Notices. T> RA C TIC AI, CHRISTIANITY. PUIILtSIIKU FOK THE SI'HCIAI. HIiNEUT OF No!tCIIURCHCOKKS. Truk Christian Religion, intelligently understood, conies not to add to men's burdens but. to rctnovr. them. ' tor Ood sent not his Son into the world !n condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." Johm 17. Its leading doctrines, adapted to tbe use of this New Ago. are summarised as follows— . There is one God, in whom is a Divine Trinity of Love, Wisdom and Operation, and Hu is the Lord Jesus Christ. Saving Faith is to believe in Him. Evils are lo be shunned, because they are of the devi' and from the devil. Good Works ought to be done, because lliey are f,f God and from God, and they ought to be done by man as of hiinself-.'but with the belief that they are from the Lord, operating in him by him. There are two things which constitute the essence of God—love and wisdom. And there art; thre" , which constitute the essence of His 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 tbc essence ot His wisdom ; because love and w.sdorn m God make one, and love wills these things, and wisdom accomplishes them. True Christian Religion, No. «. The word of God is Divine truth clothed in human language, and adapted to the raried states of the human heart, that thus a man may know God. and learn to know and do His will. "IF ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed." John viii. 31. "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do unto jou: do ye even so unto them : for this is the law and the prophets. Matt. vii. 8. The ien Commandments point out what evils are to be shunned in order that men may attain eternal life. "That it is not so difficult to live the life o' heaven as if ccmruunly believed is evident froifc this—that when anything presents itself that one knows to bo insincere and unjust, to which kis mind is disposed, he need not only think that it ought not to be done because it is contrary to the Divine commands. If a man accustoms himself so to think, and from custom derives the habit, he is then by degrees conjoined to hearen ; and in so far as he is conjoined to heaven, the higher degrees of his mind are opened; and in so far as these are opened he sees what is insincere

and unjust; and in so far as he sees these evils they can be shaken off, for it impossiole that any evil can be shaken off until it be seen. This is a statu into which a man may enter from freedom ; for who is not capable from freedom of thinking in this manner ? Hut when he has made a beginning all goods arc wrought in him by the Lord, and He causes him not only to see evils, but alsonot to will them, and finally to become averno to them. This is meant by the Lord's words, " .My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matt. xi. 30 llut it should be known that the difficulty ot so thinking, and likewise of resisting evils, increases in proDortion as a 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,delight of love excuses them, and by all kinds i of fallacies confirms them, and declares that they [ are allowable and food. Hut this occurs with those who in the age of adolescence plunge into evils as ifwithout restraint, and at the same time reject Divine things from the heart."—" Heaven and Hell." No. 5315.
