“M. L.,” near Dublin; and “A. R. W.” We place your communications together, because we look upon them both as being the fruit of a one-sided theology, which robs the divine character of its moral glory, and sweeps away man’s responsibility. This system attempts to shut up the blessed God within a narrow enclosure, fenced round about with such rigid decrees as prevent His dealing with man in a moral way, while at the same time, it makes man a mere machine, devoid of all moral responsibility. We strongly recommend you both to abandon the muddy streams of systematic divinity, and drink at the pure fountain of eternal truth. Get to the center of the wheel and then you will have a full, clear view of all the spokes. If you stand outside, you can only have a one-sided view. Christ is the center of the wheel of theology, and when we are near Him, we see each truth in its right place. Our tendency is to get occupied with some particular doctrine to such an extent as to lose sight, not only of many other doctrines equally important, but even of Christ Himself. May the Lord deliver us all from this pernicious tendency!
