PRAYER AND LAW. BY DE. W. E. A'LAREN, BISNOP-ELECT OF ILLM Xos. As Dr. McLaren will, 1n all probability, within & few daysenter upon the dischargo of his daties 88 Bishop of I!linois, there will be & generat de- sire throughont the State, and especially in Chi- esgo, to have definito information in regard to his intellectual character, and the maoner in which he may be expected to perform the great work to which he is here called asa religions teacher. It is scarcely to be expectod thatsny special discourse, dalivered immediately after his consecration as a Bishop, will be a fair speci- men, or give the full measure of his powers. He will be somewhat in the position of David when preparicg for his first battlo upon s new field and with & new ememy; he hasnot yet tried his armor and the temper of the new ‘weapous which be is here to assume, fighting vo longer s one of tho rank and fils, bt sas < Captain of the Lord’s host.” At all events, the public generally will bs in- terested in knowing what Dr. McLaren has heretofore regarded 8 his ordinery work as a minister of Clrist, and how he has performed it. This natural desire will, porhaps, be as well met by an article published by Dr. McLaren in the Church Retiew for July last, a5 to anything to which the publio has accoss. The article is on ‘* Prayer and Law,” and ita perusal will repay ail thouzhtful minds. It will also show that Dr. JlcLaren is alive to all the liviog issues of the day, andis accustomed to grapple with them aa an carnest man who realizes the profound inter- ests which they involve. The following terrible utterance is quoted by Farrar in his Critical History of Free Thought from tho writ- ings of Holyoaks, the English soculariss : “Bclence” haa shown us that we ars under the do- minfon of general laws, and thst there is no specisl Providence. Nature acls with fearfal uniformity; stern 2a fate, absoluto 23 tyranny. merciless as dsath { too vast to pralse, too inexplicabis to worahip, too o~ exorable to propitiats, it has -no_ear far prayer, 5o Deart for sympaiby, noarm to sase,” ‘This is the plansible and dangerons error respecting prayer, which the busy propaganda of ekepticlam i3 spresding abroad with the result of producing debili- tating doubt in many minds and poritive unbelief in some. This error, in its ultimate polnt of arrival, is a denial of God, With those who have reached its logi- cal terminus we cannot argus the question, If thers b a positive denl of the Divine Personality, then our tark must ba the demoustration of & God, and not of the beautiful consistency there is between prayer and i o bettovo 1l are agreed who belleve in prayer at all are it retogaciive of refaive Sdoctes I clesaiss the wind snd traaquilizes the troubled broast. It tends to i~ press moral truth vividly on the conscience, and in~ epires the creature with reverence towards his Crestor. At this point some think they find the limit of its ef- fickency. They hold that the infuence of prayer is exclusively reactionary, and so eliminate its primary constituents, reducing it to 3 meaningless mockery and themselves to psniomimists. if prayer does not terminate in God and produce resuils which would Dot be actualized without it, it would be better to give up prayer gatirely, for any real reflexive induence s attainable@hly as the heart recognizes its direct {nflu- enco, Tha light of the moon presupposes tha light of the sun. The allegation that natural law furnishes evidsnce af the inefficiency of prayer upon God is not the argu~ ment of u'?:f:& Tho oblection comes from ‘eagerantagonistsof tianity who wit rity generalize from the incomplete. Entcons of hyet- cal sclence. True, some who occupy honorable pomi- Dence among scientista havo espoused the objectios, at it is believed that in them the characteristic mod~ esty of those who alt at Nature feet to learn ber secrets has been overborne by the passton of battie and the precipitancy that is engenderod by the fray. Sclence has not gone 8o far, For the prosent ths quas tion 18 between men of science aud men of science. Tt will bo well to atate the views of these objectore. Under the Influences of thoee advances in the nowl edge of physical phencmens snd their immediata causes, by which much that was formerly classified with the supernaturs] has been relegated to the sphots of tho patural, there is a disposition mors or lsss pro- notn-ed to elévate and emplinaize law at tho expanse of the Law-giver. Wide research in all the Seids of Nature, with te increasing facilies of {avestigation :pe, ood a clearer perception of ths of law or principls of mniformity, bave lifted law to promi- - pence, whils they bave Seemed to banish God to a distant obacurity. Law is to their minda the goldsn, cleae-cat sua; Deity the glimmering nebu'a. They say that satronomy reveals the mathemafical precision of Iaw, even in those phenomens of the besvens, such as cumets, which wero formerly rogarded as lawicas, and zta remoter period as supernatural, Geolcgy binds the hidden deptbs of the earth to the Tule of Law, even to the diatant epochs of prehistorio time. Lawls em- pife is co-extensive witn space and cooval with time, fta power o irresistible, it progress 18 npon s lina of Tigid continuity, its dominion is fxed. niform, uni- yersai, undisturbed. 1t yie!ds to no interfarence, and 1s its own providence, Someof thess theorista are pronounced Atheists. Others deny the Divine Person- ality, and identify thelr God with the uDiverse. Ota- ore, anwilling to commit tnemselves Lo Atbalem or ‘panthefsm, retain the Thelstic idea, bus bind God by tho chaioa'of the lnevianle, This opicurean sweep of m away from 3o vaperatural and the rovdental atieaty steed widely in the literature of the dsy and in the portep« tous systems of naturalism that everywhbere rear thets fers. It inidle to fgnore the dimcalties of the Hon oF to underrate the necessity of showing thal the providential government of God is 50t » wuperstitious chim ora. It is evident that we should fiuwt of all scck o arrive at s correct understand ing of terms, What, for instance, do we mean when wosaylaw? Itsecms {0 me that thereare two ave- Duca of approach to this term, 1f I approach it, as concepticn I mas, {rom tha divine side, 1 percetve it ia the mode in which God scts or the method He haa chosen of controlling the universe. Law is, simply, the Law-giver foverning. 1t is the expresafon, in muk tiform ways, of infinita inteiligence, power, and benevor lence. Batif 1 approach the word from the humas #ide, it means nothing more than the observed phe nomena of Nature aud history operating according to certaia orders and uniformities. What the Dat wralizt styles “lsws,” then, are eimply facts; as the fact of graviiatipn, the fact o grows from ge: the fact ‘of electricity. snd ths mode in which thess facls exist, In the former io stance law is the Law-mver governing; in ths latte Jaw is mature governed, The Bataralit looks fork, upon the universe from the Joop-Lole of s Gnite inte. The su, despise the b ais of & God, bus accept- ing it as being also m’m great truth, surveys the wide cosmos fram the lofty standpoint of the Throne of the Infinite. As msn slopt ome or the other of these methods of defining lax, they will reject or be- Heve the Divine intervention {n the 2airs of the uni~ verse. ‘But the argument {rom observation and of phenomens may bo employsd in the et "of our view.
