turned back to the title page to see II it was the same book. l got wor ried about a lot of things that thought were emphasized in there and I found that I had been quoting some of them that had been taken out of their setting and another meaning put upon them which they did not have in his philosophy.
 What had been wrong with my first knowledge? I think you all see that had had my theology all set up for me was reading and committing to memory references to that theology.
 Brethren. are any of you stfll reading your Bibles that way? Have any of you made up your minds what you believe and then try to prove it when you read your Bible? These are heart searching times. If the Bible is worth anything on Gods footstool, it is worth everything to see what it teaches. and not to prove what you already believe or want to believe.
 This time 1 didn't care what il taught I wanted to find out and l only got little way before 1 found this, thing in the old philosophy that I hand never dreamed of. and that was, when the Son of God came into this world he came to save this world He came not simply to trans but that salvation was for here and now, and that the philosophy of Jesus when it is all summed up, is that he was interested in establishing d social order here in this world that he called the Kingdom of God And if we are ever going to come into harmony with God. now is the acceptable time; today k the day of salyation and that it is not to be put off to some future tim; that we are to seek after God and find him now
 AS these things began to become clear to me, I found how little he said that only applied to the future life Most of the sayings of Jesus have T two-f0ld applica ton, but there are very few of them that are not applicable to here and now. Many of them are also applicable to the hereafter. and as these things began to become clear to me (of course, I had been following learned to read the Bible to learn what the different authors said) and by the the Mount. I began to see what Jesus was really saying, and when l reached the twelfth verse of the seventh chap ter of Matthew, I laid down my Bible, and I said, My soul. the only thing that is wrong with Christianity is that we haven't tried tive haven't tried it yet We have been using it as some thing to talk about on Sunday and the Sabbath. We have been using it as to pray and sing about and listen to the minister about. but it has never occurred to us to go out and live it in our daily lives. If these nations calling themselves Christians were living that great principle that we call the Golden Rule, what a different world it would be! Why, the prayer that he taught us to pray would be answered then, Heaven would come be done even as it is in Heaven"

 Now. friends. l am not much of ! stickler for punctuation and construc. tion of the verses in the Bible, but that word therefore" harks back to some. thing it is a connecting word, and it harks back to everything he has said in the Semon on the Mount.
