F.
Faith. Influence of, upon Intel-
lectual Character, by Rev. C. B.
Boynton, 391. This a matter of
fact era 391. Danger of banish-
ing the true with the false as to a
spiritual world 392. Evangelical
faith not exclusively intended
here-see its influence among
the Greeks and Romans 393.
Features of their religion 394.
Characters of some of the spirit-
ual dwellers in that ancient
world 395. The idea of the
Lares beautiful 396. The origin
of this religious system to be
found in the earliest revelations
of God to man 397. The Greek
intellectually great, because of
his faith in the reality of a spirit-
ual world around him 399.
own age an era of physical rather
than spiritual life 400. Have
modern improvements awakened
the exalted powers of the soul?
401. Power of faith upon the
intellect as illustrated among the
Hebrews 402. Unparalleled in
a literary point of view 403. In-
fluence of faith upon intellect as
exhibited among the Pilgrims of
New England 404. Genuine
poetry on board the Mayflower
405. Christendom falls short be-
cause not baptized with the spirit
of the Gospel 406. The human
mind will yet surpass all her past
achievements 407. The result of
a true and controlling religious
feeling 408. Sanctified intellect
will effect glorious things 411.
The scholar and the Gospel min-
ister should stand side by side

periments, Grecian Democracy,
Roman Law, Christian Republi-

ernment the model of Grecian De
mocracy 4. The Areopagus, 5.
The perfection of this govern-
ment attained between 600 and
322 B. C. 6. Roman Law the se-
cond experiment 7. Its striking
characteristic, the power of law,

publicanism 15. Belongs not to

sovereignty of God 16. Yet not
a perfect model for all nations
17. The great cause of national

Holy Spirit's Influence. Necessity
of, in the work of Man's Re-
demption, by Rev. Seth Willis-
ton, D. D., 493. All parts of the
created universe alike dependent
on the Creator 493. But a spe-
cial influence to produce and
preserve holiness attributed to the
Holy Ghost-the Scriptures as-
cribe supreme importance to the
Spirit's influences--they represent
all not subject to it as under the
dominion of sin-a change of
character ascribed to it 495. Pre-
servation of holy principle-emi-
nence in holiness 496. Spoken
of as the most important particu-
lar in the qualification of minis-
ters 497. Spiritual harvests-the
millennium ascribed to it 498.
The orthodoxy of the Church
and ministry depend on it 499.
Comprehends all the good secured
by Christ's sufferings-all we ask
in prayer 500. The fellowship
of the inoral system-all true
happiness attributed to it 501.
Nature and extent of the Spirit's
agency 502. Exerts a direct
agency-the renovation of the
heart an operation peculiar to
God 563. A most mighty exhi-
bition of the power of God-the
Spirit quickens whom he will
504. Infant regeneration proves
direct agency 505. Direct agency
does not impair man's freedom
505. Does not paralyze human
effort-Spirit's operation not ne-
cessary to constitute an obligation
to possess holy character 507.
Exerted in such way as not to
affect our freedom 508. Does not
represent means of grace as use-
less 509. Harm of the moral
suasion scheme 510. Makes no
difference between the agency of
God and that of man-tends to
quench the spirit of prayer 511.
To produce spurious conversions
512. Strikes at the doctrine of
native depravity 513. The saints'
perseverance 414. Not likely to
promote faith and humility 515.

Extract from the book of Jasher
-Preliminary remarks 99. The
text not needed to confirm the
doctrine of Providence-yet may
be true 100. Not too difficult for
Almighty power 101. Singular
fact that, if a real miracle, it is
never once referred to by prophet,
apostle, or Jesus Christ-theories
invented to explain the passage-
some take it literally 102. Some
say God caused an extraordinary
refraction of the solar and lunar
rays 103. Difficulties as to this
view 104. Another opinion is
that unusual atmospheric phe-
nomena at the close of day sup-
plied the office of the sun, and by
poetic license called the sun and
moon 105. A highly wrought
figurative expression for a signal
victory in a single day 106. In
our own view, the passage is a
quotation-evidently an interrup-
tion of the narrative 107. Claims
to be a quotation 109. Reference
to the book of Jasher in 2 Sam.
1: 18, a seeming difficulty 111.
Other serious objections to re-
ceiving this passage as part of

the inspired word-contains in
itself the elements of its own de-
struction 113. Examination of
these 114-117. Remarkable that
such an event should have perish-
ed from the memory of man 117.
It is said this tradition was found
by Herodotus among the Egyp
tians 119. Not so in our opinion
120. Objection from the position
assigned to Joshua in respect to
the sun and moon 122. Is it re-
ferred to in Habakkuk 3: 11,
124. The impression left by the
passage is contrary to the cor-
rected and true narrative of the
campaign 127.

Lutheranism and the Reform: their

Time ap-

between them 132.
proaching for a union 133. The
Reform should not yield to Lu-
theranism 134. The ground-
work of Christianity with the Re-
formed, is that the word of God
is the source of faith and of the
Christian life-Luther's justifica-
tion by faith, 136. The Church
of England a reformed Church,
not Lutheran 137. Exclusive au-
thority of the word of God the
grand principle with the Reform
138. The Reform pre-eminently
the confession of the Bible 139.
Evangelism and Ecclesiasticism
the adversaries in the battle of
the 19th century 140. The Re-
form also places faith above the
Church 141. Evils resulting
from too strict an application of
the Lutheran principles 143. The
Reform also distinguished by a
liberal spirit of Christian charity
145. Exclusiveness a feature of
Lutheranism 146. A spirit of

fraternity in the Reform 148.
Not less distinguished for a genu-
ineness than profoundness 150.
High moral character 152. More
decided than Lutheranism in its
principles and progress-a princi-
ple, to abolish in the Church all
not prescribed in the word of
God 154. A difference between
these Churches as to liberty of
the Church and of the State 159
The Reform possesses freedom
and gives it to the State 162.
Christ and the Church every
thing to Calvin 164. The Re-
form will bring to the united
