The divine heal-all

From Spurgeon's, PREACHING CHRIST CRUCIFIED In the olden times, there were certain simpletons who sought after a universal remedy for all diseases; a "heal-all"; but their search was in vain. All the advertisements of quack medicines that ever deceived silly people will never convince sensible folk that such a "heal-all" for all the diseases to which flesh is heir ever has been or ever will be discovered. Yet there is a catholicon for the diseases of the soul, and that "heal-all" is Christ. Be your disease what it may, - the raging fever of lust, the shivering ague of doubts and fears, or the fell consumption of despair, - Jesus Christ can heal you. Whatever form sin may take, - whether it be the blind eye, or the deaf ear, or the hard, stony heart, or the dull, seared conscience, - there is a medicine in the veins of Jesus that we may well call the divine heal-all. No case that was ever submitted to Christ has baffled his skill. He is still "mighty to save."
