Fragment

A correspondent calls our attention to a book called, "In His steps, or What would Jesus do," and suggests that a word of warning might be given regarding it. It is written from the standpoint of reform, and while there is much to stir up the conscience of those who think they should be improving the world, and much of righteousness in it, it is not a book calculated to lead in the simple path marked for us in the word "Christ is all." Ah! how even earnestness does not lead to subjection to God’s word. It is sad when even well meant efforts are thus contrary to the simple gospel of the grace of God, and a testimony of pilgrim separation from everything here. Beside fiction, which is always to be deprecated in holy things.
