Conquering. 2. It is the engrafted Word. An incorruptible seed. 3. It is the Word to save from spiritual ignorance, prejudice, thraldom, selfishness, sensuality, guilt, &c. II. THE HUMAN SOUL. 1. Its amazing capability. 2. Its moral obligations. Receive the Word in a humble, reverent, docile spirit. (Homilist.)
