(2) 34 FlUST PuiNCIPLE, ^, That we take all along with us. But we seek here to be clear as to what this loundation is. We want to tell men, seeking repentance under a mistake laid on them, by an emasculated popular religionism, what repentance really is. The Gospel squares' with human nature's needs, and life's necessities. Vv' hen we clear it of (he technical phrases of metaphysic theology, and reduce it to plain English, as it was preached eighteen hundred years ago in plain Greek, we find it... commends itself to practical and reasonable men still. The man vrho seeks repentance, has but to turn round on his sin, and strike at it with all his power. His sorrow, his internal struggle, his bitterness of grief may be less or more. The point is that he shall know his friends, and know his foes, and in God's Name take his place as a redeemed man. He has but to rise, and looking at the ruin that is dragging him down, face it, as Goo's man, for just what it is, utter ruin to him ; and fight it, and, if need be, die fighting it, knowing that to be the only course of salva- tion for him or any being made, as he is, in God's image and not the devil's, in this world or in any world, where the Lord is King.
