why the question is propounded by our
correspondent
The answer Is, yes, certainly; such a
prediction as that couched In the
words quoted from Isaiah by our
Savior could be fulfilled many
times That language is pertinent to
people In any age or country VINO are
mere Journalists, worshiplng with their
lips and not in their hearts, teaching
for divine doctrine the precepts and no
tons and opinions OF men; Having a
form Of godllness but denying the
power thereof" The hypocrite, the
pretended servant of God who mumbles
out prepared petitions that he may be
heard and seen Of men, but has no real
devotion or obedience In his soul, full
fills the words OF Isaiah and comes UNI
der the condemnation OF Christ. no mat
ter where or when he lives and thus
makes a burlesque on true religion.
BY reading the entire chapter In
isaiah In which that denunciation APP
pears, II will be found that while this
part Of II was applicable to the hypo-
critics Of Christs time on earth, there
are prophecies connected herewith
that were not fulfilled until the OPEN
ing OF the latter-day dlspensatlon. and

self should be delivered TO the un-
learned, when a marvellous work and
wonder should be performed, and
the deaf in that day shold hear the
words Of the book" It Is evident that
he period when these events should
Iccur In fuhlment Of lsalah's predlc-
ion, was to be long after the days Of

people were frequently excited by word
pictures In which sinners, and even in
nocent Infants were painted as
burning boiling and sizzling In lakes Of
