I do not purpose to discuss faith in its dogmatic sense today.
If, then, knowledge be power, how much more power to we gain through the agency of faith, and what elevation must it give to human character.
We ourselves can die with comfort and even with joy if we know that death is but a passport to blessedness, that this intellect, freed from all material chains, shall rise and shine.
