The modern, like tho ancient, Ten
pie Of God rests upon the foundations
Of tho universe. Religious thought and
scientific research work together to
bring them to view. It comes with in
vigorat1ng freshness to one who dis
covers it in experience. that the words
Of Christ are based upon old, but new
ly discovered, foundations of the uni
verse, and are therefore in harmony
with the newly discovered truth OF
each generation.
These thoughts are suggested by
what our Lord said a few days before
His death: ''Verily, verify, l say unto
you, except corn of wheat fall into
the ground and die, 1t abideth alone I;
but If it die, it bringeth forth much
fruit" He took truth Of nature and
showed that 1t applied both to himself
and to us, true equally Of the seed, the
Savior and the sinner.
The seed preserved misses its des-
tiny and abides alone. Sown In the
earth, and dying, 1t brings forth fruit
Consider the illimitable scope of this
law. The surface Of the world had to
perish age after age, to produce soil
in which plant life could live; plants
had to perish, as they do now, that ant
mails might live; uncounted billions of
creatures, huge and infnitesimal, had
to perish that man might appear;
whole races have to pass away, that
higher races may be developed; old
customs and ideas must die to give
place to fuller truth
The word Easter illustrates this
perfectly. Ostara, the goddess OF
spring to our heather ancestors, the
Ishtara of the Phoenicians, the Istar
Of Babylonia, has persisted from the
