THE CROSS AND THE CRESCENT.

DR. BARROWs TELLS OF THE POWER AND rRi-
Usrp1Is or MAHOMETANIsM AND cR1Trc1sEs
THE CATHOLIC RELIGION
The second OF the Morse lectures At the Union
Theological Seminary in the course on The Chris
,ian CONQUEST OF Asia was delivered yesterday
by the Rev DR.. John Henry BarIows. who com
pared Christianity and Mahometsnism. He said
that while Christianity numbers among It's nomi-
ma adherents four hundred million OF men. and
may be said 10 rule politically over nearly all ths
word excepting China and the Turkish Empire.
stiu Malone tanism is at present winning some of
the races OF mankind more rapidly than any Of its
rivals and is gaining both ia Asia and africa"
The lecturer ascribed the power o, the rel gion
OF the Crescent TO It's belief In God. and
thought It's conQuests had been AIDED by the East
ern Church and the Roman Church, which, he
said. had surrounded the throne Of Jehovah with
IA crowd OF saints and angels that obscured the
vision OF the one everlasting Jehovah" He also
SAID: 1T is certainly impossible, emphaticaly re-
peat. Tor the Roman Church with is dedication OF
Mary ana with It's varieties o. sem-idOlatry. ever
10 conquer the globe long as ManOmctauism.
with It's teaching OF the spirituality OF God and its
stern uonOth eism, obstructs the way"
In contrast with both systems the lecturer spoke
Of what he termed "a pure Christianity. with God
as our Father IN Heaven" well 'incarnate,
Hgion In which the soul IL saved through faith.
through love through life. through inward holiness.
through the Cross. which IS the great stumbling
block 10 Islam"
