Excerpt from The Secret of Power: And Other Sermons "And when He had called unto Him His twelve disciples, He gave them power against unclean spirits to cast them out." That same power was bestowed, too, on the wider circle of the seventy who returned again with joy, saying, "Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through Thy name." The ground of it was laid in the solemn words with which Christ met their wonder at their own strength, and told how He "beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven." Therefore had they triumphed, showing the fruits of their Master's victory, and therefore had He a right to renew the gift, in the still more comprehensive promise, "I give unto you power - over all the power of the enemy." What a commentary on such words this story affords! What has become of their supernatural might? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
