Not illustrated. 1895 edition. Excerpt: ... THE PRESENCE AND PRESIDENCY OF THE SPIRIT The word "presence" implies personality, as we more correctly use it. And the fifth chapter of the Acts of the Holy Ghost contains an unmistakable unveiling of the fact that he is a Person, present and presiding in the church.

It is plain that a man cannot "lie" to an influence or effluence, or "tempt" and defraud anything less than a person. Moreover, it is distinctly affirmed that, in thus lying " unto the...
