Doctrines were good enough In ttie days of Jesus and Paul and Calvin anil Luther ami Wesley, but tlie people are not accustomed to them nowadays. I have no fault to find with tuy Christian brethren in the ministry ub the various denominations. It Is not to me, bnt to the Lord, that they must give an account of their stewardship of their grand opportunities for deelar lng the Guepel of Christ. To their own Master they must stand or fall.
