The leviathan mistake made in this
world is the lazy indulgence of the opin-
ion that all is well. All is not we'll. And
to make it well requires what Demosthe-
mes said was necessary in oratory-"ac-
ton, action, action" 1t takes no incon-
siderable action to save your own soul,
and when you have done this, you will
find an illimitable field of work in your

friends, and on the broad battle-plain of

Besides the Gospels, we have also the
Acts of the Apostles, and the Epistles
and again not one word to indicate what
sort of person Christ was in his appear
ance or about his personal habits, or
about his early years. The apostle John
lived to near the close of the first century
surviving the crucifxion nearly seventy
years; one would have supposed he
would have gratifed our curiosity in some
respect. But we know absolutely moth
ing of the points in question about Jesus.
We have only that exquisite portrait
of the three years of his public life, and
this with all illusions to everything but
his public work omitted.
Not to overstep the modesty of ma
ture.' Not to overstep the metes and
bounds proper to the delineation of the
crucifed Jesus-not to degrade the ma
jesty of the God, not to unloose the fet-
tiers of humanity, this was the difficult
feat which the practically unlettered Gal
lleans and the companions of Peter and
Paul had to perform in writing these
four sketches. No human mind would
have dared to execute such conception;
or surprising this possible to some really
good intellect, no human mind could
have succeeded in such an attempt. If
the Gospels are not inspired, how did we
get them? Gould Plato or Shakespeare
have created such picture-or, if not
they, could Huxley or Herbert Spencer?
These are of the earth, earthly.

TIE I'm THEsT' DISCUSSION

We publish in this weeks paper two
articles on this subject, one from "Frater''
and the other from DIR. Girardeau. 1t
may be well now that "the smoke of bat
tie has been dispersed to calmly survey
the field and see whether in case there
were important points to be settled that
end was gained" None are better quail
flied for this than "Frater" and Dr. Cir
ardeau. They differ however as to what
was accomplished. We think that in the
main DR.. Girardeau's construction of the
action of the Assembly is correct. That
action while it declares that nothing is
law to be enforced by judicial prosecu-
ton, but that which is contained in the
word as interpreted in our Standard"
thereby denying law-making power to
the General Assembly-yet afirms that
the IN theSt deliverances of the Assembly
are authoritative interpretations of the
law. We never regarded the action of
1879, when taken in its entirety, as deny
ing that IN theSi deliverances had author
ity, but as only denying that they had
the authority of laaO. Nor was that ac-
ton liable to the charge of making
every individual or every lower court,
the supreme court, nor of emitting every
church member to walk irresponsibly in
the light of his own eyes" But waiving
the declarations of 1879 as now not ne
cessary to be discussed, we have now the
more explicit declaration of the Assem-
bly, of 1880, which is to the following eff
feet, namely, that the deliverances of the
General Assembly have the authority of
decision of the Supreme Court of the
Church-whose function it is to expound
and declare what is law
If there are any who desire further
treatment of the subject, we will take the
liberty, like DR.. Girardeau, of referring
them to the July number of the Southern
Presbyterian Review, which however we
have not yet seen.

cept through the bedizened splendor Of
stained glass windows, radiant with the
supposed hneanaents of the Apostles. 1t
is not what any Church holds to be the
truth, on this or any subject; but what
is the view of it taken by the Master.
He went to desert place apart, or on
the heights of Oivet, and found in secret
worship the source of all spiritual strength.
He took no recognition of the necessity
OF splendid ceremonies in public worship.
What quiet repast was the Last Sup
per, on that night in which he was be-
trayed. He commands us to seek our
closet, and within its four bare walls pray
to our Father who seeth in secret and
who will reward us openly. But what
shall we say when the great Apostle is
found forgetting the "godly admonition
OF the angel, and actually the second time
falling down before him to worship, (See
Revelations xix: 22), overcome again by
the vision of scenes more extended and
wondrous than before, the same words
recalling him to the consciousness of his
SIM" See thou do 1T not" Worship God.
Oh, the weakness of the human SOUL
" Let him that thinketh he standeth, take
heed lest he fall" There is no essential
religion In any ceremony whatever. Let
us prove this. If all the people on this
globe were engaged in the worship of
God, on the highest scale of ceremony,
except one poor wretch suffering for the
common necessities of life, and not one of
the vast host offered to relieve him, till
Christ himself should appear and minister
to his earthly comfort as well as spiritual
consolation, what He did would be re-
hgion, what the others did would be moth
ing.

THE iSTTUA TON

Jesus said to the Jews, l said there
fore unto you, that we shall die in your
sins; for if ye believe not that I am he,
ye shall die in your sins" Now we know
very well Chat they did not believe on
him, but that they put him to death.
Therefore they must have died in their
sins. This remark applied to the great
bulk of the Jewish people. 1t was not
only the Pharisees but the people who
cried out Cruelty him! cruelty him r.
And after this, on another occasion,
Paul and Barnabas, in consequence OF
the opposition of the Jews, declared: "It
was necessary that the word of God
should first have been spoken to you;
but seeing ye put it from you, and Judge
yourselves unworthy of everlasting life,
10, we turn to the Gentiles."
In signal correspondence with this, a
few years afterwards the city of Jerusa-
lem was rased to the ground, and the
Jewish nation was destroyed, vast null
titude being put to the sword, and the
rest scattered over the face of the earth
where they have still wandered these
eighteen hundred years. This is pro-
phetic of their destruction in the other
world. "Ye shall die in your sins"
Have all the unbelieving Jews who
have lived and died since Christ's words
were uttered "died in their sins?
This is an appalling truth, and it sug-
gests the thought, why shall qoe fare any
better? If the great body of the Jewish
nation who were alive when Christ was
on the earth died in their sins, and if
all the generations with trivial excep-
tions) which have lived and died since,
have also died in their sins" what is to
become of the Gentle nations which re-
Ject Christ to-day? what is to become of
three-fourths Of the responsible population
of the United States? Rose-colored views
are held out Of the mercy of God, but
here is the unmanipulatable declaration
of the Saviour himself, that if ye believe
not that I am he, ye shall die in your
sins 1t is In a great many quarters
deemed little impolite to press this
thought upon well-dressed gentlemen and
ladies now, but what is the use of stop.
ping the ears to plain statement of this
sort? No sophistry can get over it. We
stand on no higher ground than the Jews.
If the Jews die in their sins, why shall
not the Gentiles, if they believe not on
Him2
What then, even in Christian lands is
to become of the men and women who
are alive to-day? Do not the BODY of
the people live without Christ in the
world Can any one avert the execu-
ton Of this decree2
What became of the Canaanites-tbat
old-world type of all incorrigible sinners?
Were they not swept from the face Of
the earth?
But this is hard, it is said. Here you
differ with God. He thinks otherwise
The process Of that court is not stayed
by your objections. Upon those who
will not listen, He "sball rain fire and
birthstone, and a horrible tempest"

New devices for recommending the
gospel have penetrated into the mission
airy fields. The Rev. E. w. Parker, a
missionary at Moradabad, sent home for
a magic lantern, with pictures illustrating
the life of Christ! The Christian Herald
says that fine instrument, with a large
number of pictures, showing the princi-
pal events in the. life of our Lord, was in
due time forwarded to him. The Rev. E.
Cunningham writes that it has been used
with eminent success. Some of the most
respectful, interested, and devout congre-
cations have been assembled in groves at
night, beholding on canvas suspended
from the limb of a giant mango tree that
wonderful series of events commencing
with the manger and ending with the as
cension, and listening to the recital. Men
and women who refused an invitation to
hear the Gospel have accepted an invita-
ton to inspect some pictures.
