been the basis OF all Christian legislation
Tor nearly 2.0o0 years, and continue 20
be the light and guide OF hundreds OF
millions OF souls. We are indebted 20
this divine legislator for the Christian
civilization that rules the destinies OF
Europe. North and South America. Aus
tralia. and large portions Of Asia and
Africa. Neither Solon nor Lycurgus. nor
Justinian nor Napoleon. nor any other
framer OF laws averted a tithe OF the
influence which The Gospel or Christ ex-
ercises on the human race. And there IS
10 subject which He treats mere fully
and clearly than The question Of marri-
age. which Is the very foundation stone
OF our family and social Efe. In three
OF the gospels He prOclaims the unity OF
marriage. I don't see why a law which
