%O-DAY in every Christian church,
in every Christian land, and, we
trust, ip every Christian heart, is
celebrated the resurrection of the
Lord as Jesus Christ. True and interest
ing as the accounts are of the bodily res
direction, yet, as a matter of history,
they are comparatively of little value to
us sunless they symbolic spiritual things;

part. here and now.
What we have concerning the resurrec-
ton in the Gospels represents the rising
of spiritual goodness in our hearts from
the dead things that oppose. The resur-
rection state-life eternal, angelhood-is
not attained but by the way of Geth-
semane, the cross and the. sepulcher-
through what these words spiritually sig
Nifty.
The four accounts of the resurrection
and the differences in these accounts rep
resent the methods whereby spiritual
goodness orises in cur hearts: the differ
ences are the different processes whereby
men become spiritually minded; which
vary according to hereditary tendencies,
social surroundings, education and the
habits of life. The Lords resurrection
typifles our regeneration. Every little cir

Bob Ingersol does not say that there

that Mary took the child and fled into
Egypt, Luke maintains that the mether.of
Christ carried him to Jerusalem and then
back to Nazareth. Both of these accounts
cannot be true, says IngerSoll.. He thinks
that the Jesus who learned the carpenter
trade in Palestine, and, after teaching for
about three years, offered himself to be
crucified by a few ignorant Jews, could
not be the, God who had created the uni

truth and goodness rising from the dead
things of evil and falsity.
Paul says: 81 countsall things loss for
the excellency Of the knowledge of Christ
Jesus; that 1 may know him and the
power of his resurrection" "In Christ
Jesus l die daily he also said, and from
that death he was daily resurrected into
newness of life. IF We live after the flesh
ye shall die; but if through the spirit ye
do mortify the deeds of the body, We shall
live" So the living, spiritual things we
are to seek are not to be found in the
propensities of the body, the sensual
things of the natural mind, what delights
the eye or the ear, or any of the senses,
but in those things which are risen above
the animal nature and pertain to the prin-
cipfeS of spiritual truth and goodness.
When we have these living things in us
we have eternal or everlasting life; we
are passed from death unto life.
When the Lords spirit is in us-his
spirit of love, which comes into the truth
we obey-he causes us to come up out of
the graves of a sensual life and brings
us into a higher life than the animal.
Then we first become human, made in the
image and likeness of God. His image, as
his truth, IS in our minds, and his like
ness. as his love, is in our hearts. Thus

DO not believe in the deity of Christ
II nor in mira acles" attributed to him
that set aside natural laws Similar
miracles have been recorded of other
great men, so they cannot be good evil
dence of any ones daity. There have been
wonder working men in all nations, and
miracles have been attributed to all OF
them These beliefs are held without
proof as sacred traditions. In the New
Testament it is written, mo man hath
seen God at any time" This is In con-
tradiction TO the Old Testament. in which
many persons claim TO have seen God.
In one instance God came down and ate
roast veal with Abraham; in another he
walked in the garden of Eden until he
found Adam and talked with him.
All things are marvels. A little pool
shows God as truly as the Niagara Falls.
The divine exists in nature and in man
as II did in Christ. Perhaps it does not
differ in kind-only in degree. A stone
shows as much of the divine nature as
it is capable of holding. The Sioux In
dian reveals something of God. as much
as his nature permits. But the capacity
of man to hold and to reveal the divine
nature is constantly increasing. Bibles do
not create religion: religion writes bibles.
Many religions have their Bibles-as sa-
cred to them as ours to us. They are all
inspired in a broad sense of the word.
They represent the aspirations Of man and
the divine element in him; they prove his
upward tendencies; they show that his
nature is essentially religious.
Christ demonstrated this divine nature
by his life to a greater degree than other
men. do not believe that in any of his
works he disregarded those natural laws
which are Gods methods of carrying on
his work. God unfolds himself in an or
derly manner. He works gradually and
through mans comprehensive nature.
Possibilities are latent in all men of ex-
periencing moments of exaltation, of di-
vine inspiration. At these moments Won
ders happen. Some are cured of diseases;
others are converted and forsake evil.
God is infinite power: man, partaking of
his nature, can reveal God; but only
through himself and according to his in
dividual capacity. / do not believe in the
