tention of its Founders, The, arti-
cle on by Joseph P. Thompson,

Christianity asserted to be perma-
nent in the intention of its found-
ers, 224; Christianity evidently
from God, and designed to be the
only hope of the world as to moral
progress, 224; Christianity re-
garded by some as a stage in the
natural development of the race,
225; the Bible asserted by some

tianity denied to be a supernatural
religion, and one which was meant
to be permanent, 227; citation from

cer, 227; the question of the per-
manence of Christianity a vital
question, 229; statement of the
question, 229; Christianity not a
natural development of human
thought, but an incoming of divine
thought, 230; the apostles, with
one exception, learned all directly
from Christ, 230; an unconscious
preparation for a purer faith, 231;
Christianity a development of Ju-
daism, 232; citation from Merivale
in proof, 233; the Gospel meant
to be made known to all nations,
234; Christianity proved by ex-
perience to be adequate to the
needs of human society, 235; the
Bible adequate to the demands of
man's spiritual nature in the most
advanced stage, 236; the Hebrew
portraiture of nature judged by
Humboldt to be correct, 236; this
more and more confirmed by sci-
ence, 237; an impenetrable mys-
tery in nature conceded by ration-
alists, 238; Christianity able to

to the uncovering of the statue of

by Andrew P. Peabody, D.D., 440;
Prof. Cooke's Religion and Chem-
istry characterized, 440; the work
a treatise on natural theology, 440;
the argument from design objected
to on the ground of our ignorance
of final causes, 441; knowledge of
final causes not needed in order to
prove design, 443; the chemistry
of the atmosphere proves the adap-
tation of means to ends, 444; were
the atmosphere a simple substance
design could not be so easily in-
ferred 445; the atmosphere con-
sidered as a self-perpetuating sys-
tem, 447; objection drawn from
the development theory, 448; no
relation of cause and effect to be
traced in this view of the subject.
448; organic existence and animal
life everywhere show creative pur-
pose, 450; the development theory
confounds adaptedness with causa-
tion, 451; the phenomena of na-
ture clearly prove design and a
designing mind, 451; science has
shown that all power belongeth
unto God, 453 does the universe
prove the infinity and eternity of
God? 454; does it prove the moral
attributes of God? 455; science
proves utilities and beneficent ad-
aptations, 456; divine providence
an article of natural religion, 458;

ly to man's spiritual constitution

theology or religion susceptible of
two different meanings, 464; an-
alysis of Cooke's Religion and

best fitted to keep Christians in

to form such organizations a long-
ing after the unity of the church,

the two great subjects of human
thought, 620; Christ called the

the Acts, 51; applied only by
Christ to himself, 51; a prepara-

tament, 69; the prophecies con-
tained in Genesis iii. and in Psalm
viii., 70; passages that had refer-
ence originally to David and Solo-
mon, 71; danger of undervaluing

the first temptation to call in ques-
tion our Lord's sonship and divin-
ity, 133; such a temptation ex-
ceedingly natural, 133; such a
temptation very severe, 134; not
likely that Jesus would perform
any miracle at the devil's bidding,
134; the first temptation to be re-
garded as a specimen, 134; the
method pursued in the second
temptation different from the first,
135; the third temptation the ap-

our good, 534; the importance of
worship shown in the very struc-
ture and contents of the Bible, 534;
spirituality of worship, 535; spirit-
uality of worship does not imply
that places and seasons may not be

set forms of worship, 539; forms
of spiritual worship may vary, 540;

lence as developed under the gos-
pel, 555; reading and meditation in
the Word of God a part of worship,
556; preaching as related to wor-

the work, 186; Ewald's Geschichte
Christus und Seiner Zeit, 186;
outline of his theory of the origin
of the Gospels, 187; his Life of
Christ necessarily unsatisfactory
and defective, 188; not, however,
without value, 189; Hase's Das
Leben Jesu, 190; assumes that
Christ was a mere man, 191; little
to choose between Hase and
Strauss, 192; inferior to Ewald in
depth and earnestness of character,
193; Clarke's translation of the
work, 193; Lichtenstein's Lebens-
geschichte des Herrn Jesu Christi,
