Is GREAT ESTABLISHED FACT
Skeptics Have at All Times Failed to
Disprove the Resurrection OF
Easter Morning.

The lesson OF Easter involves the
question of the divinity of Christ.
There are two great miracles upon
which Christianity rests. The miracu-
lOus birth and the resurrection go to-
gether. If we believe one we can be-
lieve the other. The former Is not
subject to historical proof. The lat
ter has been proved and is one Of the
best-estabished facts in history.
Those who imagine themselves to
be too modern" to accept the resur-
rectiOn rs a literal fact, are deluding
no one but themselves. There is moth
ing new in the effort to explain away
the great event. Men have been try
ing out explanations ever since the
guards who went to sleep on duty
around the tomb excused themselves
by saying the disciples stole his body
away while they slept. Explalners
have risen and fallen as the ages have
come ana gone and the deeper the
eXplainers have gone. into the matter,
the more apparent has become the
fact. The simple Gospel narratives
gave enough of the physical details
of the event to make II convincing;
the fact that the disciples themselves
did not expect the resurrection and
were slow to believe II until they
were forced to believe IL by his pres
ence among them; by exhibition of his
sacred wounds and the fact that II
became the burden of their preaching
in the future all go to make up the
indisputable collateral evidence of the
literal fact. Every one of the disciples
is said to have died IA martyr and his
resurrection was their Testimony to
martyrdOm."-H. Lee Mills in Houston

After all the arguments have been
maEshaed before human reason for or
against the return of Christ IN the

Jesus live can be answered by the be-

proof. If like Paul, he knows whom
he believes, doubts about the details
of the event Of the resurrection do
not concern him.
