fault
Full worthy was our Lord to be
our Savior and to receive our trust
and faith. The beauty Of His mes
sage and His life are past compare.
Nowhere do we find another such a
man. On His divine side He is su-
preme. AS a man He is the manifes-
tation of the humanity of God. Christ
not only spake things but lived them.
The spirit of alteration that bound
the twelve to Jesus should make us
learn to love Him more. Entering
into union within Him we may pro-
gress into faultlessness and grow in
wealth of grace and the knowledge
Of the truth.
DR.. Parkhurst has said true word
when he calls attention to the fact
that "Christians grow by addition,
not by subtraction. When first we
think upon it the statement seems
to be but half the truth. But do we
consider for moment we will find 1t
fair. The accretion by the Christian
of spiritual power will drive sin out.
There will be no room Tor evil. Inc
life that is drawing close to God has
no need to subtract sin. Let the
heart pay strict attention to the work
of soul culture and Satan will sub
tract himself. Most of us spend so
much time in subtraction that We
never learn 10 add. Keep increasing
the measure Of soul force that is
yours and sin will make itself a
minus quantity. Try to do what you
know you ought to do and you will
ind the problem of how to escape
sin is lightened of itself.
All things in the last analysis must
be brought to the test Of Jesus
Christ. He is our Savior and our one
example. He is the test of our 1T
ness and the pattern for our faith.
His grace may be ours; the appropri-
alton of His truth is the business OF
the Christian. The vigor of our grace
and truth is the measure of assured
success. Our faultlessness will be
Judged of men and God by the sam
Dles we are of the influence OF the
life and word, the truth and grace OF
Christ.
