" But none the less had he been a " blasphemer, a persecutor, and injurious/' and would so have ended his days but for the interpos...i- tion of God. In respect of good intentions, zealous and self-sacrificing effort, knowledge of the Scrip- tures, prayer and religious exercise, he had nothing whereof to accuse himself, and yet had been all the while in the wrong, and dwelling in the weak and beggarly elements, an expression which seems as though intended to fit in with the conception of sin as a reverting to lower or elementary types.
