songs, 107; with the devotional
sentiment of New Testament, 110;
the power of religious sentiment,
has been lessened by the progress
of physical science, 114; also by
imperfect conception of the love
of God as presented in the gospel,
115; also by the general good
order and prosperity to which
society has attained, 117; a want
of power on the part of Christi-
anity as a whole the result of this
weakness of the religious senti-
ment, 118; the first step towards
a restoration of this power of the
religious sentiment to become
aware of the facts of the case,
119; this power cannot hope to
be regained by renewed manifes-
tations of divine power nor by
setting aside the results of science,
119; nor by an immediate action
on the emotions themselves, 121;
works of charity cannot take the
place of true worship, 121.

Divine Agency in the Establishment,
Administration, and Triumph of
Christ's Kingdom, article by Pres.
Samuel Harris, 686; the kingdom
of Christ carried on by a divine
agency, 686; this agency historical,
687; this fact the great difference
between Christianity and ration-
alism, 687; points wherein Chris-
tianity and rationalism are in
agreement, 688; and in conflict,
688; rationalism in rejecting mir-
acles precluded from admitting
the existence of a personal God,
690; excludes God in the same
way by means of its doctrine of
the sufficiency of human reason,
690; the fundamental principle
of rationalism necessitates the de-
nial of redemption and the ignor-
ing of sin, 692; God's action in
redemption involves the miracu-
lous, 694; it constitutes a revela-

tion, 696; God's revelation of
himself primarily by his action,
and especially by his action in
redemption, 696; revelation by
words secondary to revelation by
actions, 697; a revelation by words
possible after a revelation by
actions, 698; revelation not an
end in itself but an incident of the
divine action in redemption, 698;
miracles not simply seals of the
truth of revelation, but part of the
divine action in redemption, 700;
the knowledge of God thus re-
vealed in redemption a moral power
in the administration of his king-
dom, 701; God's action continued
through all generations in the
Holy Spirit, 703; opposition be-
tween this doctrine and Romanism,

law that grace encouraged sin,

Idea of Christ's Kingdom on Earth,
in itself and in its History, Proof
that it is from God, The, article
on, by Pres. Samuel Harris, 302;
the idea of Christ's kingdom an
existing power in human thought
and action, 302; this idea in itself
a proof of its divine origin, 304;
the import of this idea stated,
304; Christ's preaching of his
kingdom explicable only on the
ground that it is from God, 307;
our Saviour's ministry cannot be
understood without this doctrine
of his kingdom, 308; Christ taught
this doctrine not as a speculation,
but as a gospel, a promise certain
to be realized, 309; if this doctrine
be not true Christ must be an
impostor, 311; this doctrine of the
kingdom in contrast with the his-
tory of human thought in heathen
nations; heathen nations desti-
tute of the idea of a kingdom of
God on earth, 313; the relation

of Christ's teachings to the pre-
vious literature of the Jews, 314;
this literature cannot be accounted
for without admitting its super-
natural origin, 315; Christ's com-
ing at the appointed time and
claiming to be the predicted King,
316; the relation of Christ's doc-
trine of the kingdom to the history
of the world after his coming,
317; Christ's conception of his
kingdom likely to have been pro-
nounced impossible to be realized
by his hearers, 318; God's kingdom,
like the sun, reveals itself, 320.

Incarnation, The, article on, by Prof.
John A. Reubelt, 43.
Instinct, article on, by Prof. John
Bascom, 654; three forms of ner-
vous and mental phenomena, 654;
the first a merely vital nervous
fact, 654; the second found in the
senses, in the memory, and the
consequent muscular action, 655;
a third, more purely mental, that
of judgment or thought, 656;
these three classes typically dis-
tinct, though passing into each
other, 656; the three found in
man mutually modifying each
other, 657; instinct falls in part
into the third class, 657; examples
of the second class very abundant,
658; these three classes coexistent
in man's vital and intellectual
constitution, 659; two of these
classes to be found in the action
of brutes, 660; the peculiar form
of the facts of animal intelligence
a proof of the sufficiency of mem-
ory and sensation to explain the
mental phenomena of brutes, 661;
another proof found in the limits
of animal knowledge, 663; answer
to the objection drawn from re-
markable instances of brutal sa-
gacity, 664; a third proof found
in the growth of the intelligence of
animals and in the method of its
transfer, 666; instinct, its meaning,
668; the instinctive act has its
basis in the physical state of the
animal, 668; instincts a lower
form of purely nervous activity,

669; instincts thus allied to known
forms of vital action, 669; the
excitation in instinct to be referred
often to specific organs, 669; in-
stinct often attached directly to
the senses, 670; we find analogous
actions in our own experience,
671; instinct thus with ease united
to other forms of activity, 671; the
largest possible modification of the
conduct by the senses in connection
with instinct, 672; instinct unites
easily with the knowledge gained
by the senses, 672; a third reason
in the correspondence of powers
implied in it to the serial develop-
ment of the nervous system in
the animal kingdom, 673; the
nervous system in the radiata,
674; in the mollusca, 674; in the
vertebrata, 675; examples of
wonderful instinctive development
in the lower animals.

Justice what is it? article on, by
Leonard Withington, D.D., 235;
some of our most obvious ideas
obvious only to the superficial
thinker, 235; justice an example,
235; what is justice? 235; it is a
growing idea, 236; the idea con-
fined by Hume to property, 237;
property not the limit of justice,
239; utility not the object of
justice, 240; the importance of
justice seen in its very nature, 244;

God's, 249; justice as applied to
the divine kingdom, 251; design

benevolence in the mind of God,
256; bearing of justice on the idea
of mercy, 257; the mixing of jus-
tice and mercy necessary to the
welfare of states, 258.

Methods of Perpetuating an Interest

in Hearing the Gospel, article on,
by Prof. Edwards A. Park, 334;
the peculiar doctrines of the Bible
should be unfolded, 334; theolog-
ical discourses not necessarily un-
attractive, 336; importance of
the rational presentation of mys-
terious truths, 337; danger of
mistaking one's own absurdites
for incomprehensible truths, 338 ;
cheerfulness should be imparted
to the ministrations of the sanc-
tuary, 339; what is true on this
point of the doctrines of the gospel
also true of its institutions, 341;
the Lord's supper a festival of joy,
342; there should be an aim to pro-
duce immediate and visible results,
344; the course of teaching should
be diversified, 345; the Bible a
model for the preacher in this
respect, 346; no objection to the
inspiration of the Bible that it is
so diversified in its style, 347;
the cheerfulness of the tone of the
pulpit a preparation for the sombre
truths of the gospel, 348; revivals
of religion creating a necessity
for peculiar variety in our minis-
terial service, 349; certain minor
methods of giving variety to the
ministrations of the sanctuary, 351;

the services of the sanctuary should
be appropriate, 353; they should
be appropriate to the theme of
the discourse, 353; appropriate
to the hearers, 354; the Saviour's
example in this respect, 355; these
services should be appropriate to
the preacher himself, 356; the
preacher should speak with au-
thority, 356; he should make the
principles of goodness prominent
in his ministrations, 357; in all
real worship the truth of God
shines in it and around it, 358;
the preacher should promote the
divine glory by promoting the re-
generation and sanctification of
his hearers, 359; he should so
exhibit the gospel as to guide his
hearers in the religious discharge
of their civil duties, 360; should
not abstain from all allusion to
political affairs, 361; nor enter
too much into the mere details of
politics, 363; various objection-
able methods of alluring men into
the sanctuary, 364.

characterized by freedom and un-
