THE RESURRECTION.
The light OF Chrlst's awakening
on every tomb is shed
And bids us seek our living
No more amid the dead.

The light OF Chrlst's awakening
ON every tomb Is shed,
And bids us seek our living
No more amid the dead.
The Corinthian Christians were In
serious dOctrinal error. Some among
them were saying, There is no res
surrection of the dead" But their
offense may almost be condOned. 1t
led to the writing of this resurrec--
tion chapter, containing mastertul
statement, illustration ana delehse
of the doctrine. Honey came OUT ol
the eater.
The heart of Paul's creed is here.
It is: "Christ died for sin. he rose,
again" Renan, in his 'Apos les,
afhrms that ''the nervous ilnaglna-
tion of one woman MARY Magda-
lene) has changed the state OF the
world 1t seems, however, from
Paul's account, that there were some
men also possessed of nervous M
aginations-five hundred of them,
in fact! Besides these witnesses,
most of whom are still living, Paul
summons Peter and James, and
then the entire company OF the apos-
ties. And finally he makes his per-
sonal deposition. This testimony
would be considered unlmpeachapie
in any court. If it can be discred-
tied, then any page of history can be
dlscredited by the same methods.
Christs resurrection having been
0tnhIiSbed nv the APOSTLES argu-
,ment II is next affirmed to be the
~ s'rI, nntac,edant of which the general res
