He saw he must deal with the spirit of Christ. He remembers various legends gathered from all parts during his travels and writes them into his history. ' But' the true ver- sion of the ascension, as I believe it, was the ascendant’ spirit ~of Christ responding’ to 'the descending and in- flowing spirit of God. The as- cendant spirit of man is the response to the inflowing spirit of God. We: must not deal with the Ascension as though it had happened and would -never happen again. Just as it was then %0 it is now | 1t is your response to the spirit of God. Does God appeal to. us? If there iis response there must naturally be an ap- peal. We see the order of life, the cre- ation of the world, the plant and animal life, the human life, and we find *«thing out of place. Does not this préseni an appeal to you? We see the development of the man, his power to choose, thunk, reason and freedom of will. Is tiera no appeal in that?
