THE PREACHING OF PAuL.--"I speak
the worIs of soberness," said Paul.
And preach the Gospel "not with the
enticing words Of mems wisdom" This
was the way Of the, apostles discoufsing
Of things sacred. Nothing here of the
tringes af the north star; nothing Of the
doom Of angels so,nss, or the beautiful
locks Of cherw6ims; no starched simili.
tudes, introduced with "Thus have
seen cloud rolling in its airy mansion" {"
and the like. No these were sublima.
ries above the rise Of the apostolic spirit.
For the apostles, poor mortals were con.
ten, to take lower steps, and to tell the
world in plain terms, that he who be.
lieved should ne saved, and he who be.
lieved not should be damned" And this
was the dialect which pierced the con-
science, and made the hearers cry out.
"Men and brethren what shall we do?"
1t tickled not the ear, but sank into the
heart; and when men came from such
simile, or the quain.ness Of subj Sen.
tence; but they spoke like men conquer.
Cd by the overpowering force and evi.
dence Of the most concerning truths;
much in the words Of the two disciple
going to Enannus, "Did no. our hearts
burn within US, while he opened 10 US
the Scriptures!"-Dr. South.

And at it they went. ten 10 one on the

for free fight, but the beligerents did
not como to the point Of shells and
bricks, except perhaps few Of the. lat.
