A Look Below.

There is no need for man to be proud. The wisest among them could never even find out of himself who are his own father and mother. He has to be told.

No more can he tell of himself what is his origin unless he is told. Adam himself, fresh from the hand of God, could no more have told how he got there than a babe just born. Man was not made self-sufficient.

All the thinkers put together could never think out the origin of one atom. All therefore who refuse to be told how the things that are have come into being, are doomed eternally to be "truth seekers" and never truth finders.

So it comes to pass that it is after all the "babes " – those who can trust God, who alone knows – that are wise, that have the true science which needs not to shift its base every few years.

How painfully foolish, not to say silly, does the "science falsely so-called " seem which, turning its back to the light, wanders about in the dark to ever come back to its starting point without having found what it seeks.

Then see the troop of traitors who call themselves "higher critics," trying to pose as superior minds because they have made shipwreck of faith and are groping in the same darkness.

It is a pitiable sight!
