Gospel, Influence of in liberalizing the
Mind, 419; subordinate effects of
the gospel, 420; reason why many
preachers have not benefited the
intellect, 420; in order to benefit
the mind, the gospel must be stud-
ied as a science, and as adapted,
in its simplicity and variety, to the
works of God, 422; universe must
be studied as a system, in order to
benefit man, 423; this perception
of unity gives joy to the spirit, frees
it from superstition, and gives it a
knowledge and control of the fu-
ture, 424. The gospel is based on
that very feature in the character
of God-his determined adherence
to law-which lies at the founda-
tion of natural science, 425; pe-
riod fast coming when a close unity
between religion and science will
be discovered, 427; gospel severely
tested at the beginning in respect
to Judaism, 428; now tested in re-
gard to science, 429; christianity,
being now disconnected from the
State, must be shown to be the salt
and leaven of society, 431; the
gospel is to moral philosophy what
algebra is to arithmetic, 432; the
gospel must be seen in the extent
and connections of truth, 433; this
mode of studying the gospel has an
intimate connection with pulpit el-
oquence, 434.

Paul, the apostle, his life by Hemsen,
142; remarks of Lücke on Hem-
sen, 142; Hemsen seeks to unite
an historical account of Paul with
a critical introduction to his writ-
ings, 143; birth and education of
Hemsen, 144; account of his la-
bors, 145; death and character,

145; birth-place of Paul, 146;
Tarsus not a free Roman city in
the highest sense of that term, 146;
how Paul's parents obtained a Ro-
man citizenship not known, 147;
importance of Tarsus, 147; why
the name of the apostle was chan-
ged from Saul to Paul conjectured,
148; Paul could not have acquired
a very extensive education in
Greek, 149; he studies with Ga-
maliel at Jerusalem and at the
same time learns a trade, 150;
independence of his character and
his hatred to the Christians, 151;
his bitter persecutions, 152; objects
of his journey to Damascus, 153;
conversion proved to be miracu-
lously effected, 154; Rationalistic
modes of accounting for his con-
version unsatisfactory, 155; fact
itself of the conversion of such a
man a strong proof of its miracu-
lous nature, 156; difficulties in
fixing on the year of his conver-
sion, 157; probably occured about
A. D. 36, 158; mode of proof, 158;
principal difficulty is to determine
when Aretas had possession of Da-
mascus, 159; variety of opin-
ions, 162; account of Anger, who
fixes on A.D. 38, 162; zeal of Paul
in preaching, 163; hatred of the
Jews, 163; agency of Ananias, 164;
manner of Paul's first preaching
and wrath of the Jews, 165; Paul
soon leaves Damascus for Arabia
Petraea, 166; reasons for this jour-
ney, 167; probably stays in Arabia
nearly two years, 168; returns to
Damascus, escapes from that city
and visits Jerusalem, 169;

the injured party, and to secure
the reformation of the criminal 68.
The first design the primary one
proved from the object of govern-
ment itself 69, from the intrinsic
nature of penalties 70, and from
the fact that it is deemed necessa-
ry, that the penalties should be
made public as extensively as the
law itself 71; death rather than
perpetual imprisonment best calcu-
lated to promote the most impor-
tant design of punishments 74;
Case of those governments that
have temporarily abolished the
punishment of death 76; objec-
tions against capital punishment
answered 77; reasons for prefer-
ring it 79; human governments
have the right by the light of rea-
son to inflict capital punishment
82; also by the Old Testament 84;
this right not revoked by the New
Testament 86.

his famous propositions against
Tetzel to the door of the Castle

cause it discloses the adaptedness
of his themes to the moral nature
of his hearers, 173; the nature of
theological study gives confidence
to the preacher, 174; by extensive
theological investigation, a preach-
er acquires the respect and cons-
dence of his people, 175; influence
of Dr. Griffin's preaching in Bos-
ton, 177; an ill-taught preacher
does not discern the relations of
truth, 178; theological study se-
cures to a preacher's ministrations
appropriateness and variety, 179;
the opposite illustrated by an anal-
ysis of three sermons, 180; theo-
logical study discloses the precise
truths which are fitted to renovate
the heart, 182; illustration from
the different modes of preaching
the doctrine of repentance, 183;
another illustration furnished from
prayer, 184; sacred eloquence de-
pends essentially on theological
study, because this study discloses
the essential truths which glorify
God, 187; a preacher must not be
satisfied with the investigation
merely of those parts of his subject
which he wishes to discuss in his
sermons, 190.

Todd, Rev. John, Sabbath school Teach-
er, 235.

Truth, Theological, Mode of exhibiting
it, 436; theology modal and essen-
tial, 436; the mind, in order to be
profited, must attend, and to at-
tend, must be pleased, 437; the
nature of truth is such, that it can-
not be taught without scrupulous
attention to the manner of teach-
ing, 441; means by which we may
obtain the best mode of presenting
truth, 446; we must faithfully con-
sult the mental state of our hear-

ers, 446; the preacher must secure
the moral influence of it on his own
heart, 450; an imitation of the
best models, 454; teaching of the
Bible, 456; the Bible accommo-
dates itself to the particular state
of the individuals whom it ad-
dresses, 456; the minute and spe-
cific imitation of the inspired mod-
el will prevent us from being faith-
ful to that model, 461; it would be
strange if Revelation had pres
cribed the minute details of rhetor-
ical mode, when it has not prescri-
bed the minute details of moral
duty, 464; the good sense of
preachers frequently leads them
to sacrifice the details to the main
principles of rhetoric, 467; when
modern preachers have attempted
an undeviating conformity to the
details of scriptural rhetoric, they
have often done injury, 469.
