Perhaps it has not been sufficiently
considered what effect the study of
history as now conducted is likely to
have upon the future of religion, says
The Christian Register" (Unit) of
Boston. AT first this study makes
sad havoc among crowd of venerable
traditions that have obtained credence
in the church, without much TO show
for themselves under close critical ex-
animation. But, as this study pro-
ceeds, we find ourselves drawn into
closer and more friendly relations with
the life of earlier generations: and a
new respect is born in us for the souls
that have labored with the great prob
lens of existence throughout the past.
We discover that this life of the past
is also our teacher and not merely that
life which speaks through the whim, or
passion, or prejudice of the passing mo-
ment. The sure result of the study of
history, which was never before so
searching and dispassionate, will be,
not only to separate and discredit the
fabulous element from the records of the
past but to bring into new prominence
the deeper permanent elements of Chris
tian faith. We hear much talk of dam
aged phraseology,' and of a religion
that speaks the language of the day
But, after all, religion has it's classics.
which neither can't nor slang, nor par
ody can spoil; and these are sure to
be lifted into new dignity in the DAYS
