iouS nature appears eXtlnct-a total

otihe religious principle THERE THE IN
TELLECT OF MAN Is ON A LEVEL WITH
THE INSTINCT OF TIE BRUTE BEASTS.
When intelligence is developed to a
very high degree, where art and science
flourish, then the religious principle
shows its greatest strength. it is there
that it shows its vitality and proves that
rcoson and religion flourish together.
The leaders of intidelity generally de
clare that nan is universally religious;
does the inspired word of God deny it?
Does human testimony contradict it?
If men are universally religious does it
look as though God had put His mark
of ownership upon him? Is the perven-
ton of that propensity a proof that man
is I'm his "sins:?n III in his ignorance
man worships ''wood and stone,n does
he need a rere{ntiOn ofhe true G0R If
man prefers to worship the "Golden
Calf" while the mount of God flames,
and smokes. and thunderS in their pres
ence, will their blind devotion save
them? If the corrupt heart of man re-
fuses the true God, stoning the prophet,
killing the missionary, if under the
abundant enlightenment of the Gospel
of Jesus Christ he Stubbornly adheres to
his false God is he s%inless? viii God
hold him guiltlesS?: What if with our
greatest enlightenment Christ be not
risen" and we worship at his cross, are
we not found false witnesses against
God:?n IF Christ be not raised, u

Our reason has betrayed us into greater
sin. If we have no Christ the constant,
universal, increasing suffering of u
race. indicates that we shall perish in
our sins. If it could be demonstrated
that Christianity is Pa@anism it would
be demonstrated that we are yet in our
sins. If we have sinned-who is with
out SIN? IfGod, is Il God of love. can
it not be demonstrated that Christianity
