Physicians' privilege

Physicians, whom the sick employ in their helplessness, should be models of virtue. They should be wise spir- itual guides to health and hope. To the trem- blers on the brink of death, who understand not the divine Truth which is Life and perpetuates being, physicians should be able to teach it. Then when the soul is willing and the flesh weak, the patient's feet may be planted on the rock Christ Jesus, the true idea of spiritual power.
