Thi'b Clirislian Religion, intelligently under- : stood, comes not to add tn nicin's burdens but (o '■ rranw them. " For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn tho world, but tli.it the : world through Him might be saved." John iii, i 17 I Its leading doctrines, adapted to the use of [ this Xcw Age. arc 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. 1 Evils are to \>c shunned, because they are of the devi! and from the devil. Good Works ousht to be done, because they are of God and from God, and they : ought to be done by man as of himself, but I Willi the belief that they are from thcLord, operatiuir in him by him. There are two things which constitute, the essence of God-love and wisdom. And there are thren which constitute tho essence of His : love—to love others out of Himself lto desiro to i be one with them ; .mil to make them happy from I Himself, The same three constitute the essence <)i His wisdom ; because love and wisdom in , God make one, and love wills these things, and j wisdom accomplishes them. True Christian Religion, No. I.). The word of God is Divine truth clothed in I human language, and ad.ipli'd to (lie varied states of the liiimaii heart, that ilitis a man may I know God, and learn t» know and du His will. "If ye continue in .My word, then nre ye My disciples indeed." John viii. :U. '• Therefore all things whatsoever ye wutiH that men should do unto jon: 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 I eternal life. I "That it is not so difficult to ive the life o r 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 heaven ; and in so far as he is conjoined to heaven, the hifjhcr decrees of his mind are opened \ and in so ! and unjust; and in so far as he sees these evils 1 they can be shaken off, lor it impossiulc 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 in this manner ? But when he has made a begin- ! ning all goods are wrought in him by the Lord, : and He causes him not only to see evils, but al--1 sonot to will them, and finally to become averse | ! to them. This is meant by tho Lord's words, I "My yoke is easy and Mr Kurden is light." I Matt. xi. 00. Hut it should be known that the difficulty of so thinking, and likewise of resisting j evils, increases in proportion as a man from the i wills commit evils, for in so far he becomes i accustomed to them, until at length he does not I seethem.and afterwards loves them, and from ! the delight of love excuses them, and by all kinds , of lallacics confirms them, and declares that they i are allowable and good, liut this occurs with ! those who in the age of adolescence plunge into i evils as it without restraint, and at the same time reject Divine things from tne heart."—" Heaven ! and Hell."
