Notices. jpRACTICAL CHRISTIANITY. Published tor the Social Bbnbfit or NohCHUHCHGOHRS. Tkl-is Christian Religion, intelligently understood, comes not to add to men's burdens but to remove, them. " For God sent not his Son int« the world to condemn the world, but that tha world through Him might be saved." Joh» Its leading doctrines, adapted to the use o this New Age. arc summarised as follows—• There is one God, in whom is & 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 the/ are of the devi? and from the devil. Good Works ought to be done, because they are of God and from God, and the/ 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 csscnce of God—love and wisdom. And there arc thre* which constitute the essence of His love—to love others out of Himself; to desire to be one with them ; <ind to make them happy from Himself, The same three constitute the essence of His wisdom ; because love and wisdom ia God make one, and love wills these things, and wisdom accomplishes them. True Christiaa 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 and do His will. "V 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 }ou: do ye even so unto them ; for this is the law and the prophets. Matt. vii. 8. The len Commandments point out what evils arc to be shunned in order that men may attain eternal life. "That it is not so difficult to live the life of heaven as if ccmmonly believed is evident fro& this—that when anything presents itself that one knows to be insincere and unjust, to which his 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 heaves ; 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 erils they can be shaken off, tor it impossible that any evil can be shaken off until it be seen* This is m state into which a man may enter from freedom ; for who is not capable from freedom of thinking in this manner ? But when he has made a beginning all goods are wrought in him by the Lord, and He causes him not only to see evils, but at* sonot 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, xi. 30 But it should be known that the difficulty of so thinking, and likewise of resisting evils, increases in proportion as a man from the wills commit evils, for in so far he becomes accustomed to them, until at length he does net sec them, and afterwards loves them, and from the,delight of love excuses them, and by all kinds of fallacies confirms them, and declares that they are allowable and good. But this occurs vritn those who in the age of adolescence plunge into evils as if without restraint, and at the same time reject Divine things from the heart."— 1 Heaven and Heir," No. 533.
