That Is it Exactly.

By Jesse Dorcas

In the concluding remarks of a sermon on “Christianity a National Law,” delivered by the Rev. R. G. Green, in 1874, and published in the Christian Statesman, May 8, 1875, we find the following: “We may infer, that the great governmental problem with man never has been, and never will be—Religion or not?—but always—What religion? This, then, is the form of the question now before the American people.”
Can a question of the magnitude of the one before us be stated in fewer words? Shall we have a pure Bible religion, or a mixed and adulterated one? Let every one carefully settle this question “before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the Lord come upon” us, and be ready for the event.
