reflections, 1. A plain, common

Truth and virtue the ends of all
rational inquiry 212. Spirit and

Revelation progressive 216. The
author places reason, operating by
intuition, induction and deduc-

His elasticity of import in the
scripture 218. A dangerous as-
sumption 221. In his supremacy
of reason, he crosses the track of
almighty power 222. The decla-

which affirms that the thing im-
plied in a proposition is impossi-

Theology, Christian, as a Science,
by Prof. L. P. Hickok, D. D. 457.
Christian Theology admits of
strictly scientific investigation
457. All science involves facts
and the laws of their being and
combination 458. In reference to
Facts 459. In reference to Prin-
ciples 460. Hipparchus and New-
ton 461. Theology requires the
same combination of facts within
their principles, as other sciences
462. The facts connected with
the Mission of Christ 463. Di-
vision of the field of Theological
Science into the ritual of reli-
gion-the doctrinal of religion-
the spiritual of religion 465. Dif-
ferent principles applied to the
explanation of ritual observances
466. Suppose this principle, that
they are designed to awaken emo-
tion- congenial with religious af-
fections 466
genuine devotion 467. Another
principle, that the officially ad-
ministered rite is the divinely
constituted channel for the super-
natural communication of the
spiritual grace 468. The true

Or as auxiliaries to

principle, the only one combining
all the facts, is this: the ceremony
is a divinely appointed symbol for
presenting and enforcing some
spiritual truth 470. The doctri-
nal in religion, the facts of the
plan of redemption 472. The
true system can be found and vin-
dicated 473. The true principle
here, which combines all the
facts, is the complete harmoniz-
ing of righteous authority with
mercy 474. Vary from this, and

our facts become confused 475.
The spiritual of religion, the most
important 477. Abundance of
facts respecting this inner vitality
478. The harmonizing principle
here, is faith in the Son of God
479. Three particulars as mat-
ters of practical importance-the
proper limits of philosophical
speculation 481. A man may be
speculatively wrong, yet, holding
essential truth, he is to be receiv-

ed as a Christian 483. Hereby
can we determine where the true
church of Christ is 484. An effi-
cient ministry hereby secured
485.

of Greece noticed 381.

Christianity not a system of philo-

of equal authority and dignity.
Word of God the supreme rule

venient summaries of scriptural

Reformed Churches should be
simplified 624. An evil that great
names should have been affixed
to them 626. Coleridge's concep-
tion of heresy 628. How far does
the Bible authorize creeds 629. A
simple summary of things to be
believed can easily be arranged

ble 633. Protestant sects should
form a visible union, as the true
catholic church 635. Peculiar
