Excerpt from Spiritual Law in the Natural World: An Attempt to Develop, According to Scripture-Truth, the Interpretation of Nature Lest I should be thought to misconceive Prof. Drummond here, - a thing very possible to any, . And of which I would desire to remember the possi bility, -i shall let him speak for himself, and as his book is in so many hands, it will be abundantly easy to verify the quotations. At the very outset indeed he tells us in his preface expressly, that when with him the subject-matter Religion had taken on the method of the-expression of Science, and I discov ered myself, he says, enunciating Spiritual Law in the exact terms of Biology and Physics, that this was not simply a scientific coloring given to Religion, the mere freshening of the theological air with natural facts and illustrations. It was an entire re-tastz'ug of truta. My spiritual world be fore was a chaos of facts. It was the one region still unpossessed by law. I saw then why men of science distrust. Theology; why those who learn to look upon law as authority grow cold to it - it-was the great Exception.
