STUDY THE BIBLE.

WHEN Mr. Moody was here he spoke of, and prayed for, the coming of some mighty preacher who would shake our great cities, and stir the land. A speaker at the Illinois State Association expressed a fervent desire to see a great leader who would unite the denominations. And now comes an earnest desire expressed at the Scottish assemblies, that some great theologian may arise who will be able to grasp the whole truth of the gospel, giving us a theology "more rational than Catholicism, more human than Calvinism, and more divine than Arminianism." Such a theologian may be among the future possibilities, but until he does come, perhaps it would be just as well to unearth our Bibles from the piles of commentaries and Sunday-school "helps" which have gathered over them, and read what Christ himself said.—Advance.
