are led to worship the creaturerather than the Creator,may be tracedin all the history of the past.Satan'sefforts to misrepresent the characterof God,to cause men to cherish a falseconception of the Creator,and thus toregard Him with fear and hate ratherthan with love;his endeavors to setaside the divine law,leading thepeople to think themselves free fromits requirements;and his persecutionof those who dare to resist his decep-tions,have been steadfastly pursuedin all ages.They may be traced in thehistory of patriarchs,prophets,andapostles,of martyrs and reformers.  \nN harmony with the Word of God,His Spirit was to continue its workthroughout the period of the gos-pel dispensation.During the ageswhile the Scriptures of both the Oldand the New Testament were beinggiven,the Holy Spirit did not cease tocommunicate light to individualminds,apart from the revelations tobe embodied in the Sacred Canon.TheBible itself relates how,through theHoly Spirit,men received warning,reproof,counsel,and instruction,inmatters in no way relating to the giv-ing of the Scriptures.And mention ismade of prophets in different ages,ofwhose utterances nothing is recorded.In like
