10. — The statements made in relation to the early life and religious experience of Martin Luther, may perhaps throw some light upon this subject. Earnestly desirous of living to God sincerely and wholly, it is said of him, that he " gave himself up to all the rigors of an ascetic Hfe. He endeavored to crucify the flesh by fastings, macerations, and watchings. Shut up in his cell, as in a prison, he was continually struggling against the evil thoughts and inclinations of his heart. Never did a ...cloister witness efibrts more sincere and unwearied to purchase eternal happiness. " At a somewhat later period, he was in the city of Rome ; and although he had received some greater light than at the period, to which we have just referred, he seems not as yet fully to have understood, how we can be for- given and sanctified by faith in Christ alone. " One day, " says the writer of his life ; " wishing to obtain an indulgence promised by the Pope to any one, who should ascend on his knees what is called Pilate's Staircase^ the poor Saxon monk was slowly climbing EXTINCTION OF SELFISHNESS.
