Instructive Guide

The really important details are given, and one often wonders how things so complicated have been so nicely unwoven for the interested reader—that shows the writer of Tue Trustworramvess or Rexictovs Ex-prance Swarthmore Lecture, 1939.

D. Elton Trueblood, Ph.D. Allen Unwin, London. 1/6.

This little book, which is the Swarthmore Lecture, 1939, contains in: four chapters a very comprehensive treatment of religious experience and puts forwafa statements in proof that such religious experience has been felt throughout the ages by people of all times. It should prove of real value to those who are seeking after truth in spiritual things, and to those who sometimes feel a doubt as to whether the varying emotions that beset them are really of a spiritual value.

In Chapter I the author points out the difference between true and false religions, the great danger of developing new faiths, and stresses the fact of there being only one True God. He goes on to relate man's universal experience of God in all times and relates the reality of religious experience, which can be expressed in a variety of ways.
