IIOKNADAV "Hut linn- is Uiiim i,.,-ii I'm mi the dead, and become thi-mt!itiili:t,if(n thai slept "I i ,.r I The controversy bct ecu Chris tianity and inlidehty begins with the resurrection of Christ from the dead. That f ie w as bom imo this world according to the records of the evangelist and that He lived .1 low ly life for thirty-three years there is no controversy between Chris tianity and infidelity, all alike agree that these records are true. Nor is there any controversy between the friends and foes of Christianity as to the character of the Man Christ Jesus, all agree that lie was a good man. Neither is there any controversy as to whether He was a great prophet, the greatest of H;s or any other day. Very many among those who most stoutly deny that He was the promised Messiah cheerfully admit that He was a good man and a great prophet Moreover, there is no contro versy as to His arrest, trial, con demnation, crucifixion and burial. Upon all these points Christianity 1 and infidelity are perfectly agreed. 1 Nor yet is there any controversy as to whether or n t the sepulcber in which His dead body w as placed was found empty early in the morning of the third day after He was crucified. But at this point the claims of Christianity and of infidelity pan company. Christianity affirms that He, bv His ow n almighty power, arose from the dead: while infidel ity affirms with equal emphasis UEORUE C. (JRKEN. In a card published today George C.

Let it be hrne 1:1 mmJ that tne only el.nm put forth by un bel.ever ss that "His disciples c line by mght and stole 11. in away." while the Roman guard were asleep. If'itiis claim of infidelity be true, great stone from the mouth sepulcher, and gotten away with ' the body wsthout awaki::? .1 single one of the guard of sixty soldiers? 3. llut supposing .1!' these things to be true, ca.i any sane mmd for one moment believe that tiiee .,ity loui;;n soldiers, guilty of an ottense the penalty of which was death, would have tied to the city and reported their own delinquen cies without first making the most determined effort to arrest the j guilty parties, and recover the dead body they were commanded to guard ?i t Once more, if "1 1'S disci ; pies came by night and stole Him ' away" while they w ere asleep, how on earth could the Roman guard testify that His disciples did it? If they really were asleep it may be that partes other than I lis diseiples stoie I Em away, or tint I le aeiiial'v arose Irom the dead according to the ci.iinis of Christi anity I lie iudit idual w ho can be'iee Mich aNtii'dincs must never ridicule the credulity l Christians. 7.

That as the guard kept watch about the sepulcher there was a "great e.irth 1 quake. f-r the angel of the 1 ord descended Irom heaven, and came and rolled back the stone !r.m the door and sat upon it ' and for fear of him the keepers did shake and became as dead men," and tli.it Jesus then by I lis almighty power burst the bands of death and the grave and same forth aiiVc.

Now as infidels deny the author ity of the Bible, let us consider ; their claim in the light of reason , and common sense. ! I. The disciples of Chnst were; all poor, unlearned, unarmed, and : obscure men. Now is it at all likely ' that such men as these would un- dertake to palm off such a fraud , on ihe world of mankind? No, money io uu.is ir.c;;;, r.o great; learning to attract a following; no i weapons w ith which to defend themselves; without official or so- cial standing among men. Such a ! claim against such men would seem i to the thoughtful mind unreasona- ble and absurd. 2. According to the Roman law j it was sure death for a soldier to go to sleep while on duiy. This j being true is it reasonable to sup-1 pose that all the guard would dare I to go to sleep at once. i J. But had this Roman guard been disposed to defy the law by going to sleep on duty, certainly it is contrary to sound reason to suppose that they would have chosen the very hour that He had said He would rise from the dead. 4. But had His disciples been sufficiently wicked and reckless to undertake to palm off this fraud upon the world.andhad they found all the guard asleep, is it reasona ble to suppose they could have broken the teal; rolled away the in saying t.'iey uw t.".e angels, the ' empty sepulcher, and the risen Lord. oV We next place upon the stand as witnesses the two disciples who )ourneed to Lmmauson that ever i memorable fust day of the week, Cleopas and perhaps Luke, whose : testimony is unequivocal that they saw and talked with Him. : 4. Next we call as witnesses the ten apostles v ho assembled in tfie upper room m Jerusalem on that never-to-be-forgotten first day of the week. They unite in saying that without ihe opening of a door or a window or anyth.ng to herald His coming He appeared unto them and talked with them. 5. Next we place upon the w it nesss stand doubting Thomas, whose very unbelief makes him one of the best witnesses to the truth of the resurrection. You re member when Jesus appeared to the apostles in the closed room in Jerusalem on lhe day He arose from the dead Thomas was not with them, and when they told him they had seen the Lord he flatly said he did not believe it and declared he would not believe Jesus had risen unless he touiu put his fingers in the nail-prints and thrust his hand in the wounded side, u en, iust one week later the apostles were assembled to gether again and Thomas with them when suddenly without the opening or a door or window or any thing to herald His coming Jesus appeared in their midst, and calling to Thomas said, "Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side; and be not faithless, but believing." 6. Finally we call as witnesses to the resurrection the five-hundred brethren to whom He ap peared and revealed Himself. (1 Cor. 15:6.) And here we rest the case with a feeling of profound confidence in the truth of the language of the text, "But now is Christ risen from the dead and become the firstfruits of them that slept."
