I believe He is bringing in the kingdom of God.” ' < There is not m any of the three a definite statement concerning the four great essentiai doctrines of the Bible,— (1) The Infallibility of the Bible. flesh n Wm +^n<^ ^esus Christ, as God manifest in the flesh, (d) .Salvation through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ. (4) the Physical Eesurreetion of Jesus Christ from the grave However they are intended to convey an impression that thev believe what we profess to believe concerning the fundamental doctrines. , 1 ■ can always find out exactly what a man does believe by asking him definitely if he believes these four essentials, and if he evades answering in clear, simple, unmistakable English, then you know for a certainty that fie does not believe—what the Bible so plainly teaches—that “ holv men of old spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. ” After the resurrection, our Lord walked with the two disciples on the way Emmaus and, to correct their unbelief, used these words § ®low 0* heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to have entered into his glory’ ” and then 1 ' all the and a11 B pr0Phets> he expounded unto them in ail the scriptures the things concerning himself.” (Luke 24 :25-27) Afterwards, the same night, in the upper room, He said: on These ar® words which I spake unto you, wihile I was yet with you that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms concerning me.” ’ ana in tne I N B B I ™ea1n anything these words mean that our Lord set His seal to the whole of the Old Testament, and the theme of the Old Testament was Himself. He set His seal to the story,of the fall of man; to the cloth- mg of Adam and Eve by the shedding of blood; to His own Deity as the seed of the woman; to the personality and power of Satan and his final overthrow. 1 USe beautiful words and say beautiful things about Jesus B must stand with Him as He holds the manuscript of the H B H m His hands and sets His seal to its infallibility from Genesis- to Malachi. There is but one way for the teachers to do if they are true be lievers m the Word of God, and that is, to set their seal alongside of His seal and say “ Amen” to Jesus. -T .
