2. In the next place, because he had sharply dealt with them by using the word schism, he again softens and soothes them, saying, That ye may be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. That is; since he had said, That ye may all speak the same thing; do not suppose, he adds, that I said concord should be only in words; I seek for that harmony which …
Such examples, therefore, brethren, it is right that we should follow; since it is written, "Cleave to the holy, for those that cleave to them shall themselves be made holy." And again, in another place, He saith, "With a harmless man thou shalt prove thyself harmless." With the elect thou shalt be elect, but with the perverse man thou shalt show thyself froward. Let us cleave,…
1. The Power of Harmony in Relation to Prayer. Again I say unto you that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them. Matthew 18:19 The word symphony is strictly applied to the harmonies of sounds in music. And there are indeed among musical sounds some accordant and others discordant. But the Evangelic Scripture is fam…

Is the object of faith the First Truth? Is the object of faith something complex or incomplex, i.e. is it a thing or a proposition? Can anything false come under faith? Can the object of faith be anything seen? Can it be anything known? Should the things to be believed be divided into a certain number of articles? These articles: are they of faith for all times? The number of a…
Does perfection bear any relation to charity? Can one be perfect in this life? Does the perfection of this life consist chiefly in observing the counsels or the commandments? Is whoever is perfect in the state of perfection? Are prelates and religious especially in the state of perfection? Are all prelates in the state of perfection? Which is the more perfect, the episcopal or …
Passion is a word with various meanings. It is used in regard to the body, and refers to diseases and wounds, and again, it is used in reference to the soul, and means desire and anger. But to speak broadly and generally, passion is an animal affection which is succeeded by pleasure and pain. For pain succeeds passion, but is not the same thing as passion. For passion is an aff…
That although the Church of Christ upon earth must necessarily exist in particular and distinct societies, locally separate one from another, yet there ought to be no schisms, no uncharitable divisions among them.
We will that the people henceforth take the name "Christian," discarding all party names and denominational labels, for Christ is not divided. There is no authority for sectarian names in the New Testament, and they serve only to perpetuate divisions among the people of God.
