FROM OUR EXCHANGES

with contributions from H. L. Haywood

[Christian Register.]

Men build supports for religion,—forms of worship, statements of faith, methods of spiritual discipline. And religion, a living thing in the midst of human life, outgrows these supports. Experience, ever reaching out in new directions, and truth, ever coming to us by new avenues, become larger than the old supports of faith and spiritual life. When Isaiah said that Jehovah had had enough of burnt offerings, that He said "incense is an abomination," and "your appointed feasts my soul hateth." he was but one of many men in a long series, through the generations, who have broken the hold that venerable forms had upon living religion.
