About Creeds.

We are not ready yet TO formulate a creed.
Men have not lived long enough yet. III you do
not understand the philosophy OF man how can
you understand the philosophy of Godf Ii l say
that God is just and never have a consciousness
of Justice | say nothing-it is darkness. There
are one or two things that should be under
stood by these creed makers before they begin.
Are they going to work with their backs toward
the past and their faces toward the future, or
with their faces toward the past and their backs
toward the future? Are they also going TO take
into their confidence men who are devoutly scien-
tifc Are they going to give expression to tie
views of such men? Are they going to give ex-
preston to the views Of men whose beliefs are
obtained from the manuscript OF rocksE Are
they going to cay that the Bible is inspired, and
leave men ts stink through the Bible and make
out it's meaning AZ best they can =? Men read
about Noah's drunkenness they read Davld
implicatory psalms; they read narratives Oh 'he
terrible worldliness and anImalism of man, ana
they interject with their reading n superstition oil
the Divine origin of Scripture and they are con-
fused. Is this committee going to meet the
exigencies of this Teticent thought? Is II to Dol
creed that Is going to subsidize the englnery oil
religion for religion itself? or is there to be a
creed that will set forth the inner and spiritual
life of man? To-day n man may come in to the
communion table who yesterday was rocking
with oaths and proiane explosives, if he has only
said his prayer this morning and said he was
sorry for it. A man may be very wicked before
God, and the kingdom OF heaven may not have
shone, even upon the battlementso OF his nature and
yet such a man may come in to the communion.
| may live a life like Christ, but if | denied the
forensic theory of the atonement and | substituted
in the place of it n Scriptural fact, | should be
called to account by the churches as a dangerous
man. Is there ever to be a statement OF a creed
that shall be founded upon a holy life?
L do not know what they are going to do. l
know what is going to be done. | am sure that
more and more as the years go on, as virtue
grows purer, as it does upon the world, as
philanthropy grows larger and nobler. as It does
grow; as benevolence takes upon itself cosmical
proportions, as the moral elements in man grow
larger and larger, the old scholastic statements of
creed have got to 60 up. That there are to be
new statements of truth in which the marrow OF
religion, conduct and character are TO 90 on and
develop themselves is certain. We are come To
the time when we are to have the mind Of Christ,
and that mind Of Christ shall be the only thing.
Christian character will come then in the way Of
elective afinitics between God and goodness. You
cannot establish beauty and men not admire IL.
In churches-I don't care what the creed is-the
true creed Of any church is the way in which it's
members live, and then no weapon that is formed
against it shall prosper.-Erfract from a sermon
Of ReU III. w. Beecher.
