A. Campbell on the Law

By Editor

Bro. Carver of Iowa City has furnished us another item of testimony from A. Campbell on the Law. It is found on p. 309 of his debate with Purcell, as follows:

"Though as respects the divine law, as already observed, they are equally transgressions of it. Hence, as James the apostle avers, 'He that offends in one point,' though he should keep every other, 'is guilty of all.' The gentleman, then, may defend his 'white lies,' and other violations of God's law, as he pleases; but God will show the universe that, as respects his character, as Lawgiver and King, the least infraction, as respects man, is the highest insult that can be rendered to the Lawgiver."
