If we see men and women always in their place at church, scrupu- lously careful in their observance of the Lenten fast, foremost in their subscrip- tions to all charities, we are alway sinclined to feel sure of their honesty and their goodness ; and so, it seems to me, that we should have commended the Pharisee of our Lord's time. But we must remember that the fault lies in the resting in these external things. No number of frequent- ed services, no careful bending of the head at the mention of... the sacred name, no abundance of alms are acceptable in God's sight without the spirit of devo- tion, the heart's contrition, the chanty which is love. Oh ! men and v/omen, if ^i)c (Bncpl^ of (Dnr liorb. 95 you and I could simply lay hold of this truth, '' The Kingdom of God is within you. " That is the practical point. It gives the worth and the meaning to every form. Each one of us has the spiritual kingdom of true manhood and true womanhood, with the power and liberty of every part of a man in it, within our- selves ; and while history again and again has shown the breaking down and crum- bling away of religions which have been tried, wholly without forms, relying only upon the basis of a spiritual isolation, I can well understand the honest endeavor to form such a religion.
