" But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out."— Num. xxxii. 23. Should we not have expected a fiercer, stronger form of Divine threatening? Such words as these, perhaps—" Ye have sinned against the Lord and the thunder- bolt of the Lord will strike you." Does it not seem a lame conclusion to tell these men that if they broke the Divine command the result of their sin would one day overtake them, that the seed of their own sowing would one day ba a seed of bitterness. Is this wild language consistent with our thought of the majesty of God 1 Nay, verily, for we have never thought worthily of that majesty. We have thought of Him as a Being who shall destroy ns if we do not obey Him. It is not He that shall destroy, it is ourselves. He wants to save us from ourselves. His is not a threatening, it is a warning. Thy sin carries her sting in her own bosom and the infinite Love ihat is hid in the bosom of the Father yearns to find it and to extract it ore it shall find and destroy thee. lessly buriei „ ..„.. — „ . -. which my life has left behind ; undo that which my life his done amus; repair the places I have wasted ; bind the hearts I have wounded ; overrule my acts ; take up my yesterdays into Thine own golden light; transfigure them ; let my former self find me no more ! ,,,,,,•-„ The past is under " the Blood of Jesus Christ who cleanseth from all sin.
