must show you that, instead of Chris
tianity falling back, it is on the march,
and that the coming religion of the
world is to be the religion of the Lord
Jesus Christ ten thousand times in
tensifed. 1t is to take possession OF
everything-of all laws, all manners,
all customs, all cities, all nations 1t
is going to be SO mighty as compared
with what it has been, so much more
mighty that it will seem almost like a
new religion.
/ adopt this theory because Chris
tianity has gone on straight ahead, not
withstanding all the bombardment,
and infidelity has not destroyed a
church, or crippled a minister, or rooted
out one verse of the Bible, and now
their ammunition seems to be pretty
much exhausted. They cannot get
anything new against Christianity. and
if Christianity has gone under the bonn
bardment of centuries and still contin-
ues to advance, may we not conclude
that as the powder and shot OF the
other side seem to be exhaus ted. Chris
tianity is going on with more rapid
stride?
/ find an encouraging fact in the
thought that the secular press in this
day and the pulpit seem harnessed in
the same team for the proclamation OF
the gospel. Now, on Monday morning
and Monday evening the secular press
spreads abroad more religious truth
than ali the tract societies of the coun-
try spread in the other six days. Bless
