Candler Building* ATLANTA* GA. By REV. E. D. ELLENWOOD, PASTOR UNI VERBALIST CHURCH I N' every community there la a cer tain group of religious leader* who devote themselves with a** eidu jus zeal to the defense of the Bible from nil enemies, real or Imaginary. Their earnestness and unfailing watch fulness are certainly to be highly com mended and faithfully emulated, even If the method and the spirit of their welfare be not always entirely In har mony with the manifest spirit of that religious life which they design thus to preserve nnd to foster. But It Is certainly an open question whether this defense of the sacred lit erature as conceived and conducted In r ’ many brains and from so many pul pits and printing presses, does not. In * great majority of Instances, defeat Its very object. The reason Is not very far ta seek. Zeal, unacco'mpanled by rea- *on anti enthusiasm, unhampered by Intelligence, may for a time hold In the leash of superstition the soul which presses forward eargerly In Its search after that truth which Is the beginning "f freedom, but ever the old restraint of the awesome regard of th* unknow able grows less and less powerful as the mind Increases Its capacity for In dividual thinking, until finally Its bursts the bonds of Its captivity and, swinging to the opposite extreme of the pendu lum, declare* Its disbelief In everything whfch will not admit of physical proof and demands for Its existence In the human consciousness the active em ployment of that sixth sense which we nave named faith. Thus does the misguided xealot, who Insists that all men shall find In the Bible only that which his own study has developed and shall Interpret It to be and to mean, that which his own thought has determined, become In very truth the Bible’s most powerful and most dangerous enemy. It la a deplorable fact, mournfully re iterated In nearly every, gathering of religious teachers and leaders today, that the study of the Bible Is not so general as It was twenty-five years ago. We dr* told that men and women are losing Interest In religious matter*. I do not believe that this I* true, men and women are not less religious. Their religion ls finding new modes of expression, that I* all. And. If th* study of the Bible has suffered somewhat of a decadence, It 1* due not to any actual IndlfTerence to religion, but rather to the attempt of overtealou* defender* of the Bible to force those who would gladly read and value It for It* true worth to And In It thrt which their rea son and extended study renders them unable to recognise. If a man of an earnest, studious and reverent mind And* himself utterly unable to any longer honestly accept a belief In the plenary Inspiration of the Holy Scriptures, must It then fol low that their power as a factor In hie spiritual development shall be lost to him? Shell the matchless epic poet ry, the stirring dramas, the splendid outbursts of faith and hope In song and prophecy, the compelling Ideals of th* decalogues, found throughout this In valuable collection of writings, the s* rlous literature of an ancient people, fall In their InAuence to mold and shape his character, simply becaust he Is no longer able to conceive these writings to he, In their entirely, the his tory of the chosen people of Qod?
