85 in the soul ! And yet it is to be feared that many of liis followers know but little of it.
Some have merely an historic Christ. They receive the facts recorded of his life and death as the ground of confidence in Him as the Sav- ior of the world. They believe in that Christ who appeared in Judea eighteen cen- turies ago, and rest their hopes of salvation upon his finished work.

They are sound in the faith, and zealous for the honor of the Gospel ; and yet Christ is too much in their creed, and too little in their hearts.
