While some folk err in counting
the Lord out and making everything

who make the opposite error and

view of the manner in which the
Lord works through human agen-

A man who objected to soul
winning efforts, and especially per-

God could save man if he were
alone on the top of the Alps" OF
course He could, but God does not
ordinarily work that way. It is the
