THE PROGRESS OF THE GOSPEL.
We see little that savours of a mellennial state of purity and holiness. Satan, as yet maintains a usurped dominion over the kingdoms of this world ... It may be asked. Is there no time when we may expect the fulfilment of that promise, that "the earth shall be full of the glory of God as the waters cover the sea ?" Assuredly my brethren, we do expect such a time; but we connect it, not with that which we have endeav oured to show that both scripture and experience declare to be partial and interrupted in its results, blessed as those results are; we do not connect it as an immediate consequence with the publication of the Gospel in the missionary efforts of the present dispensation ; but we anticipate it as the result of a fir more glorious expectation ; when "th<God of heaven shall set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed—when Daniels vision shall be realized and "then shall be given to the Son of man dominions and glory, and a kingdom that all people, nations, and languages shall serve Him."—Rev. E.Auriol, M. A.
