REV. DR. MYERS, the new incumbent of Tremont Temple, Boston, said in a sermon recently: ``There never will be again in this world such a thing as a new religion. The new religion is as old as infidelity, and its author is the father of lies. It would drive the supernatural out of the world. It would take your Bible and cast it into the fire. It bows Jesus Christ out without even a shudder, and with just as much howling and blasphemy as the mob had at the foot of His cross. It even puts an interrogation mark after the name of God Almighty Himself.''
Infidelity has its times and seasons, and the present age is one of them. It will run its course, as it has done in the past ages. It comes upon the stage in accordance with Scripture prophecy. ``There were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.'' 2 Peter 2:1, 2.
One thing is certain: ``Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.'' 1 Cor. 3:13.
