JJBACTICAL CHRISTIANITY PUBLISHED FOB THB SPECIAL BENEFIT OF Non-Cb urchookbs. Tbue Christi, a Religion, intelligently under tood, comes not to add to men’s burdens, but o remove them. “ For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn tne world, but that the world through Him might be saved.’’ John iii, 17. Its eading doctrines, adapted to the use of his New Age, are summarised as follows:— There ia 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 devil 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 desire t o be one with them: and to make them ' happy | from Himself. The same three son ititute the essence of His wisdom; because '□ve and wisdom in God make one, and love wills these thing?, and wisdom accomplishes them. (True Christian Religion, No. 43.) The Word of God is Divine truth clothed n 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 vni, 31 •* Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men'should do unto you, do ye even so unto :them : for this is the law and the pro pbets.” 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 live the life Of heaven as is commonly believed, is evident from thia—that when anything presents itself that one knows to be insincere and unjust, to which his mind is disposed, he need 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 higher degrees of his mind are opened : and in so far as these are opened he sees what ie insincere and unjust; and in so far as he sees these evils they can be shaken off, for it ia impossible that any evil can be shaken off until it ia {seen. Thia is a state into which a man may'enter from freedom; for who is not capable of thinking n this manner? But when he has made a eginning all goods are wrought in him by the Lord, and He causes him not only to see evils, but also not to will them, and finally to become averse of them. This is meant by the Lord’s words, “ My yoke is easy and My burden light,” Matt. xi. 30' Bat it should be known that this difficulty of so thinking, and likewise of resisting evils, increase in proportion as a man from the will commits evils ; or 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 fallacies confirms them, and declares that they are allowable and good. But this occurs with those who in age of adolesence plunge into evils as if without restraint, and at the same lime reject Divine things from the heart.”—” Heaven and Hell." (No. 583).
