w and

la bor for liS to send all missiona ry funds to those for whom the money has bern de~if.l"nalcd at a regu lar time each month. On the last day of the month we close off our book~ and mall the checks to our missi('naries ju~t as promptly as poss ible.

T here is alway! a need of unde~i~l1atl':d money since perhaps fi ft y per cent of our mis· sionari es do not have suffi cie nt money ~ent in. designated for them, to cover their needs; and some have no money sent in designated for them, thus depending entirely upon our und esigna ted funds.

It is therefore a great help to us to recewe some undesignated money from every assembly, so th at we can help meet the personal needs of thosc missionari es who lack, a s well as havc some balance to provide furlough fares, to help needy native preachers, to assist in the (feet iog of missiona ry bungalows. Dible $chool buildings, and many oth er needs which arc. constan tl y before us.

A Suggeltion

If you do not have a weekly mi~sionary pray · er meeting in your assembly, we sugges t that this would be a splendid thing to sta rt ; and if any would like to rc=ceivc our monthly prayer pamphlet in quant ities for a local prayer group, just wr ite the Mi !.~ i(ln s Department, 3.Y) \V.

Judge Norton, of Indiana, was a ~ uccessful stOCkman. H is sen'ices were much in demand at state and national live-stock shows. It was said of Judge Norton that hc had the gi ft of "picking the winner." H is skill at "picking thc winner" was no~ COU,fined to the show-ring. He could pick the l>r1ze I)'g, calf, or colt when it was two or three weeks old. \Vhile it often i~ nOt difficult to "pick the winner" in a show-ring, it is quite an ac. complishmelll to do so when it is on, what they call , "the way up." The Judge was able to "pick the winner" before it had had time to show de­velopment.
