ETERNAL YOUTH .
Aids to Thought.-The Church includes the
world, not the world the Church. Man,
an image of the distinctions in the Divine
Nature. Good is good, and Truth, truth,
though not appreciated. Future glory,
the flower of present seed. Crutches, not
to be despised. The folly of haste. The
heirs of Heaven have Hell to conquer.
The Bible withholds as well as discloses
its secret. The advantage of the human
method of entering Heaven. The dis-
tinction between Truth and all descrip-
tions and theories of Truth . . .
Jesus revealing the Heart of God....
Aids to Thought. The light within man
corrected by the Word without.
The
devil, as the power of death, abashed
before the presence of Christ in the soul.
Faith sees with a higher light than
reason. Truth comes down to those
who cannot go up to her. The world's
method of Education dehumanizes as
well as humanizes. Man's will should
ground and root itself in God's Love.
Take heed lest in your Heaven the
Spirit of Hell should lurk. Heaven's
door into the soul shuts as the world's
door opens. Fear not sorrow. Let
Jacob earn the name Israel. There is
a righteousness which is very insufficient,
and there is an unrighteousness which
receives All-sufficiency. The pride and
folly of the self-intellect
The Wonderful Works of God .
Babes, world-types of HeavenlY INNOCENCE 161-172
Aids to Thought.-Better to be an imperfect
man IN CHRIST, than to be a perfect MAN
OF THE WORLD. Some who discomfort
You are comforted by you. Heaven, Hell
and the World appeal to their own in
man. Every man contributes some-
thing to the world's spiritual atmosphere 173-176
THE RECONCILIATION OF ALL THINGS
Aids to Thought. The FAITHFUL Creator.
Silent preachings. Death. The dis-
tinction between the mediate, and im-
mediate works of God . . .
THE EVERY-WHERE-PRESENT CHRIST
Aids to Thought.-The Church, a travailing
mother. Whoso does not crucify him-
self, crucifies Christ
INTIMATIONS OF MAN'S IMMORTALITY
177-189

193-206
Aids to Thought.-A little bird's sermon to a
sermon-maker. As is the soul, such is
the body. Home-influences meet those
who are going home. The tribes of
Israel represented by the stones in
Aaron's breast-plate. Nothing hidden
that shall not come abroad. Holiness
before happiness. Looking to the god
of this world, not "looking unto Jesus."
Evil and death hidden under apparent
good . . .
