Let no one suppose that 1 am contending that
a very high cult lire of mere intellect cannot be
reached without, this religious element. But
there is a continent of «litierem «• la-tween the
student who has simply mental drill, ami that
one who is trained in the broad scuse lux nature
d< mauds.
As an illustration of wluit the mind without
its God can do, Athens will stand as an im
perishable monument. But while her intellect
spaikled iu all her paintings, statuary, btstories
aud orations, her morals Till never command
admiration. Her training was the cold, rigid
glittering steel of the warrior's blade.
A creature ot her literature carved a female
figure from stone. It was s > beautiful that he
fell in love with it. But there it stood in its Sur-
passing beauty—cold, lifeless, conscienceless,
heartless marble. The artist lookctl up to heav
en and prayed the gods to breathe life into it,
and make it a suitable companion for him. Sowith
all her culture, it was grami ami complete aud
forcible iu some respects; along some lines the
Attienimi mind is vet unsurpassed, and some
poiuts in her mental drill may challenge the ad
miration of ages yet to come ; but the chill ot
marble was upon it. It needed to look up to
heaven iu juayer that a great moral impulse
might be infused into it ; that a pure spiritual
life might course through her veins.
Since the age of Christianity most colleges aud
universities have been more or hss penetrated
with the Spirit under whose dispensation we
live, and the cheering effects are pateuttoall ob
servers. No doubt the great advances already
made bv the onrushiug of these peutecostal
forees through history, planting anil elevating
great centres or learning; extending ami puri
fying civilization ; and these great npreaehiiigs
after true manlmod, are only «'arnests of the tri
umphs vet to come. Blind ¡is some peoph' are
to tlie fact, tins ¡ige is fraught with the powers
of the risen Christ; allupami down th«1 earth
are being heard tin fooffalls of promises fultill-
cil to him by the Father. This « «lilicc now be
ing net apart to its mission of light is simply an
other star in the galaxy of Christ's glory which
has been dereed should till tin earth.
My friends, fear not those scholars and educa-
tors’v. ho seem to think that everything ortho
dox and Biliical must be cither pushed aside or
trampled ttmler foot. Their effort is like Jonah’s
gounl, it promises much; it must have its brief
hour; but it will surely wither before the vehe
ment east wind of thè Spirit who has planted
knowledge in the earth liy His own right band.
That training that is without God is also with
out hope in the world. The ages will come,
more ami more, to see the stupidity of that sci
ence which leaves out the God of science. For
cibly is the all-important lesson being taught,
ami swiftly is it b< ing learned, that piety docs
uot argue a feeble capacity. And more fully
and more grandly is the lesson being learned
tluit ".revelation is the great strengthener of
reason, that the march of mind which leaves the
Bible in the rear is an advance, like that of our
first parents in Paradise, towards knowledge,
but at the same time towards death.”
There is an advance step to be taken by schol
ars and teachers, and especially by colleges and
universities, for they teach the teachers. That
step will be to give more prominence to the
Spirit of God in teaching, developing mind ami
forming character. When every class-room be
comes a temple lor the Holy Ghost, we may ex
pect speedily to see the nations of the earth ren
ovated. This irill be an advance; not to rille
and legislate God out of history and out of hu
man affairs, but to bring Him closer to the af
fairs and the hearts of humanity. Some think
ers are raking this advanced step, and are recog
nizing the power of God over mind as well as
matter.
A prominent teacher in speaking of men who
have lmd most to do with »Imping the world for
goo«l, says:
“They lielievcd that they could know some
thing of the character of God, and that they
might reasonably aspire to grow in likeness to
that character. This belief has been the root
out of which has grown, I will not sav all, but
certainly much of the finest flower ot morality
that has bloomed on earth.”
But while almost all Christian teachers admit
tlie eftect of the religious element on character,
they are not united iu admitting that the intellect
is also gainer.
Yet, this is an advanced step which should be
taken.
In speaking of the influence of the Spirit upon
fallen humanity, Frederick W. Robertson says:
“Just as if the temperature of this northern
hemisphere were raised suddenly, ami a miglitv
tropical river were to pour its fertilizing inun
dation over the country, the result wouhl be the
impartation of a vigorous and gigantic growth
to the vegetation already in evixtence, and at
the same time the development of life in seeds
and germs which had long lain latent in the soil
incapable of vegetation in the unkindly climate
of their birth. Exactly in the same way, the
flood of a divine life, poured suddenly into the
souls of men, enlarged and ennobled qualities
which bail been used already, and at the same
time developed powers which never could hav<
become apparent in th«' cold, low temperature of
natural life.
Can we suppose that such a marvelous change
can take pia«'«' and the intellect not be sensibly
effected by it? To do so wouhl be to place too
low an estimate upon that grandest a nd most far-
reaching of all the work which God does for the
souls of men : That of regeneration. But upon
this somewhat difficult point I will be content
with giving vou the words of the silver-tongued
Melville:

Repairing, in their golden urns, draw light.”
The diffusion of knowledge is another outgrowth *
the Spirit of God among the nations in connection witl
training. Edward Everett, in one of his orations,
shows that one tendenoy of the world has been to concen
trate learning as a means of power ; getting it into the
hands of the chosen few. The spirit of the Christian
religion says to the scholar: “Go ye into all the world,
set my torch in the shadow of every darkened hovel,
and pour my kindling beams into every benighted
mind, puryfy every heart by corruption tainted, until
the nations of the earth shall walk in the light there
of.” And when from these radiating central suns and
ovm
stars of learning the dark parts of the earth shall be
flamed through and through with heaven’s light, then
shall it be echoed from class room, from church spire
and from college observatory : “Christ being exalted
by the right hand of God. and having received the
promise—He hath shed forth this which ye now see
