proclaims the grace Of God; but grace
rests on law. If there were no law there
would be no grace. The grace of God

Disobedience caused the cross To-day
there is great need of an earnest endea-

law of God. When the law was preached
by our fathers great revivals followed.
Convictions accumulated until commun-
tiles as a mass were moved to repent
ance and impelled to the fountain God
has opened for sin and uncleanliness.
A very large proportion of the noblest
Christian men who have been a bless

says the New York Evangelist" Pres.).
Sometimes it is tried to build up new
church, and sometimes to put in power
a new political party. But the mOmen-
tum gained by thus tampering with un-
known forces tends towards revolution
ary extremes and touches the verges of
disastrous ruptures in society. Reckless
measures to reach an immediate result
having small regard for remoter conse-
uuences are taken with a haste and
eagerness that are almost sure to bring
on a catastrophe. Sooner or later the
evil declares itself, usually at time
when a backward step Is impossible.
Precautions must be prompt and timely;
for mistakes harden into permanence
by delays and timidity."
