Book Description
Excerpt from State Churches and the Kingdom of Christ: An Essay on the Establishment of Ministers, Forms and Services of Religion by Secular Power; And on Its Inconsistency With the Free, Humbling, Spiritual Nature of the Christian Dispensation Having long been painfully impressed with the evils of compulsory ecclesiastical systems, existing in Britain and in other nations, I have thought it to be a duty to my own country in particular, to point out those evils, and faithfully to plead for such a thorough change in this respect, as is required by the great principles of the New Testament, and adapted to promote the highest interests of man. Far from being disposed to write in a strain of bitterness, I have endeavoured to handle the subject dispassionately and impartially, under the conviction that every Christian community is entitled to be treated with deference and respect. The present complaint is not against Protestant Episcopacy, or any other religious profession, as such; but applies to all systems for establishing and upholding any religious tenets by the power of the state. It is the principle of this union and enforcement, - the interference of the civil authority in religious matters, and the intrusion of ecclesiastical authority into secular matters, with whatever doctrines connected, that will be mainly considered in the following pages. I rejoice in believing that many of the ministers and private individuals of the Established Church of England, to which principally reference is made, are members of the true universal church of Christ, and children of God by adoption.

Excerpt from The Church, the State, and the University: An Essay in Higher Ecclesiastical Policy Wisconsin, or California, there is every reason to believe that the plan would have eminently succeeded. Yet, in Spite of the fact that it is today abandoned in its more ambitious char acter as a diocesan institution, existing only as a parochial though a useful hall, it had its influence in a much larger way than might have been expected. The president of the University declared, in the presence of a distinguished gath ering including men like President Harper, that it had made the University famous where it had never been heard of before. It was mentioned before at least one national edu cational convention by Professor Richard T. Ely. As an ex ample that should be followed by all denominations, and it drew the attention of such eminent men as the Honorable Andrew D. White, then embassador to Germany, who had proposed similar halls at Ann Arbor forty years earlier. Today the plan is receiving an attention few would have expected when the Episcopal Hall at Morgantown, West Virginia, began its modest work. There are efforts on foot to place at Chicago a series of resident halls, each with its master and its tutors. The sensation of the recent com mencement season was the oration of Charles Francis Adams at Columbia University bewailing the weakness of the great University as such, and arguing the possibility of remedying its mistakes by the establishment of small colleges within the larger fold. Coming as it did from a distinguished member of the Harvard Corporation, the oration did much to further the movement. It is also understood that President Woodrow Wilson, troubled by elective looseness, is seeking funds to endow a college and tutor system at Princeton after the model of Cambridge and Oxford. Over in Germany. Where one is wont to think universities are well-nigh perfect, there is considerable restlessness due to shirking of duties and cutting of lectures by the students; and Professor Paulsen, who seems to dread any measure of discipline that would endanger the university's character as a place of scientific investigation, goes so far as to sug gest a return to the Middle Ages' colleges and burses (by which he means what we are calling halls) as a possible way to correct the defects of the free elective system.

Excerpt from The United Church of the United States In the following year the House of Bishops of the Protest ant Episcopal Church at Chicago issued the proposals, after ward amended by the Lambeth Conference of 1888, and now known as the Quadrilateral or Four Articles of Church Unity. The author has advocated these articles in a paper read before various circles of representative divines in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, and before several public assemblies, after introductory addresses by President Seth Low, of Columbia College; by President Daniel Gilman, of the Johns Hopkins University, and by the Hon. Justice William Strong, of the United States Supreme Court. It is here reproduced, with a review of some of the valuable opin ions to which it gave expression. The other essays refer to different practical aspects of the question as still under discussion; and two essays have been added, which are designed to illustrate the unifying value of the English liturgy among the Christian denominations, and the momentous importance of church unity as a Sociological' Question.
