Overview

Excerpt from A Peep Into Sacred Tradition With the Evidence and Arguments on Both Sides of the Question Our days pass like a shadow, and Wlll soon be numbered - Lwe shall be laid in the silent grave. 'will man live when the body is dead '3 Is there a spirit home beyond the tomb? Momentous query l 'ifw'any com munication has come from that unknown land, mingle it not with the errors of men. Falsehood will work more evil under a sacred garb than in its own native dark colors. It is worse in the church than in the world, and more hateful in the pulpit than at the bar, If it exist in the bible, it should be sooner exposed than if it were in a newspaper or a novel. From the intermixture of error with truth have sprung many hard and revolting features in the creeds of men. Fals ehoods in the bible would creep into the faith of the church, appear unreasonable, produce contention, multiply clashing creeds, and be like the wild gburds in the poisoned pottage, when the young prephets cried out, there is death in the pot. Reader, there were many religious books in ancient times, and they were voted sacred, or profane, by uninspired men, who knew no better about them than an ecclesiastical body ofi our own day. Shall we count them sure guides merely on account of their antiquity 2 No. Let us investigate, and judge for ourselves. Truth is the guiding star that will lead us to happiness.
