To remove man's faith in it would lie to shake the world to its foundations.

He had an immaculate birth—there can be no such thing. He descended from a line of kings—He came of the hum blest ranks. He worked miracles— miracles never happen. He raised the dead—the dead have never been rais ed. He rose from the grave Himself —nobody has ever risen from the grave. < hrist's Mission. Then consider the conflict of opin ion aliout His mission and teaching. He claimed to be the Messiah—Ho never claimed to 1st tho Messiah. He said He was the Son of God, and. in effect, the equal of God—He said He was the Son of God in direct commu nication with God. but far beneath Him. He said that after this life Ho would appear to establish the king dom of heaven on earth—He said the Kingdom of Heaven war already in tho heart of man. He said His mis sion as the only beloved Bon of God was to save the world from the wrath of Go^ by dying an agonizing death at the hands of man. He said something far simpler, more natural, more capable of comprehen sion. more exalted and more noble. Then think how the church He founded has split into fragments on the rock of these and other differ ences. He was the prince of peace, yet the fiercest battles the world has ever known have been fought about the standard of Hi* name. He said: "Revet not evil." Yet all the nation* tailing themselves Christian, main tain standing armies whose least busi ness it is to do what he condemned. He said; Tike no thought for the morrow what ye shall eat or what ye shall put on ."
