A thousand voices come up TO me
this hour, saying: do you really think
intidelty will succeed? Has Christi
anity received its deathblow? and will
the Bible become obsolete?" Yes,

the same sun. the same lumiGery, as
when at the beginning il shot gu, like
an electric spark from Gods finger, and
to-day it is warming the nations, and
to-day it is gliding the sea. and to-day
it is filling the earth with its light.

though its light steps 190,000,00O miles

light made up of the violet, and the in
digo, and the blue. and the green, and
the red. and the yellow. and the orange
the seven beautiful colors, now just
as when the solar spectrum first di-
vided them.
J At :l,c beginning God said: Let
there be light" and light was, and light
is. and light shall he. So Christianity
is rolling on, and it is going to warm all
nations, and all nations are to bask in
its light. Men may shut the window
blinds so they cannot see it, or they may
smoke the pipe of speculation until
they are Swallowed under their own
vaporing. but the Lord God is the sun.
This white light of the Gospel made up
of all the beautiful cOlors of earth and
Heaven-yiolet plucked from amid the
spring grass, and the indigo of the
southern jungles, and the blue of the
skies, and the green of the foliage, and
the yellow of the autumnal woods, and
the orange of the southern groves, and
the red of the sunsets. All the beauties
of earth and Heaven brought out by
this spiritual spectrum. Great Britain
is going to take ali Europe for God.
The United States are going to take
America for God. Both of them to-
gethcr will take all Asia for God. All
three of them will take Africa for God.
