ARGUMENT FOR CHRISTIANITY
An Argument for the Truth Of Chris
tianity. In Series of Discourses. By
Rev. /. D. Williamson, d. D. 16mo.
252 pages. 30 cents.
This is a series of thirteen discourses
in defense of the fundamental doctrines
of the Christian religion. Among the
themes presented are the following !:
Power and Wisdom of Cod, Divine Be-
nevolence, Government Of God, Rewards
and Punishments, Resurrection Of the
Dead, Objections to the Gospel Consid-
cred, etc. The argument running through
the several chapters is model Of state
ment and is very finely enforced and
illustrated. The popular objections of
the unbeliever are considered ina candid
spirit, and their fallacy exposed, with the
result to strengthen Christian faith and
to show that Christianity is religion of
reason when properly interpreted and
understood. This little volume is mine
of wealth for those who would study
Christianity apart from the traditions Of
the old faith. Several editions have been
printed since it's first publication; but the
volume will be substantially new to many
readers, it having been out of print for
over fifteen years. Address orders to

was written, to the holy and righteous, though
persecuted, Christians, and their filthy and
unrighteous pagan and Jewish prosecutors.
1t gives no countenance whatever to the dog
ma of mo change after DEATH" or that final
destiny is determined by the fxedness of
character at death, or even the tendency of
character to final permanence" in good or
evil.
The words are here at all because the au-
thor thinks of the moral effects, possible or
actual, of the revelations he has made upon
the men whose destiny they reveal. If the
wicked prosecutors and filthy idolators still
repel every warning and persist in their in
EQUITY, let them go onto their destruction.
So let the righteous hold on steadfastly in
their righteousness despite OF persecution
unto blood; for the retribution Of both parties
is at hand. 81 come quickly" I bring my
reward for both friend and foe-"To every
man as his work shall be-" Perhaps the
passage has a shade of bearing of this sort:
Although the wicked should persist In their
prosecutions and denominations despite of
these fearful warnings, yet let not the right
eous be dismayed or tempted to apostacy;
but let them still abide in their integrity and
wait for the hour of retribution-so near at
hand! The passage has been supposed by
some to teach that death fixes the character
and therefore the destiny of all men, bad or
good, unchangeably. All feel authorized to
say as to the bearing of our passage upon
this doctrine is that it seems to assume that
the wicked men here thought of (he perse-
cutors and idolators who figure prominently
in this book will persist in their iniquity and
therefore will meet their just doom. But the
precise point asserted and the argument
made must be construed as above, the de-
mands of the context requiring this construc-
ton. The looming" contemplated in verse
AZ is manifestly the retribution predicted in
this book upon corrupt Judaism and idola-
trous Paganism-both of which at the date
of this book were historically near.-Cotvles,
"The Revelation of John, with Notes."
For a more comprehensive discussion and
illustration of the proper Interpretation and
meaning of verse IL, see Whittemore's Com
mentary.

The INVITATION.

In chapter xxi. the redeemed and triumph
ant Church, under the symbol of magnif-
cent celestial city, is represented as a bride
waiting for the arrival of her betrothed. At
verse II of our Lesson the figure is changed
from simile to a metaphor, and the bride
is represented as calling to her betrothed to
come to the marriage. The bride is the
Lambs wife xxi. 8, 10). The Church is rep
resented as anxiously waiting and desiring
the predicted speedy looming of the Lord"
The passage may represent the church's re-
sponse-the prayer of the Spirit in the Church
to the declaration, "Behold, l come quick
ly;" crying with the Revelator himself, "Even
so, come, Lord JESUS" (20). Let him that
heareth the cry become a true believer and
join in the prayer. Let the thirsty come.
The wants of the soul for the spiritual bless
ings of Christianity are recognized. And
whosoever will let him enter the city and
partake freely of the food and drink of life.
The blessings of the Gospel so freely offered
to all, and the desire of the Church to extend
its blessings, may be represented. The dra-
matte form of the passage is probably an al
fusion to the custom of the caravan when
seeking water in the desert.
"Come." 1 have heard that in the desert
when the caravans are IN want OF water they
are accustomed to send on a camel with its
rider some distance in advance; then after a
little space follows another; and then at short
intervals another. AS soon as the first man
finds water, almost before he stoops down to
drink, he shouts aloud, "Come" The next
one hearing the voice repeats the word,
"Comer' while the nearest again takes up
the cry, "Comei" until the whole wilderness
echoes with the word, "Come!" So in that
verse the Spirit and bride say, the first of all,
"Comep' then let him that heareth say,
"Comep' and whosoever is athirst let him
come, and take of the waters of life freely

to discover and declare the true interpreta-
tions thereof DEMONSTRATION and misin-
depreciation may be as calamitous and
blameworthy as omission and Interpolation.
The spirit of Johns admonition may apply
to Christian teachers to-day, who. by chang
ing their significance, would make the proph-
ecies of this book mean more or less than,
and different from, what the Spirit intended.
Before the art of printing, and when depend
ence was had upon copyists to multiply books,
such solemn admonitions as verses II, IL con-
tain were not uncommonly appended by an
author to his writing.
Iraneus ended one of his books with the
words: 81 adjure you, copyists of this book,
by the Lord JESUS CHRIST, and by his glorI-
GUS coming to judge the quick and the dead,
that you compare and carefully correct your
copy by this examplar and likewise place this
ADMIRATION in your copy."-Canon Forrar.

The PURE WORD.

John was careful to guard his writing
against corruption. He had made a revela-
ton of things necessary to be known for the
comfort and guidance of the Church during
the period of its peril, and the calsmities
that were soon to occur in the world under
divine providence and Judgment. To change
the record of the revelation, and to make the
sum of the predictions and warnings-the
signs of the coming judgment-more or less,
would be to imperil the believers. Whoever
did this wilfuliy and purposely was an enemy
of the Church and of the truth, and could
have no share in the promised blessings con-
tanned in the book for all the faithful, but
would suffer the threatened judgments upon
the wicked. We need to know and preach a
pure Gospel. The friends of Christianity
should not only be careful to maintain an IN
corrupted record of its Book of Revelation
the Holy Scriptures, but should be studious

The HEAVENLY CRY.

The establishment and permanency of
Christianity is symbolized in the Revelator's
vision xxi. by the holy city, New Jerusalem.
descending from GoD out of heaven, adorned
as bride prepared for her marriage and wait
ing the coming of her husband. The taber-
nacle of COP is declared to be with men with
whom He will dwell and make them His peo
pie, and wipe away all tears: land there shall
be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying;
neither shall there be any more pain" The
former things will have passed away and all
things become new. The city as described
was magnificent and extensive, the pride and
glory of all the earth. The blessings of Chris
tianity were described by river of water of
life, which issued from the throne of GoD
and the Lamb, and flowed through the street
of the celestial city, on either side of which
grew trees of life which yielded crop of
fruit every month, and whose leaves were
medicine for the nations (xxii. 10y. The
river and trees of life we're evidently bor-
rowed from Ezekiel Xvii. LIP, where they
are employed to symbolic the blessings of
the Messianic age. Jerusalem, the holy city
of the Jewish religion, no doubt suggested
the imagery by which to symbolic the re-
newed Israel of COP, the kingdom of the
Messiah, the kingdom of heaven in the earth
the triumphant Church of CHRIST. Only
the holy may enter the city and enjoy its d.
vine blessings. The required purity of heart
and life to fit one for the joys and expert
ences of Christianity, is symbolized by clean
robes (see last Lesson Study. The Common
Version has edo his commandments" instead
of "washed their robes" There is divers
ity in the manuscripts. The Revision is con-
formed to the Oldest and best accredited.
But they that do the will of GoD are the en-
lightened and purified, and have the divine
fellowship (see John iii. and Lesson and
Study for Nov. 21). Without the city, bowling
like the undomesticated dogs around Orien-
tai cities, are the idolatrous, the wicked and
the debased. These do not enter into eter-
nal ife-the experience and blessing of Chris
tianity, but are shut out of the kingdom
by their character and conduct, and go away
into everlasting punishment-the Divine dis
cipline incident to the reign of heavenly
truth and righteousness in the earth and
among men. To dwell in the celestial city,
to become citizen of the kingdom of
heaven, to be truly a Christian in heart and
life, is to enjoy light and life and blessed
ness. Without is weeping and wailing and
gnashing of teeth"-symbols of spiritual
restitution and wretchedness.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1886-12-11
The JUDGMENT.

The Book of the Revelator's prophecies
it announced were near at hand. "Behold,
I come quickly" said JESUS, the alpha and
omega, the root and the offspring of David,
the bright, the morning star, "and my re-
ward is with me, to give to every one as his
work is" This is undoubtedly the same
coming and judgment that is described in
Matthew xvi. q and xiv. 30-xxv. 1t was a
Judgment of the nations, when those who
had favored Christianity were honored, and
those who had rejected it and hindered its
progress were debased and severely punished,
when the elect we're to be assembled from the
extremities of the earth, and all the tribes of
the earth should mourn. This Judgment is
described in the scene of the Revelator's
vision contained in chapter Xxx. IL. 1t was
to occur suddenly and unexpectedly and be
decisive. When it occurred all must abide
its decisions. When the Revelator wrote his
symbolic message to the churches it was near
at hand. Those who persisted in their wick
edness would suffer the fate of the wicked;
and those who were righteous and faithful,
even amidst persecution and death, would
surely receive the rewards of righteousness,
and righteous retribution would not be long
delayed. "He that is unrighteous, let him do
unrighteousness still: and he that is filthy, LET
him be made filthy still: and he that is right
eous, let him do righteousness still: and he
that is holy, let him be made holy STILL"
