That the writer holds as strong broad Church viows as Bishop Colenso, of Natul, or the late Theo- dore Parker, of Boston, there cannot be any possible doubt, That the human fallible spirit of this age he thinks greater than the treasured wisdom and holiness of the early Christian and Middle Ages he would not, I think, deny. In opening the firsypages of the Old Testament we there read that God ‘created the heaven and the earth” aud created man in His “umage and likeness.” It 1s hard to tell whether this material uaiverse or man is the greater crea- tion.

Man still, with these two organizations, Would be animal—would allow the animal nature to overcome the intellectual, and human society, the separation between the sexes, Christian marriage, could notin any stable way exist. But God gave man another life—the spiritual life, the life of soul—that Hfe which, waen the material y. was lost in dust, would still jive; that life which, with the help of God, would ratse man from the power of flesh and teil him in his soul that he 15 greater than the jower animals.

Such 19 the sum and substance of Christianity. As man stands in this world he is guided by diviae and buman law. Wihicn buman society was formed tt was found the abstract divine law wasnot full and suiciens to govern man. God did not appear to man In a representative capacity to enforce obedience, 40 the divine law wes not enough; human socicty needed livlug men to eniorce human laws in order to preserve civil order, The divine law was to fit wan tolive in harmony with his great destiny, be tmoral, religious and prepare nim for everiastin; life.

If there ts any truth in religion the same doctrines that were taught in the first century should be taught to-day, God witi not change. God's Church cannot, in main points, chauge. Did not Jesus Chriat algo tell the Apostles, “Behold, lam with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.” This divine law should be the same in Asia, Africa, Europe, America—among the brutal negroes tn the African wilderness, the wild Arab of tne desert, the educated and refined European or American—in the Fea hala of royally a8 well as in the tenants at, at Once Catholic and universal.
