PRIVATE JUDO MENT.


a religious contemporary truly re-
marks that Professionalism with its
right OF private judgment" is no longer
striking a universal note. People are
tired Of Inquiry They hate lnvestlga-
ton. They want to be told what is
truth, without having to go and search
for II. Themselves, But our contempor.
ary fails to account for this. And yet
the reason OF II is very plain. Protest.
antism with its right Of private judg-
ment" has very clearly failed to lead
people TO the truth. All the inyestlga-
tlon that has been brought to bear has
not dlacOyered the truth In a great
many Vital questions II has led to
wrarglng about probabilities, and TO as
many churches and sccts as there are
divergent Views. But truth is one, and
can be 10 more, IN any given case. 1t
Is therefore clear, even to child. that
all this investigation, all this liberty OF
opinion, and right to private Judgment
has beeli grand failure Why, then,
should not the people turn away from
this great Protestant idea, and ask for
some authoritative declaration? why
should they not commence looking to
God for revelation Of the truth. that
cannot he found by mere human wis
dom? Very few are equipped, mentally
and Intellectually. for the research that
Is necessary In thevast field OF theology
But all can hear the voice Of the Good
Shepherd and follow Him. The fact,
then, that people are turning away from
the private judgment OF men and look
ing for authoritative declarations of
truth Is good sign. II may give the
false prophets an opportunity TO de-
celve many. But the honest in heart
VIII not be deceived by pretenders. 1t
Is said of the Good Shepherd, that "the
sheep hear His voice. and He calleth
His own sheep by name, and leadeth
them out, And when he putteth forth
his own sheep. he goeth before them.
and the sheep follow him, for they know
his voice. And a stranger they viii
not follow, but will flee from him"
THIS is as true today as at the time
when these golden words fell from the
ups OF cur Savior.
