Iiigicn. Why is the teaching of Christ so little respected when the Bible con taining His teaching, Is everywhere signed by St. Paul for the rejection of Christ by the Jewish people. For they that dwell atSJerusaien.- and their rul- CTS, because they knew Him mot. nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day. they have fulfilled them in condemnfng him." Acts 13:27. St. Peter in speak ing of them declares. This is the stone which was set at nought of you the corner" Act 4s11.
 scripturaI Criticism Not New.
 Criticism of the Scriptures did not begin with modern scholars but is as old as the fall of man when the. ser pent said unto the woman Tea. hath God said." and fnstii1ed doubt into her Jewish church in the rejection and crucfflxion of the Christ. In the mod ern church this criticism calling itself Higher" has seated itself in the pro- fessor's chair in theological college and university courses eating away the very vitals of faith in the young men training for the ministry until it has become what Harold Boice wrote in the Cosmopolitan Magazine of May. 1910. aBlasting at the Rock of Ages'' Tn which the names and pictures Of leading professors of the colleges are set before the public with their pro fession of unbelief. For years the modern church has been sowing to the wind. until the teachings of Christ have but little weight. and have long been relegated to the background and the Christian church and world Is now reaping whirlwind of hate and blood shed, which could not be surpassed by any heathen nation. Higher prophecies of the Bible. the Old Testa : Criticism has refused toaccept the | Nf he Adx of Christ are neglected and rejected by the critics of today as fully and com pletely as they ever were by the critics Of the Jewish church which crucifed present great world conflict. and signs of His second avent are forgotten and unheralded except by those humber men who do not know enough to tear enough to believe it. Thus. the great world prophecy of Daniel of the four great predominant world empires. clearly indicating that the fourth world kingdom-the Roman Empirelshould be divided and remain divided to the end in spite of men like Charles and Napoleon Bonaparte striving to erect once more the ancient throne of the Caesars and world dominion. This great prophecy has little place in. the word fulfilled before our eyes today. speaking of modern Europe-the old Roman Empire--'they shall minEle themselves with the seed Of men 2iTl- ternarrs0 but they shall not cleaye one to another" Dan PAS.
 Eurepe,s Family Quarrel.
 With the failure of Napoleon began the marriage alliance plan for tic Inn- if1cation of Europe. and at the out break of the war some of our leading dailies came out with editorials on Europe's family quarrel showing how the marital alliance plan had ighom- iniously failed: according to the prophet the next step in the. world drama will be this-'sIrl the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up q lxingdom-jt shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms Dan. 2:44.
 How Christ will come and esta biisf this new world empire will be the subject of Mir. Stray's lecture at the Breed theatre Sunday evening. Feb rury 25.
