ON MAN AS A RELIGIOUS BEING. 143 ponding to this natural impression, the revelation of Christ informs us of lofty things. It tells us that the only Son of God took upon him the nature, not of angels, hut of man ; and that, after hav- ing lived and died for the good of his brethren of mankind, he opened up to them the gates of immortality. These, my brethren, are great discoveries ; jet they are discoveries which we are pre- pared by nature to receive. They are dis- coveries of boundless benefic...ence in God ; yet of a beneficence which man has at all times experienced, and which, in these revelations, has only completed a work which would otherwise have appeared imperfect. Be it our part, therefore, to embrace, with thankful and believing hearts, those glad tidings of salvation; and, fixing our eyes on " the author and finish- er of our faith" to behold exemplified in 144 ON MAN AS A RELIGIOUS BEING. him the real greatness and dignity of man. Finally, let us remember, that although man is made " but a little loicer than the angels, " he may yet fall into the lowest degradation ; and whether we look a- round us, or into our own hearts, let us be aware that we shall too often see and feel corruptions \vhich are unworthy of the nature which we have received.
