the cause of Protestantism is lost in America. Take up your first, your
all-important duty, and give your children a Christian education, and
instead of a decline in church membership as now reported, there will be
an increase; instead of formalism, there will be life. This will be the
means of bringing the heathen to your door, and to a knowledge of the
gospel.
“Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold; all these gather themselves
together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt
surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on
thee, as a bride doeth. For thy waste and thy desolate places and the
land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the
inhabitants.... _The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast
lost the other_, shall say again in thine ears, the place is too strait
for me; give place to me that I may dwell. Then shalt thou say in thine
heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am
desolate?... Who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these,
where had they been? Thus saith the Lord God, Behold! I will lift up Mine
hand to the Gentiles, and set up My standard to the people; and they
shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried
upon their shoulders. And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their
queens thy nursing mothers; they shall bow down to thee with their faces
toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet.... For I will contend
with him that contendeth with thee, AND I WILL SAVE THY CHILDREN.”[190]
How will He save the children?—“ALL THY CHILDREN SHALL BE TAUGHT OF THE
LORD.” When will the Gentiles come bringing their children to supply the
places of those now lost?—When Protestants can show to the Gentiles that
they have a system of education which is free from the errors now so
prevalent; when they can teach the Gentiles the TRUTH.
“Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing,
and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the
children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith
the Lord. Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth
the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and
strengthen thy stakes; for thou shalt break forth on the right hand and
on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles.”[191]
When shall these things be? The same chapter of Isaiah answers. When
“all thy children shall be taught of the Lord.” When Protestants educate
according to the principles of true Protestantism, then will the words of
the same prophet, recorded in the sixtieth chapter, be fulfilled. “Arise,
be enlightened, for thy light cometh.... The Gentiles shall come to thy
light and kings to the brightness of thy rising.... Thy sons shall come
from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.”[192]
Christ came, fulfilling in every particular the prophecies quoted. “As
thou hast sent Me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the
world,” are the words of Christ to His church. As Christ was a teacher,
so that church which does the work which the Christian church _must_ do,
will have a system of education, and its members will be educators indeed.
Of Christ as a teacher it is written, “He raised Himself above all
others whom millions to-day regard as their grandest teachers. Buddha,
Confucius, Mohammed, to say nothing of Greek and Roman sages, are not
worthy to be compared with Christ.” Says Paroz: “Jesus Christ, in
founding a new religion, has laid the foundation of a new education in
the bosom of humanity.”
“In lowliness and humility,” writes Dr. Schaff, “in the form of a servant
as to the flesh, yet effulgent with divine glory, the Saviour came forth
from a despised corner of the earth; destroyed the power of evil in our
nature; realized in His spotless life, and in His sufferings, the highest
idea of virtue and piety, lifted the world with His pierced hands out
of its distress; reconciled men to God, and gave a new direction to the
whole current of history.”
It is the education which He taught, which was His very life even in the
courts of heaven, which Protestants are now entreated to accept. “To-day
if ye will hear His voice, harden not your hearts.”
Where are the Protestants who are true to the name? Where are the schools
which will teach the things of God? Where are the teachers who forsake
secular methods, as did the Reformers, to become teachers for Christ?
Earth with its inhabitants is to the heart of God the most precious
part of the creation. As a recreant child draws harder on the parent’s
sympathy, so the world, because of the sinfulness of sin, has brought
heaven and earth in touch. The universe sees streaming from the throne
rays of light and love, pointing to the one spot in all creation where
sin abounds. They tell the story of the cross. The perfect harmony which
forms the “music of the spheres,” which was marred when man fell, will
again pervade all space when the plan of salvation is complete, and our
earth again joins in the great chorus of the sons of God.
[Sidenote: Truth revealed in the last days]
For six thousand years creation has groaned, waiting for our redemption.
The completion of the plan draws nigh, and for the final struggle
everything is now assuming an intensity never before seen. Principles
of truth, for centuries hidden, or known only in part, will again shine
forth in their original splendor. The wisdom of the ages will be manifest
in the closing era of the world’s history. True, this wisdom will often
appear but “foolishness” in the eyes of those who oppose truth; but
spiritual things are spiritually discerned, and the Spirit of the Holy
One will once more brood over the whole earth, taking up its abode in
those hearts which beat in unison with the strains of heaven. Christian
education binds earth to heaven. The wise in heart will return to the
God-given system of education, choosing “the fountains of living waters”
instead of hewing “them out cisterns, broken cisterns that can hold no
water.”[193]
