Conversioh is the human side or a man’s part, re generation is the divine side or God's part. In the one instance man does the changing, in the other it is God who does the work. If people to-day were not so much like those of the long ago, who were referred to by the Lord as people who did not know and would not consider, and later as those who con tinually sought to hear some new thing, they would be able to understand & great many things that they now see through the glass darkly, would be seen clearly. Pity it is that a great many of our theological teachers and leaders, as well as many preachers, are muddying the waters of theol.?'y and making the tmnfs that God made clear as foggy as possible. The Lord gave us minds with which to think—heads to use in some other way than as mere hatracks. Alas! that so many people are void of thought! The spirit ig in the world to lead us into all truth, Jesus Himself said: “When the spirit of truth is come he will lead you unto all truth.” And if we were only as teachable and as leadable as we should be, long ago we would have been led unto truth. Change of Motives of Life. “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrugt and its fruit corrupt, for the tree is known by its fruit; the good man out of his good treasure bringeth forth good things; the evil man out of his evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.” Matt. xii:33-85. Out of the heart proceed the issues of life, and if the heart be bad all life must be bad; if the heart bleghrtlght, all the acts of life must be T . A man in one of our Southern States was an enthusiastic hunter. One day he ran across the nest of a wild turkey. Hunter as he was, he was thoroughly familiar with the habits, customs, life of the turkey, and so he decided that he would take the eggs, set them under a chicken hen and produce a good va riety of turkeys that were domestic and tame In their tendencies. The days passed and the time for hatching ar rived. With anxiety the hunter watched the results. The patient hen had per formed her duty. He noticed that the first little turkey that was hatched out jumped from the mest and started to run. Others followed. He was surprised that these tiny birds literally hit the ground running, but he need not have been, for they were simply true to their true nature. So with the unregenerate human heart. It can do no goo?'thing until changed. The wild turkey Is true to its nature. 'The bird was so born. Man that is born in sin and brought forth in iniquity, the ‘lnspiratlons of whose heart is evil con ‘unuﬂly can not until his life motives has been changed be and do what he shouid be and do. ~ God the Producer. This change can not occur until man is in subjection and obedience to the Lord of Glory. John i:l3 reads: “Which were born, not of biood nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” Again in 1 Cor. iii:6-7, Paul says: ‘I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.” What has man ever produced? What has man ever created? David cried out in the agony of his sins, ‘‘Create a clean heart with in me, O, Lord!” Man can take some thing already created and invent some thing out of it; change its form, but not alter its value. God omnipotent alone can create and make new things. Man yields, God does the work. All changes of heart are brought about solely through the power of God. Some will say that the doctrine of total depravity is not true, but Christ says, ‘““Ye must be born again,” even to Nicodemus, high born, and a ruler of the Jews. The man who doesn't believe in the doctrine of depravity and sin centers authority in self. Let man have ability to change himself and that power makes him wonderful. Recently Collier's Weekly carried the followinijn its edi torials, a quotation from the ‘‘Ladies’ Repository of 1853,” in regard to Emer son: “Ralph Waldo Emerson. We spent an hour not many evenings since listening to a lecture from this cele brated pantheist, were peculiarly struck at the self-complacent and oracular manner of the lecturer. He seemed to regard himself as the very embediment of all reason. This at first offended our ATLANTA LIVE STOCK By W. H. White, Jr., of the White Pro ’ vision Company.)

L. CARPENTER' & CO.'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW YORK, June 30.--Coton ruled very dull to-day with nobody desirous of making new commitments, pending the Government condition ﬂgures to morrow. The early rally on The Jour nal of Commerce report and cables did not hold and the market acted a trifle heavy at times, but was supported by the *leading longs. X Predictions for showers in Georgia and the Carolinas and late easiness in Liverpool probably had most to do with the seaback. sense of propriety. When, however, we came to re&t ¥hnt this man, accord ing to his own theory, is God, ‘A mani= festation of the infinite infinite forms,’ our wonder ceased. Why should not a man who congelves himself to be a part of God be oracular? This modern divin ity, however, does not ‘s’r.pur to have many features of resemblance to Jesus Christ.” Man Is a sinner, Christ is Saviour. Man can only be saved by grace through faith in Christ. Salvation is a gift of God. No wealth, power, abil ity on the part of man can bring about regeneration. Jesus says, “l am the way.” No man cometh to the Father but by Me. In so speaking He gives utterance to the words of one who has authority. A Secret Change. In this world of telephones, tele graphs, dictagraphs, phonographs, news papers, cables, gossips, etc., it is hard to keep a secret, but regeneration at first is known only by the one who ex gerlences the change, and by Geod, who ﬂng the chancos'e about. Jesus, in <a?el ng to Nicodemus about the new birth, says: “The wind bloweth where ft listeth, and thou hearest the voice thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh nor whither it goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit.” You see the results of the wind. Evidences are plentiful of the storm, In its wake you see trees twisted from their stumps and limbs hurled in every direction. You see houses blown over. You hear the sound thereof, but you know not when it came, nor whither it goes. Thus with the Spirit of God. The work is done by a song, a prayer, a word, a sermon directed by the Spirit and the life of a man is made new; the things that he once loved he now hates; the thlngia that he once hated he now loves. All things have changed. Old things. are become new--desires, will, loves, ambitions, hopes—all are new wills and intentions because life has been changed by the power of God. Direct Ageney of Holy Ghost. Look out there in the field as you e:ss along. There is a man hoeing. ith smooth, even strokes he cuts the sprigs of grass and the bushes that threaten to seriously injure the growing plants, and at the same time he draws the fertile, loamy soil up to the plants, A beautiful work it is. You go home and tell your wife about the perfectly wonderful Scoville hoe. Its sharpness and effectiveness is commented on; its thin, shiny steel blade is praised, and at length the wife, patiently listening, says, ‘But, after all, the work was done by the man and the hoe was merely the instrument.” God's word is the instrument. The Holy Spirit the direct cause. Lydia, that remarkable dealer in pur ples, anl also in divine love, was glo riously saved. Read Acts xvi:l4, “Whose heart the Lord opened to give heed unto the things which were spoken by Paul.” There we see God working upon the heart of Lydia. Also accompanying the words of the great ngostle to the Gen tiles. It is God who works in and through us to do His good will. He is the regeneration, we simply the instru ‘ments in his hand. He ls the motive power, we the lines of connection. | instantaneous. ~ Sanctification is a gradual work, a \cotmnual growth. Regeneration is in stantanevus. A child is born a perfect ‘child, but all the same it is a child. Not \a. man, mind you, but a child. Sanc tification is the development of life commenced in regeneration. At once 'the work of regeneration is done. Peter, on the day of Pentecost, preached to a crowd of people designated as ones who ‘put to death the Lord of Glory. They were sinners at the beginning of that 'day. They were saved at f{ts close. Under the words of Peter, accompanied by the Holy S{)lrh's power, they were convicted of sin, confessed Christ as their Saviour, were baptized into the church, and instantaneously the work was done. Read the Book of A¢ts and you will see how these babes in Christ grew into ‘stalwart men and women, who, scattered abroad by persecution, went everywhere preaching tne word, and how, as they grew daily in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, they continued to bring others to Him. After birth comes growth, and finally, following growth, comes frui tion. Lord make us all Thy children and then make us faithful soul winners and enable us to grow and work and de velop until we shall awake in Thy like ness.
