destined to become valuable as one of the
most perfect descriptions of the Worlds

TorIc-Faith in Jesus Christ What is il,
Rom. iii, -; Eph iii. Il 2l
Faith is one of the most important ele-
ments Of Christianity. 1t is constantly
emphasized in the Scriptures Christians
are enjoined to walk by faith, to be
saved by faith, TO overcome the world by
faith and to win the victory over death
and the grave by this same faith In Je-
Sus Christ 1t Is not without reason that
we may have this for our topic and
that we may be protited and benefited by
1t as such. Let us notice in reference to
faith In Chr;-t
|. The character of faith in Christ. In
Rom. Iii, 90. we are told that the right
eousness Of t;ol is not through the law,
but by fast nd in Eph. iii, II, Paul
prays that '-t m III in the hearts
Of the Coriut.lus But what
is this faith III tu.ist does so much
and is Of 50 laEal imp. ince? Briefly
and plainly, il embraces two factors I.
A belief IN CHRIST as Gods son and tho
only one who i able to save fallen man.
This is simrlya n'ntal acceptation Of all
the historic.,i facts concerning .Jesns
Christ as the Saviour Of the world This
is the first Step il faith. but this is not
saving faith 4 man may believe all
this and vet not be saved, "Thou be-
lievest that there is one God" says
James; ''thou doest we'll. the devils also
believe AMI treinblc." Mental belief Is
not enough. There is ono step more 10

lieve that the rope thrown out TO him ia
able to save h,,n. but that belief will not
save him. II" r.uSt actually lay hold OF
tho rope if H. would be saved. ?. This
then is the seyoud step or element in
