Whist Is Tha Difference
Between Faith And
Belief?

There is quite q deep point to
be considered in this question
For we read.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence Of things not seen. Heb l'-l.
Here is faith and now we quote
you passage on belief
Tno,: bcl.rvcrt that there is one God; thou
docsl we'll; the devils also believe, and tremblc.
Jamcsal9.
Those two passages must show
to our readers, that there IL a
difference between faith and be-
lief. The first one says. that
faith is the substance Of things
hoped for, the evidence of things
not seen, this faith could not be
belief. For it takes more than
belief, for to be the substance OF
things hoped for. "A Christian
mans hope is heaven. And the
very SUBSTANCE of that hope IS
CHRIST. And Car st is also the
evidence, belief can not be eth
er one. For 1here must be G
substance and All evidence, be-
fore man can believe. And We
learn in the second quotation, it
SAYS devils believed and trem bled.
And their belief brings the.@ 20
hope, because they have no hope,
of deliverenre. There was devils
confessed that Jesus was the sou
of God. And yet they had no
! hope in such y belief. There :, is
men who believe in Christ. and
also in his teachings, and yce
they may not have the faith in
themselves to carry out their
belief and become Christian.
From what we have before US we
must fully understand, that there
; is a difference in faith ana belief.
But to come to an understand
ing what the difference are, is
just what will try the mans
comprehension, of the truth.
We shall first quote you the
scripture, setting forth the
armor of God. Please read.
Finally my brethren, be strong IN the Lord
and in the power of his might
Put on the whole armour If God that ye ma :.
be able to stand against the wiles OF the devil
For we wrestlc not against flesh nrd blood
bnt against rrincpaities. against powers
against the rulers of the d rkncSs of this worl'
against spiritual w'ckcdncss in high places.
Wherefore take unto YOU the whole armour OF
God. that yc may be able to withstand in thu
evil dag, and having done all, to stand.
Stand therefore, having your loins GRIT ahon
with truth, having ON the phosphate of right
eouSness:
And your feet shod with the preparation q
the gospel of peace;
Above all. taking tho shield Of faith. where

VINO but women when Judas
betrayed and Peter denied. and
the weary slep, and the fearful
fled could summon energy to
linger around the spot. to mingle
the tears Of pity with the blood
of suffering? who but a woman
when man turned coward. and
his trust grew faint could stand
until the last by the DYING Saw
ior. and then so to trim the lamp
of her devotion at the door of the
sepulchre.
Kind words bring memories
that echo through the years long
after the lips that uttered them
have ciumblcd to dust Children
carry the memory of words of
appreciation with them thru
childhood and often recall them
in old age when enveloped in
the shadows of life. They are like
the perfume of the violet the lifts
it's head above the spring SHOWS
and whispers to them OF the sun
shine. Money cannot buy, intel
lect cannot create so rare a gem
as true kindness. 1t is a 1T arr
product and needs the tenderest
of culture. 1t is killed by indif
ference and enfeebled by neglect

| Ephc. G--lN TOGO
In the 10v. it does not say that
you shall be strong in the Lord,
only, but you are also to be
strong in the power of the Lords
might. Now we believe that
there is but few who know what
The Lords might is, much less
the power OF his might. Bat
this is not the question now.
I Why we quoted this scripture is
for the purpose of finding out the
position that faith and belief
holds in the armor of God. A.
bove all take the shield of faith,
16v with the shield of faith Won
ale able TO quench all the frey
darts OF the wicked one. The
shield of faith is not belief then.
Because belief Of most any de-
gree can be over come, but the
shield of faith can not De over
come. For this reason we must
say that God himself is tho stield
Of faitll-(thaS is the shield OF
| Christi For it is written.
But would have you know, that ihe head
Of every man is Christ aud Er head Of the
woman is the mainland the bead Of Christ is
cod tor, IA.
This proves God to be the head
of Christ. Nov then is Christ
represented in the word faith.
We rep at that il faith is the
substance of things hoped for
Then the word faith, here, re-
presents Christ--for Christ is
the substance of things hoped
for-.And if faith is the G idence
of things not sc?n-Tnen the
word faith again represents
IChrist-t'or He is the evidence
of things not seen.
Again if the circumcision must
be justified by faith-Then again
it is Christ And if the uncir,
cumcision is justified through
faith-Tuen faith must represent
Christ-For it is Christ tina, will
Justify both Jew and Gentle.
Again the word says contend
earnestly for the faith once de-
llycred to the saints land in this
sentence we see Christ tor it was
him that Was delivered unto the
saints by The determan d council
of God So our belief is quite
different from this kind OF faith
spoken of.
But to be honest with our
READERS we must say tEat the
word faith. many times spoken
in the bible is applied as an atlri
; bnte of the mind Of man, Ard
in but a very few instances IL
will perfectly cover tn" word be-
lief. And where we will distin-
guish the greatest difference in
the two words are in the field
they cover. The word faith will
cover larger field than the word
belief. Especially in the manner
they are both used in thu pre-
sent time, for instance We say
"faithfulness," "faith|cs,nes-,
we never use the word, belief
fulness, "belietlessne>s". It's
true it could be used in this
manner. But, in such teltence
faith if preferable.
So trusting that our worthy
Bro may from our ans wer re
cejve the desired information we
beg to remain as your Bro, in
Christ.

VETors AND VACATIONS.

In deciding to take a recess instead OF
an adjournment without day the Legs
lature forced Governor Dix into the 20
sition Of having TO dispose OF some TWO
hundred bills within ten days instead OF
the customary thirty following an ad-
ionrnment. The Governor, 1t seems,
hopes TO finish that task inside the al
lotted period. though handicapped by the
absence OF william Church Osborn, his
legal adviser, IN order that he may take
g months vacation.
Many Of the bills are local measures
some vicious in their assault on the
much Wanted Democratic principle OF
home rule, others needless. The best
work Of Mr. Dix. the Executive, has been
his exercise Of the veto power We re-
specially submit that he couldn't 20 very
far wrong IL be added few days TO his
vacation by slsughtering many OF these
choice legislative products, beginning
with the vicious Court Of Claims ripper
bin and the Stilwell grab at City Hall
Park for a courthouse.

pROHIRITION ~ TEXAS.

The result Of the vote in Texas last
Saturday on a prohibition amendment 70
the constitution is altogether indecisive.
Apparently the amendment has been de
feated by majority OF lcss than 5OOC
IN total vote Of nearly 100000. Such
q reverse will be certain 10 encourage a
new submission movement and the Leg
islature is not likely to have the coura &c
to resist a demand for another test Of
opinion. The anti-Prohibitionists were
overconfdent Of victory. Governor Col
quit rashly predicted majority Of 100
600 and The Houston Post" has been
talking about a landslide Of 100000
against prohibition. The extravagant ex-
pectations Of the AUTHORIZATION leaders
make their actual majority seem pain
fully inadequate.
There can be no doubt that the eco
nomic reasons which drove other South
ern states to adopt statewide prohibition
operated strongly In Texas. The cities as
rule protest firmly against policy
which it is not practicable TO enforce
within their limits and which tends
merely 10 substitute unlicensed blind
tigers" for licensed saloons. But the
country districts. which lack sufficient
police machinery 10 deal with the crimes
resulting from intOxicatiOn, have little
sympathy with the home rule argument
Of the municipalities They want the
traffic made unlawful. trusting TO the
added cost and difficulty Of getting
liquors to keep them out Of the hands Of
those whose consumption Of them consti-
tutes menace to public order.
The Democratic machine which now
controls Texas politics is tied up with the
liquor interests I'm the cities. and the sue
cess Of the prohibition movement would
probably bring about a new rule within
the party. This. II will be generally con-
coded. Texas needs. The vote Of Satur-
day. therefore. augurs IN for Governor
Colquitt and the powers which nominated
him last year at the Galveston con-
vention. II is serious blow not only at
high license in the cities but at the per-
pctuity Of the Bailey Olquitt machine
