6. The changed emphasis in argument. We must not put our truth upon insumcient basis. The sin of resting faith upon speculative theory. 6. Hints as to method. o Beason may be pure and yet not convincing. We may prove too much and lose the sense of reality. b Prefer the short road in argument. Reasoning may grow tedious and defeat its end. c Prefer the effective argument. 7. Eefutation. a Positive teaching often the best refutation of error. Kef utation should not be used without clear demand. E...rrors may often be met incidentally. 6 We must not ignore refutation. It supplements the truth. We must be sincere. Sincerity demands: (1) The accurate statement of objections; (2) the meeting of objections with the sole desire for truth ; (3) we are to seek to turn the objection into proof. Errors are often half-truths. Befebences : Broadns. " Preparation and Delivery of the Sermon." pp. 158-213. Phelps. " My Note-Book, the Materials of Sermons." Pattison.
