the proof in favor of the resurrection
of Christ was so overwhelming that
he could not reject it without doing

that he could not be loyal to the de-
mands OF a healthy reason and re-
jeot it. When the two friends met
to compare notes they were ready to
worship Him whoss religion they had
sought TO discredit. Their argu-

investigates and draws fair conclu-

not fail to convince the earnest seek
