And the following thoughts of the discourse suggent themaelves to the writer: Nicodemus came to Jesus surround- ed by spiritual darkness, and he is also surrounded by the shades of night. And there are many who ask, Whet is truth? At the time of the coming of Ohrist the philosophers had used all the power of thought possible for man, and yet without preducing pence to the soul of their auditors, until the common question of the day was, What ts truth“ And Christ the ideal man came to answer that ques- tion. There ave truly many who ask the question, but it should always be wsked in reverence, not as Pilate when he asked Christ, whom he swrrondered to be crucified, but with an intention to become master of it and obey it. The question may arise, Do we have knowledgo to begin withi Man does know the difference between right and wrong. This is seen in all lands, whether the light of Christianity or civilizition has shown on it or not And 18 also true in reforence to the 1ntuitive faculty in man, that there is & supernatural being upon whom they are depending and to whom they are responsible, And these facts may cause the minde of those who may be fearful in reference to the triumph of the church, to rest assured that God is the person who controls vhe world and those who inhabit it, and will not suffor His cause to be affected in the least by any foreign power unknown by Him, There is that in man which demands a religion, and not only do theists know this bat infidels aro compelled to ackaowledge it, ameng whom are Sponcer, Tyudall, Mathew Arnold And in the inspired word we find the needed instruction, If we do the truth weo will come to the light. And in reference to doing what we know for the Supreme Ruler, we must take him as a friend bufore we com- mence our labor for him, This must be the plaiform upon which we must stand, Giod needs no assistance what- ever, but he does want to prove cur fidelity to him, therefore there must be some mesus by which to prove it.

Bat if one violates the civil law and is convioted, wiil the judge allow the convicted man to go free because he is sorry for the sins ho has committed? No. He will send him to the penitentiary. But Christ came on earth to save those who would believe; for G)d 80 loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever be- lieveth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life, Thereforo no myatories must be understcod pre- paratory to accepting or underatund- ing the truth, but simply believing Christ is necessary.
