Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Baptized Child It is not the object of this book to promote a sectarian observance of rites and forms. The wall of separation already made by them, between different denominations of Christians, is, in one sense, so high that it is dreadful.' The forms that characterize the various sects of true Christians, and even the differences in their doctrinal belief, may remain to the end1 of time but when the full power of Christianity is known, the manifestation of it will appear in the triumph of Christian love amongst the followers of Christ: andviii preface. Sprinkling, and Immersion, and Infant Baptism, the Right of Ordina tion, and the Liturgy, or Election and Perseverance, will be no greater hindrance to Christians, in their affection for each other and in their union to convert the world, than the different costumes adopted and worn by the different companies in a Fire Department should prevent their co-operation to put out a fire. All these things will be subordinated to the love of Christ, and of one another, because Christians will have learnt the spiritual nature of Christianity and looking upon their own denomination and upon others, the words of Christ Will be felt in their sublime and beautiful truth Woman believe me, the hour cometh when ye shall neither in this moun tain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. But the hour cometh and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth for the Father seeketh such to worship him. Then the world will feel that greatest proof of the divine origin of Christianity, The union of Christians in spite of the diversity in their forms and creeds. In view of past alienation and strife, that union will appear the greatest instance of the presence and power of God on earth since the days of miracles and therefore, Christ, in prophetic prayer, looked to this consummation as the triumph of his cause That they all may be one that the world may believe that Thou hast sent me.
