True Christian Religion, intelligently understood, comes not to add to men s burdens but to remove them. " For (Sod sent not his ion into the world to condemn the world, but tbat the world through Him might be saved. John in, \ s 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 Htm. 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 hiros»lf, 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 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 the essence oi His wisdom; because love and wisdom in God make one, and love wills these things, and wisdom accomplishes them, irue Christian R The'word°of 4 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. "I've continue in My word, then are ye My disrioles indeed." John vui. 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. vu. 8. The Ten Commandments point out what evils are to be shunned in order that men may attain eternallife. , , "That it is not so difficult to ive the life o heaven as if commonly believed ".evident [ron. tbis-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 15 contrary to the Divine commands. If a man accustoms hitaseffso 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 higher degrees of his mind are opened: andm so far as these are opened he sees what is insincere . and in so far as he sees these evils they can be shaken off, tor it impossible that any evil can be shaken off until it be seen. Tjm'Sa state into which a man may enter from J r ee d { ) ! n » for who is not capable from freedom of thinking in this manner ? But when he has made a beginning all goods are wrought m him by the Lord, and He causes him not only to see evils, but alsonot to will them, and finally to become averse tnthpin. This is meant by the Lord s words.

to them, lnis is meant uy - ---—j "My yoke is easy and My hurden 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 not see them, and afterwards loves them, and from the delight of love excuses them, and by all kinds of fallaciesconfirms them, and declares that they are allowable and good. But this occurs with tkose who in the age of adolescence plunge into evils as if without restraint,, and at the same time reject Divine things from toe heart.
