The Crucial Test
Luke 9:23
And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.


Lord Bacon, in his great work, speaks of the supreme value of testing our hypotheses in natural science by what he calls the experi-mentum crucis — the experiment of the cross, or, as we should say, a crucial test. There is a crucial test in the kingdom of Christ.
