Ottawa—Preliminary tests with a
view to would -wide broadcasting on

macre by the British Broadcasting Cor-
poration twice daily. The tests are
being carried on not so much with the
intention of supplying the individual

careful tests of the strength of the
signals as they are received from day

AND HEALING.
INTRODUCTION Jesus,calledasSon
of God, now appears in Galilee, and
enters upon the career to which his
heavenly Father has called him. Hew"
was he to work out this heavenly
calling? We shall find that every-
where Jesus interprets it to mean the
life of perfect trust and obedience. 'He
is to speak the Father's words, to do
the Father's will The Spirit of God
with him and within him is the source
of the wisdom and power with n4iich
he- acts. Consequently, when men
listen to Jesus in the synagogue, they
are astonished at the difference be -
teen him and the ordinary teachers
of religion. He speaks with the
"authority" of one who knows God,
and who lays a strange spell upon the
hearts and minds of men.
In healing, also, Jesus is inspired
by direct faith in his heavenly Father's
will. He knows it to be the Father's
will to save men's minds and bodies
from evil, physical as well as spiritual.
Consequently, he comes forward as
healer, and inspires in every kind of
sufferer an extraordinary faith. Thus,
both in preaching and in healing, he
shows himself in Mark's pages as the
strong Son of God, with whom begins
the overthrow of Satan's grip upon
the lives of men.
L THE AUTHORITY OF Jesus' TEACHING,
21, 22.
V. 21. Capernaum, near the north-
west shore of the Lake of Galilee, is Peter,- inspiring in her the faith to be of comfort out of this attractive and "There will be only one anguage in

wlrosn Jesus has come to destroy, that
is, to send to the perdition reserved
for Satan and his agents. He wants
to get away from Jesus, whose holi-
ness 'condemns hint.
Vs. 25, 26. But Jesus will not thus
let him go. He feels that this is a. case
where the power and love of God are
challenged, and he acts accordingly..,
He. knows it to be the will of God that
this poor creature should be delivered
from his haunting terrors and 'ob
sessions. He seeks, therefore, to calm,
and compose his disordered mind'.
Such is the meaning of the words: "He
rebuked him." Then Jesus commands
the demon to leave the man. This is
to produce in his mind the `faith that
the cause of his terror is gone., Iteliei
ensues in a violent convulsion, after
which the sufferer; is found exhausted,
but calm and in his right mind.
Vs. 27, 28. The impression produced
by this exorcism is very marked, and
once again the people are led to speak.!
of, the extraordinary "authority" of
Jesus. Now, however, it is not merely
the truth of Jesus' teaching'which im-
presses them, but his psychical power
over evil spirits. Hence, a wide dif-
fusion of his fame as a healer through-
out Galilee.
