“The Industrious Stone.”

A VERY curious and almost ridiculous example of adjusting the Scriptures to the theory of converting the world by the “industrious” use of present agencies, is found in Rev. C. S. Robinson’s late expositions of the Great Commission. He says; “We see the certainty of the world’s conversion. The industrious ‘stone’ shall fill the whole earth (Dan. 2: 35).” Suddenly and tremendously “industrious” indeed will be that Mighty Stone which smites the image with a grinding blow, so that it is broken in pieces and becomes like the chaff of the summer threshing-floors.—Rev. E. P. Marvin.
