W, Ii, Porter, M.A. Scripture tell& ue that there are diff• erent kinds of coneclence, '"A good ooneolence," "A pure conscience," "A weak conscience," "An evil cor.- science," "An ignorant conscience." Paul' i was not "a weak eonecienoe,'' but an ignorant, one; he says: "I veri. ly thought that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus, which I also did; and many of the saints did I shut up in prison; and when they were put to. death, I gave my voloe against them, And I pun• idled them oft in every eynagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme." "But I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief,' • Dn. F. W. Robertson says of the Corinthian Chnietiane in regard to their eating meat eaeviflced to idols; "Some had a mistaken, ill•formed, Ig- norant conscience, and 'their con• science being weak, was defiled'. Oonscience uninstructed, or uninform- ed, will tell us very little distinctly. and he might have added, nothing unerringly. Indeed, what evils and injustices, what cruel barbarities have not been inflicted coneciontioualyl Think of the atrocities of the nuke, a disgrace to humanity for centuries; and yet they have been coanmitted conscientiously, and even with the hope thereby of winning higher distinction ins heaven. Surely such lessons before us should make us cau- tious, at least, in settling duty merely by conscience. Is there any solid ground for con- scientious objections to defensive and righteous war, or to figbting in such? If all war and fighting are wrong; how ie it that so many of the most devoted and godly have been some of the greatest warriors. If fighting is always and only wrong, how is it that the holy angels in heaven ate said to fight? Or why should Jesus have taught his followers their duty as sol- diers, instead of telling them to leave the army and cease to fight ! Why should God allow himself to be Balled "a man of war," teaching hie servant's "hand to war and his fingers to •fight." When Abraham Lincoln was asked during American Civil War if he thought God•wae or would bo in it, hie answer was, that be was not concerned about that, what concerned him most was that the people should be with Him in it. Iudeed, one of the ntost wonderful pictures of Jesus in Revelation is, "I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and he that eat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness obeli he judge and make war." Moses, the man of God, appealed to men's coascienceb to induce them to fight, saying, "Shall your brethren go to war and ye sit here." " The book of Judges especially the 5th chap„ furnishes an excellent tonic for weak consciences concerning war.'' In this day of supreme issues, moral and material, well might the sublime patriotiem of Deborah inspire ours, "Fraise ye the Lord for the avenging a Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves. My heart is to- wards the governors of Israel who offered themselves wiilinglljy among the people. Zebulon and Naphtali jeopardized their lives unto the death in the high places of the field, In the divisions of • Reuben great were the impressions of the heart. (But) why abodest thou among the sheep -folds, tri hear the bleating of the flocks? Gilead abode beyond Jordan and why did Dan remain in ships? Oaree ye Meroz, saki the angel of the Lord curesY a bitterly inhabitants inha ' a pts there-' of, because they came not to the help of the Lord against the mighty." 'O, blest is hest° whom is given The instinct that can tell When God is on the field, When moat invisible. And blest is he who can divine Where real right doth lie; And dares to take the side that seems Wrong to man's blinded eye. FALL. TERM FROM AUGUST 277ii ELLIOTT G d,)itedd lie Yong& and Charles Sts.
