Christianity Is Not Profession but Life

By Editor

An infidel paper prints very many Gospel precepts and promises, and asks, "How many real Christians are there?" We reply that there are not as many as there ought to be; not as many as we wish there were; not as many as the Lord desires there shall be. One may call himself a Christian, but that does not make it so. A professed Christian who rejects Christ and His teaching is only an infidel, or free-thinker, parading in borrowed garments. A real out-and-out hypocrite, whatever his profession, is only an infidel. Christianity is not in profession but life.
