That they should seek the Lord,
if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from
every one of us. (Acts 17:27)
Philosophers are agreed that
even the most primitive races of mankind reach out beyond the world of matter
to a superior Being. It is as natural for man to feel after God as it is for
the ivy to feel after support. Hunger and thirst drive him to seek for food,
and there is a hunger of the soul that needs satisfying, too.
Man does not need to be
commanded to worship, as there is not a race so high or so low in the scale of
civilization but has some kind of a god. What man needs is to be directed
aright in his worship.
