He took for , his text the words, 'IThe; Father of mer cies, and tbe God of all comfort" 2 Corinthians 1:3. ? ; The Pastor stated that when in In dia. China and Japan last year he was impressed with tbe indulgence of ninny amongst those peoples. ' He vis ited their temples to ascertain the sta tus of the worshipers.' Many seemed sincere, absolutely unmindful of any thing except their own worship. He made inquiry as to whether the Idol was regarded as the god, or merely as a reminder of tbelr god. He was assured tliut tbe Idol was kuown to be metal, stone, etc., and was used lu muc-b the same way that Catholics use the crut-ilix-tiot as worshiping the ininge. uui merely to assist id uxiuk reverence and tbe spirit of worship, Our Creed Idols Worse. .
