The teaching of the Church being, that it is the culti vation of the angelic germ in the character of man, exclusively, that absorbs the efforts of the Lord Jesus Christ, it is not unreasonable to conclude that in the safety in which The Chicago Society of the New Jerusalem has been at different times carried over the sea of trouble that threatened to engulf it, may be seen His recognition of the remains of the angelic germ or spiritual character that is referred to.
