Its progress as an experience in 'the souls of men, and its historic:il development as a world religion, bnve hod their foun -dation in the conviction that Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified, in not dead, but living. His mystic presence in the souIh of men is what hint kept the faith alive, und has given to the gospel its continued power in redemption. How did this conviction that Jenus ia not dead nrise? Our lesson is the answer. The goxpcl story records the tradition an opened und empty tomb, nnil the fact that the discour jged iind helpless din'iplea saw the r Lord, found new hope in His ,pres ence, and received His comtutrjsion and the world of inspiration that sent them forth to world conqueat for the kingdom of righteousness and truth. , Founded on Faith Christianity was built upon their faith in the resurrection. We do not know how .lemis re turned. Wo cannot explain the miracle otherwise it 'would be no miracle.

Many good 'liritinns hold lo lb com pi i-to authenticity of the stories of the rctoir reel ion ns found in the New Tent anient, nnd they are dis posed to believe that ChriHt iani'v stands or falls with the mniter of the acceptance of the record in nil literalac nf detail nnd without question. Stories Are Dtfforent Others find certain difficulties There are dincrepnni'ies In the var inn Ntories. but thexe need not alarm an Imilv because these very discrep ancies dispose of nny idea of collus ion between writers who might have mode up. or invented the story of th" reMirreetlon. In tbcie dicrepneeies, however, some find the evidences of tradition growing up nrnund a grent fact anil experience. They tlmik that tradi tion tnnv have colored the record ot a very real experience. The question involved nre of too deep and too critical a nature for ilisruion In re. It i difficult to see how the din eipen cni.ld have had their despair changed into hope, and their pirit ualA'ision ami pn?don suddenly re vived without the experiences t h At one lesson describes.

No if on Sundays or at the Wed nesday evening prayer meeting you swell the creacendoa in the hope of "nrning everlasting ease you will be disappointed. old gospel hymns nre all wrong, writes Kev.

"If yon look over the hymns we "nng long years ngo. there is prnc ticnlly nothing, of service in them," writes Kev. Kuowd-u. "Whether everybody then was so tired that all they wished was rest, mil. conseipicnlty, the religious -ideals were made to fit the yearning, I do not know. "Hut the hymns teem with expres sions such ns flowery beds of ease," flowing with "milk nnd honey,' 'oceu nying a place in the celestial choir.' 'sitting at the foot of the throne," and so on. 'The world was pictured as a place I of continual conflict, but heaven was j a place to rest when the fight was j won and over. "There seemed to be n sensuous appeal that Is, an appeal to the joy of eating, drinking, even if it was only milk and honey, an appeal to the joy of resting and of giving forth song. "How can we fit that idea of heaven into our knowledge, of the constant work needed to keep the world on its fret. iSurety, even heaven must have some system of work. i "I believe that over there, we will have a great denl mor. work to do than her the portion given each of us, balanced to our abilities. "That is why I do not like hymns I which lull us to a belief in an eter nity of lolling upon soft clouds, play ing, with more or less accuracy, a glittering harp. "Such a thought is not an attrac tive heaven to me, and 1 believe would be nauseating to tho majority of persons. "Our reason tells us that whatever Supreme Intelligence rules the uni verse, it is constructive, not passive. That is why I think the old type of gospel hymns nre all wrong.
