SynopsisExcerpt from Anastasis: Or the Doctrine of the Resurrection of the Body, Rationally and Scripturally Considered The proposition which is virtually embodied in the head ing of the present section, ows by natural sequence from the general and universally admitted truth, that the human race itselfis progressive, not merely in physical continuity, but in mental development. That our collective humanity, like each individual that composes it, passes through a child hood, a youth, and a meridian manhood, can scarcely be a question with any one who casts his eye at the page of his tory or the universal analogies of nature. We should be far from doing violence to truth, should we slightly alter the poetic aphorism, and read Progress is heaven's first law. If so, the thesis may stand unassailable, that the knowledge of Revelation, like that of Nature, is destined to be continually on the advance. So far as the latter is con cerned it will not be denied by the reecting mind, that even at this period of the world man has arrived but at the threshold of that august temple of Truth into which he is called to enter, and to become a worshipper at its inmost shrines; He is now in the scene of his pupilage - in the lowest forms of that school in which he has been set to learn the lessons of the universe.

There are doubtless certain great fundamental and para mount facts in revelation which lie open on its very face, and beyond which we cannot possibly anticipate any higher or ulterior disclosures. Who, for instance, could think for a moment of educing from the pages of revelation any truth to be set by the side of the sublime central fact of the atoning work of Jesus Christ in the matter of man's salva tion? This constitutes the very core of all inspired truth im parted by God to man, and neither time nor eternity will develop any thing to supersede or equal it. So, again, as to the great system of moral duties - the code of ethical precepts designed to govern the intercourse of men in their relations with each other - we have no reason to suppose it ever will or can be improved upon, or that any discoveries will ever be made that shall supersede, vacate, or alter its imperative claims. In whatever other 'department of re vealed truth we may look for advances to be made, we anti cipate none here. It will never be any more nor any less clearly our duty than it now is to love God with all our - hearts, and our neighbor as ourselves, and to do to others as we would that they should do to us.
