MIRACLE SEEN LOSING
TO LAW III RELIGION
Man Breaking Away From Primi.
tive Tradition to Solid Facts.
Says Dr.. Pierce.
CHANGES COMING RAPIDLY
Christianity Always Means New
Order, Minister Asserts.

Christianity is the religion OF change
and has been from the earliest days of
Christianity, Dr. Ulysses G.. Z. Pierce
told the congregation OF All Sous I'll
tartan Church, at services in the b. r
Keith Thcater. yesterday morning. The
services were broadcast by station
WCAP.
Where Christianity has gone it has
carried with it the passion to change
the world" he said. 'It has accepted
nothing and left it in status quo. 1t has
started a reformation here purifying
fire there. 1t has sent pilgrims over
the seas and pioneers over the noun
tains II has stimulated the passion,
the divine passion TO Change froia Whal
is1 to what may become. -.
DIR. Pierce said that the race has
moved steadily from religion as a trad.-
Tion toward religion as law.
Originally religion was almost Wholly
composed of miracles, Of myth. OF
magic, of soothsayins.' he said. The
priest was the soothsayer, and NEGRO
Inancer. The whole field Of religion
was not only III the suovrse.sual, hut
was beyond the eNperis!.ce of the ordi-
nary man, and that made up his religion
He delighted III telling these tales o.
miracles and strange things. These are
recorded not in the Bible alone; tney
are recorded in all ancient literature.
Now, our modern religious thought
is moving inevitably and Very swiftly
away from the religion OF miracle TO
the religion OF law. There are some
people whose faith in God has not Yea
been fully established. who nave not
vet made themselves al home in the
land CT the free and the home of the
brave. and they are still vainiy trying
to live as if they were in Palestine two
thousand years ago. and look with Tear
and dread upon this change ot estimate
OF The. miracle of religion.
