There is nothing in tlio Biblo that
staggors mo. There aro many things I
do uot understand, I do not protend to

poor God who could bo fully understood
by the human. Thnt would bo a vory
small Infinite that can bo measured by
the finite. Yon must not expect to weigh
tiie thunderbolts of Omnipotence iu an
apothecary's balances. Starting with
tho idea that God can do anything, and
that ho was present at tlio beginning,
nnil that ho is present now, there is
nothing in tho holy Scriptures to arouse
skepticism in my heart. Hero I stand a
fossil of tho ages, dug up from tho ter
tiary formation, fallen off tho shelf of
nu antiquarian, n man in the latter pirrt
of the glorious nineteenth century bo-
