the principle Of faith, showing its Of

past and present. We give some Of
tho points made:
"The life Of Enoch was painted out
by the Apostle Is q life Of faith and
yet the writer of Genesis made no
mention Of faith in giving the biog-
raphy of his life. His life pleased
God, and without faith it 10 impossible

between faith and uubelief. We feel
this difference in our association with

The Savior illustrated this when he
spoke of two men praying. One
prayed because it was bis custom;
the other because he believed, and
while the latter's prayer wasn't clothed
