Notices. PRACTICAL U H RISTIANITY. PUIILISHKI) FOR THE SI'KCIAL BuNKFIT OF NoKCiIURCHGOKRS. Truk Christian Religion, intelligently under* stood, comes not to add to men's burdens tint to remove-, them. " For God sent not bis Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." John Its leading doctrines, adapted to the use of this New Age. .ire summarised as follows —■ There is one God, in whom is a Divine Trinity of Love, Wisdom and Operation, and He is the Lord Jesus Christ. Saving Faith is to believe in Him. Evils are to be shunned, because they are of the devi.' and from the devil. Good Works ought to be done, because they are of God and from God, and they ought to be done by man as,of himself, but with the belief that they are from the Lord, operating in him by him. There are two things which constitute the cssenrc of God—love and wisdom. And there are thre» which constitute the essence of Hi» love—to love others out of Himself: to desire to be one with them ; and to make them happy from Himself, The same three constitute the essence ol His wisdom ; because, love and Wisdom in God make one, and love wills th'sse things, and wisdom accomplishes them. True Christian Religion, No. 43. The word of God is Divine, truth clothed in human language, .ind adapted to the varied states of the human heart, that thus a man may know God, and learn to know ami do His will. "I've continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed." John viii. 31. '•.Therolore all things whatsoever ye woul.i that men should do unto jou: do ve cvc'i so unto them ; for this is the law and the prophets. Matt. vii. 8.

The Ten Commandments point nut what evils a.rc to be shunned tn order th.it men iiitiy Attain eternal life. " Tli.it; it is not so difficult to live ll.e life o. r _ heaven .is if ccninionly believed is evident fron. this—th.it whi!Fi anjthiiiK presents itself that one knows tti l>o insincere and unjust, to which his mind is disposed, he need r.ot only think that it ought not to be done because it is contrary to the Divine commands. If a man accustoms himself so to ihink, an.i from custom derives the habit, hu is then by il'ffrees conjoined to heaven ; and in so far as "he i≤ conjoined to heaven, the higher decrees of his mind arc opened ; and in so far as these are open.id he sees what is insincere and unjust; and in so far as he sees these evils they cm be shaken off, tor it impossible that any evif can be shaken otF until it be seen. This is a state into which a man may enter from freedom ; for who is not capable from freedom of thinking in this manner . ; Kut when he has made a beginning all poods are wrought in him by the Lord, and He causes him not only to sc« evils, but alsonot to will them, and finally to become averse to them. This is meant by the Lord's words, " -My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matt. x\. SO Hut it should be known that the "* difficulty ol so thinking, and likewise of resisting evils, increases in proportion as z man from tho will commits evils, for in so far he becomes accustomed to them, until at length he does not see them, and afterwards loves them, and from the.delinht of love excuses them, and by all kinds of fallacies confirms them, and declares that they arc allowable and gnml. Hut this occurs with those who in the age nf ndiloscencq plunge into evils as if without restraint, and at the same time reject Divine tiling from the heart."—" Heaven aiid H"ll," No. f>33.
