Description
Summary:"All things are yours" should be the motto of religion. There is no field of human interest which it does not touch; there is no realm of human endeavor from which it cannot be approached. In the April number of the "Biblical World" we published an article by Professor J. M. Coulter on the "Contribution of Biology to Religion." The present article by Professor Sargent is in a very different field, but serves to illustrate the same great principle that life is one and that its interests both serve and are sanctified by faith in God. Protestantism has never approved of the large use of art in religion which marks the services of the Roman Catholic church, but Professor Sargent shows that it is an ally of religion in that it gives men the assurance of a world of spiritual realities which science, with its strictly intellectual standards, sometimes fails to recognize.
