Bloodless Beliefs C HARLES F. REITZEL points out that an undertaker can fix üp a corpse, from which he has extracted the blood, so that it looks really lifelike. And the mourners at the funeral are apt to say of the dead, “Doesn’t he look natural ? So lifelike; one feels as though he ought to speak to him.” And they often do speak to thé dead in the casket, but there is no response from those lips that are cold and still in death. And the fact that the one in the casket looks as though he is alive, doesn’t stanch the flowing tear, nor does it bind up a single ;broken heart. The tragedy of the seeming lifelikeness only taunts the hot tears of sorrow as well as aggravates the sharp pains of bereave ment. It is even so with these bloodless, life less and lightless heresies, Mr. Reitzel declares some of them look so real, so lifelike, that one feels like speaking to them, and thousands of dupes of the devil have been led so to do. But they have no speech for us in return, no responsive message for our poor, empty, aching hearts ; no, not so much as a single word of comfort by which to dry up our tears of sorrow. The very sham of their hol lowness only mocks us in our distress and helplessness. O man with a bloodless re ligion, “If the light that is in thee be

T he tru e te x t of St. John XVII. and other p assages from th e G ospels resto red an d established. By R. McCORMACK T HE margin of the Revised Version shows that there are many places where there is some doubt as to the true text of Scripture. This book points out that God has “not left Himself without witness,” but as He has preserved His Word as a whole from destruction, so He devised a means by which the true text might be established. This little book ex hibits. briefly the method to be followed. Besides pointing out an error in all manu scripts in St. John 17, it proves that St. Mark, in the opening words of his Gospel, did’ not make the blunder which the Re vised Version and critics generally have attributed to him. “Mr. McCormack has laid all lovers of truth under a great obligation by. his painstaking and prodigious labors in a field of exploration in which he stands practically alone. His great book, The Heptadie Structure of Scripture, was an eye-opener to many students. In the present volume. Seven in Scripture, our author takes one chapter, the 17th of St. John, and discovers that the sacred number 7 (in the orig inal Greek) permeates every verse, section, .etc. It Is an amazing fact—Immanuel’s Witness, Rev. Samuel Schor. “This book should be of peculiar interest tó pro phetical students.”—The Record. “7?hose.who are acquainted with Mr. McCormack’s elaborate work, The Heptadie Structure of Scripture, will J welcome this further short publication. Its shortness is in no way commensurate with the high value of the book. Here within reach of human study is irrefragable proof of the Divine origin of every word, indeed every letter of the original record of this sacred prayer (St. John 17). For this and for all his labors in this subject the Bible student is under deep indebtedness to the author. His book deserves careful reading and careful study.”—Bible League Quarterly, Dr. Basil F. C. Atkinson. “Mr. McCormack builds up a powerful case which deserves to be studied by all who wish to understand the inwardness of the sacred Word.”—Life of Faith. By the Same Author. Cloth Boards $2.00 ‘THEHEPTADICSTRUCTURE OF SCRIPTURE” With a Chapter on Seven and Four in Nature. “That the number 7 is common in scripture every schoolboy knows. That the sacred number, however, lurks in the most unexpected places of Holy Writ, that indeed it enters into the very structure of the volume, it has been left to Mr. R. McCormack to re veal. Wonderful as his discoveries of seven are. his inferences are still more amazing. The book is a monument of patient and almost incredible toil.”— Expository Times. “ One marvels at the amazing amount of research underlying all this, carried out by scholarly methods, yet the facts are presented in a simple way. A val uable contribution to Biblical study, and to thè strengthening of faith in the Word of God.”—The Life of Faith. “Only occasionally does a reviewer have sent to him an original book. Most books are a repetition of what has been written by others. To open a book and find a new line of thought well worked out is a surprise. Mr. McCormack's book is of this character. The Bible student will find here a mine of sugges tion which will greatly enrich his knowledge of the Word of God. The author is no visionary. The book is not fanciful, but sober exposition. I com-, mend it to all who wish more Bible knowledge. It is worth possessing. On an average one book of forty reviewed goes into the reviewer's permanent library. This one goes in.f^Mr-Professor Frank S. Weston, D.D., in the Toronto Evangelical Christian. “Why despair of the complete restoration of the text of Holy Writ? To Mr. McCormack's learned researches in his monumental work, The Heptadie Structure of Scripture, we must refer all those who seek for a key..............These really amazing pages.” —The Old Book and the New Age, by P.
