Bishop Thoburn's Warning.

The whole tropical world is rapidly
coming under the control of nations
which profess to be Christian in a
high acceptance Of that word. 1t is,
in my opinion, one of the most i'm
portant questions of the day, whether
millions of the Eastern tropics are to
be received as helpless wards, and ele-
waited in civilization and %enlighten-
ment, or debauched and crushed by
a traffic which recognizes no con-
science, shows nc mercy, and is
amenable only to a gospel of financial
greed.

Elisha, who was called from the ploW,

Of agreed scholarship" trained men

men of Jericho, grow ashamed and
stumble and fall in power and be-

to explain away the miraculous.
We should repudiate the preacher
or professor in our theological insti-
tutions who questions the bodily res
direction of Christ, the Virgin birth,
the physical ascension into heaven
and the second coming of our Lord in
glory, majesty and power.
To-day men are being ordained In
to the sacred ministry from our Jerl-
cho theological seminaries who teach
not individual but social salvation,
who cry Peace, peace" when there
IS no peace; who talk about the con-
version of the world when that idea
is not found in Scripture
Protests against so-called "Bibliol-
airy" are sounding from these insti-
tutions of modern-day learning, that
while the religion Of Christ may be
more e~levating, yet it is on the same
plane with the teachings Of Confu-
cius or Mahomet, and is no more in
spired than any of the others. Such
institutions were better raIed. No
wonder such a ministry is fruit
less and of non effect in the salvation
Of men. Unless we arise and contend
earnestly for the faith as it was de-
livered to the saints, in twenty-five
years the Bible will be utterly reDudi-
ated, as, indeed, it is by many who
have departed from the faith.
