SPIRITUAL MEANS OF HEALING.

REPORT BY CLERGY AND

DOCTORS.

The report of the Committee appointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, in accordance with resolution 6 of the Lam- beth Conference, 1990, *** to comider and report as early as possible upon the use with prayer of the Laying on of Hands. of the action of the Sick, and other spiritual ments of healing," was publish ed on Jaguary Sth by the Society for Pro moting Christian Knowledge, in a pam phlet entitled The Ministry of Heal- ing.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES,

As a result of their deliberations, the Committee lay down the following general principles:-

-The chief work of the Church in regard to disease is: (a) To develop in all its members a right attitude of con fidence, love, and understanding towards God and to train them to approach all questions of disease both for themselves and for others in this spirit. (6) To bring together thoa who care for the soul and those who care for the body in co operation. (e) To insist on hygiene and plain living as part of the ordinance off God.

2. The Church must sánction methods of religious treatment of bodily disease, but in doing so must give fall weight to the scientific discoveries of those who are. investigating the interrelation of spirit, mind, and body.

3.It is not the furetion of the Church to apply its means of "restoration if no higher end is sought than the recovery of bodily health. Indeed, to do this would gravely compromise the meaning and pur- pose of the Church's rites and sera- ments. Nek person must look to the clergyman to do what it is the physician's or surgeon's duty to da

4-Whatever the means employed by the Church. emphasis should be laid upon the primary purpose of deepening the eds of frilowship with God secured for 2 in Jesus Christ. Whether the sick person throw off the sickness or not, the work of the Church will have been effec tive if he has thereby found truer peace of spirit and a more real knowledge of the uplifting presence and power of Christ.

SUGGESTIONS.

With regard to the Form of Ministry to be used, we make the following sugges- tions:-

(a) For purposes of healing, prayer aad Sacrament should be used in conjune- tion. Before any sacramental rites are employed, earnest and united prayer should be offered on behalf of the sick person in church as well as by the patient himself and his friends at home.

(b) Whilst religious methods are applie able to all ons of aickness, they would seem to be most appropriate where moca! intellectual difficulties and perplexities have contributed to the disorder. These deep-lying roots of evil should be dealt with before any specifically bodily heal ing is attempted: otherwise we shall be in danger of dealing with symptoms and neglecting cause; in which case no thorough or permanent eure can be hoped for. This preliminary treatment requires somn pal kousledge not only of moral theology, but also of psychology: so that it is desirable that clergymen who' give spiritual direction should be adequately trained and so enabled to give clear and practical guidance. In this preliminary treatment an opportunity should be given to the patient to make a special confes sion of his sin, and the priest shall absolve him if he should humbly and heartily desire" it.

(e) Then might follow treatment morn immediately directed to the complete re- toration of the patient. This may take the form of netion (Ar.. anointing with oil by a priest), or of the Laying on f Hands (either by a priest or a lay-per-. son), or of both. These rites have scrip tural antherity-[For Unction, St. Mark. vi 13; St. James, v., 14; for Laring cu of Hands, St. Luke. iv., 40, Et. Malt, viij., 3: St. Mark; v., 23; (xvi, 15); Acts, ix., 17]-nod are sacramental in the sense that a blessing is sought and prestr ed through the performance of outwardl and visible actions." The motive with which they are used is the dedication of the bodily life of the patient to God's Will; and the blessing received will he either restoration of health or grace to bear sicknese patiently.

(d) The whole treatment will ead up- propriately with the patient's reception of Holy Communication, through which both body and soul are to be praetcrd unto querlasting life"

The "Committee add

Iriart

There are, of course, other method- of procedure, Somastimes prayer may he used alone in privato gathering of the patient's friends. Sometimes, ngkin, a special gift of healing seems to be bestow- rd on a particular person, where there is little or no corporate action of the Church. We hold that the licensing of individual healers or the official recog nation of healing societies by ecclesiastical authority in nasowary and at prosent impracticable. We adopt the opinion ex- pressed by our sub-committee that much good might be done by the appointment of a permanent committee of clergy, doctors and psychologists to adrise the these authorities of the Church on matters.

The report is followed by "Forms of Servico auggested for use at the Anoint- ing of the Sick." These forms are that in the First Prayer-book of King Edward VI.; and that in "A Prayer-book Revised"
