I Trub Christian Religion, intelligently under* stood, comes not to add to men's burdens but to remove them. M For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." John 17 Its leading doctrines, adapted to the use of this New Age. are 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 essence of God—love and wisdom. And there are three which constitute the essence of His love—to love others out of Himself; to desiroto be one with them ; and to make them happy from •Himself; The same three constitute theessenc© oi His wisdom ; because love and wisdom in God make one, and love wills these things, and wisdom accomplishes them. True Christian Religion, No. 43. The word of God is Divine truth clothed in human language, and adapted to the varied 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 >ou: do ye even so unto them ; for this is the law and the prophets. Matt. vii. 8. The Ten Commandments point out what evils are to be shunned in order that men may attain eternal life. "That it is not so difficult to ivc the life of eaven as if commonly believed is evident from 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 hiioselt so to think, and from custom derives the habit, he is then by degrees conjoined to heaven ; and in so far as he is con joined to heaven, the higher degrees of his mind are opened; and in so far as these arc opened he sees what is insincere and unjust; and in so far as he sees these evils they can be shaken off, lor it impossible that any evil can be shaken off 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 I 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 ,ilsonot to will them, and finally to become averse to theui. This is meant bv the Lord's words, " My yoke is ea*y and .My burden is light." Matt. xi. oO But it should be known that the difficulty oi so thinking, and likewise oi resisting evils, increases in proportion as a man from the wills commit evils, for in so far ho becomes accustomed to them, until at length bo does not see them, and afterwards loves tbem, and from the delight of love excuses them, and by all kinds of fallacies confirms them, and declares that they are allowable and good. Hut this occurs with 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." Heaven and Hell." No. 533.
