REASONS FOR RErCsISG CHRIST.
Again, this subject suggests 20 me two
/ OF the prominent reasons why people re
/ fuse the kingdom Of Christ There may
/ have been many other reasons Why OrpaA
| left her sister AID mothcr-!n-law and went
back home. but there were two reasons
! which ! think were more prominent than
the rest She had been brought up IN idol
/ atres. She loved the heather gods which
her ancestors had worshiped, and though
these blocks Of wood and stone could lot
/ hear she thought they could hear, and
though they could not see she thought
they could see, and though they could moi
/ feel she thought they could feel. 4 new
religion had been brought 10 her attention
( She had married a godly man. She must
often have he2rd hc~ mother-in-law talk oi
+ in her original belief that she concluded %
leave her idclstries, but coming 10 I'd,
T margin OF the land Of Bethlehem her dc
termination failed her and speedily she re
turned to her gods
This IS tho very reason Why mulEtudes
Of persons never become Christians. They
cannot bear TO give ~ their gods. Bust
ness is the American jugreraaut tha;

/ Hindoos. To il they say their morning
and evening prayers. a little Of Christ's
/ religion may creep into the sabbath. bui

is a sacrifice on the altar Home duties

mortal affections must all burn in this
holocaust Men act a. though they could
take their bonds and mortgages and saws
end troygels and axes and day books with
them into the kingdom Of heaven.
