vation, and to denounce all free inquiry, every at- tempt at rising beyond the past and present attain- ments of man, as the pride of rebellious reason. But this surely was not the creed of St. Paul, who, in drawing the likeness of a religious man, a true Chris- tian, describes the character of one devoted to the cause of truth, and to the advancement of knowledge, wheth- er it be sanctioned or not by the professed advocates, and acknowledged oracles, of religion. "Brethren, " he says, "I count
... not myself to have apprehended, but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark. " And what is the mark of the Christian ? It is the " stature of perfect men " ; we are called to "go on to perfec- tion, " nay, to " be perfect even as our Father in heaven is perfect. " Civilization is founded on the desire of man to im- prove his present condition ; religion consists in the tendency of human nature to infinite improvement.
