And the same if he be a Presbyterian, a Unitarian or a member of any other church ; let him be truly loyal to the , ethical and religious teachings of the church of which he is ; :, a member.' To be loyal to the truth as one usees it is not only 7 a necessary foundation for any religious life whatever, but of character and real manhood or womanhood. " " But in order to be loyal to his religious convictions one uuvs nut jicvu w ub uiwivitun, ui uie tueas ux uuicra. me more one feels the necessity; of this loyalty to his own con victions, the more willing, he. should be that his , brother ; should- be loyal to his. This loyalty does not require us to try to force oar convictions upon our brother nor to fight or try to destroy him if he doffs jnot accept them. This, so far ' from being an admirable '0, commendable manifestation of hurriAn, character, is only' an .expression, of inordinate sel fishness and egotism. These and not loyalty to his convic , tions, are always at! the- bottom of. the activities of the sec tarian and the bigot. ::aiM..v'l:;-;! ; - ' r ' Indeed, a ' careful examinatJ6n of the tenets of all Chris tian denominations will disclose the fact that in their ethical and "religious teachings they are all essentially much the i same. 7, It is as to theology, dogmatism, creeds, forms and ceremonies the trappings of religionthat they differ. It ' is the exaggeration of the importance of these non-essentials together witlihia selfish insistence upon their acceptance and observance by others that makes the sectarian. ;" L't"' ' AU, Christian denominations clajm to be founded upon the life and teachings of Jesus as recorded in the Gospels. If all , were really sOvfotthded they would all agree as to thetfunda- rnentals'of ethical and religious' truth and would have' the spirit of Christ to animate them and the Spirit pfthith to lead them. There would then indeed be "one Lord, one faith end one bap'tism7,'.,-r-i;': v--v;-- . " .- . , Too many Christian sects have come about in this way t some, theologiam has emphasized, often misinterpreted, the meaning of-certain passages of the Scripture. ;,Wtk these as a. basis, by l a' purely intellectual, process, he has reasoned to certain conclusions, f These ; formally ; set if orth in- dogma &fi'd'?cieltbeciiSQ'e' tfieTfouii4aiion& of his new Sect which he . forthwith-proceeded! to organize as the only true. Christian faith. No matter, how. entirely: out of harmony with the , spirit of the .Gospels hi3 articles of faith, he found those ; whom he could induce to accept them as authorized by. the riptures and as constituting the. only statement of Chris- tian truth.- 'Animated bv a narrow, selfish. sarfriftiiTmnt. he and hlsr followers proceeded, to" try t6 supplant all other faiths by destroying, them.

We Amer icans believe in religious liberty that religion is more virile arid takes a firmer hold on men where there is full religious freedqm. But some of us have yet to learn that this religious freedom is for our differing brother as well as for ourselves; that we can be sure of the right to freely worship God ac ceding tot the dictates of our consciences only-by. seeing to it that our brother has the same right (The poles are not farther apart than religious freedom and; fanatical sec tarianism, which in the last few months ha3 claimed nearly four hundred human lives as its harvest in one country of Europe, and has massacred thousands recently in Asia Minor. There is no more revolting manifestation of human selfish ness and depravity than fanatical sectarianism, and it is ful ly as revolting in Christian as in Mohammedan and very much less justified by the Christian's faith and professions. With the. broader knowledge and greater enlightenment which have recently come to the worldi many are ! seeing a new light." The conviction is taking possession, of many, hon est minds .that this sectarian spirit has done and is -still do ing great" injury " to the cause of Christ and is tending to keep the world m religious darkness and "sin V that unless Christianity is to consist only Of: a lot 'of comparatively small and weak warring factions there must be an end of these hair-splitting divisions and their resulting dissensions and jealousies. Instead of looking for and emphasizing their differences, which, have generally come about through" lack of spiritual development and inations should be. searching their points of agreement. Instead of enmities which separ ate the various Christian denominations there should be efforts to get together, even to coalesce, so that a solid and united army may face the common, enemy, sin. This-conviction has prompted the recent world-wide efforts at church union. Let us 'hope that thes efforts .may continue :until Christianity shall meansomething more to the. world than large numbers of confusing, sects. ;. : ..,;... ".,.,..' ' , . Surely the life and teachings Jesus are broad enough and pure and beautiful enough'to make a platform ipon which all Christians can stand.
