Certainly It Does Make The Greatest Possible

In The Sphere Of Religion, As In Other Spheres, The Things About Which Men Are Agreed Are Apt To Be The Things That Are Least Worth Holding; The Really Important Things Are The Things About Which Men Will Fight.

Just Supposing For The Sake Of The Argument That There Is A Being Of Such A Kind As That He May With Any Propriety Be Called "god", It Does Seem Antecedently Very Improbable That Weak And Limited Creatures Of A Day, Such As We Are, Should Discover Him By Our Own Efforts.... Who Could Be Discovered In That Way Would Hardly Be Worth Discovering. I Think We Ought To Stick To That Principle Rather Firmly. I Think We Ought To Be Rather Sure That We Cannot Know God Unless God Has Been Pleased To Reveal Himself To Us.

God Is The Ruler Of History. His Times Are Well Chosen The Roman Empire Was An Instrument In His Hand. And So Are The Nations Of The Modern World.

Jesus Was Certainly Not A Mere Enunciator Of Permanent Truths, Like The Modern Liberal Preacher; On The Contrary He Was Conscious Of Standing At The Turning-point Of The Ages, When What Had Never Been Was Now To Come To Be.

I'm So Thankful For The Active Obedience Of Christ. No Hope Without It.
