Theodore Parker, it is woven into lis-
erature, ard coiors the talk OF the street
and John Milton, - there are no sonSs
comparable to the songs OF Zion, no ora
tions equal TO those OF the prophets, aud
no politics like those the Scriptures teach
And yet, the Bible was not written to keep
men from forming vulgar style; to educate
them; to be woven into literature, and to
color the talk Of the street; it was not
written to provide for men model songs
and ordtions, or to give them lessons IN
civil government. Judging it by what it
does, 1t was written to reveal God 10 man,
and brinE man back to God.
And this which the Bible seems made for
is its crowning glory. II is something tha6
men Of genius In all ages bring their glory
and honor an d lay at its feet. But it Is al
most infinitely more that the Scriptures
have the power of Addressing men Of all
nationalities, of every grade ana type Of
civilization, ON their own plane; OF meeting
them where their wants are greatest, and
yet are alike and OF taking them from that
point OF degradation, and giving theEi
fellowship with GOD; making themliEe God;
constituting them co-workers with Him in
His work of redeeming the world 70 Hin
self, and then making them partakeTs
OF His eternal glory. This is what the Bible
does. Thus it stands before the world. y

hood of God an orb, written all over with
