John Oss

J. Dewitt Fox
If the clergy looked upon the convert in the light in which a doctor looks upon his patient, I feel sure a different approach would often be used, and perhaps a larger patient list might be brought to our churches.

Daniel H. Kress
The promise to ancient Israel was, "If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in His sight, and wilt give ear to His commandments, and keep all His statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee." Ex. 15:26. Although this promise was given to God's people anciently, it likewise applies to His people for all time.
