The Christ Force, also know as the 203rd Force, is a method of forcing a card while the deck is in the spectator's hand. It was developed by Henry Christ and described first in Sh-h-h-h---! It's a Secret, page 41, written by Ted Annemann in 1934.
It requires a doubled-backed card and was called the 203rd force after Ted Annemann thought he covered ever conceivable force in his book 202 Methods of Forcing.
This inspired the Cut Deeper Force, which uses a normal deck.
