CHRISTIAN PEACE AND UNITY.

| EJiFdct Prom The ReU. ". CdrDenter's .S,J.
mons on Christian Peace and Unify.
| We should consider that there is some
thing good in all the different drnorhina
tons OF christians as well az something de-
feefife. Aud as long rs men continue ig,
norant and imperfect creatures, no system
OF Opinions and no body of men will be fire.,
from errors and defects.
As all determinations of christians bav,
both their eNceileucies and defects. so eve.
ry system of opinions has its difficulties II.
well as its advantages.
IL there be mau who has found ont a
system free from dilliculIits, let that man
cast the first stone al al those who differ
from him ye., il he were so inclined. il
would shew that his creed had not produced
ITS proper influence on his heart.
The candid and thoughtful Calvinist
must allow that his system in appearance
u somewhat harsh, aud initiates against
The justice and goodness OF God. The can
dld Tnnltarlan must allow that there
are many passages Of scripture which
speak OF the Son of Sod as a derived Re
lnS aud dependent on his Father. The
candid Socnian must concrdc, that il is not
very easy To reconcile some declarations of
the gospel with The notion of the simple
humanity OF Christ and |, as an Arian, am
ready to acknowledge that my system is
not free from difficulties.
We all profess To take, and believe that
We do take, our respective systems from
Tie sacred scriptures, and We are all pleased
with our own, though for different reasons.
He soehlan Is pleased with bis ON account
ol rs simplicity the Arian with his on ac-
count of lis dignity and grandeur; the Til
hllaflan with his on account vi its obscure
silblmlty, and the Calvinst with his for
lis unialhomable tlepth.-This is all very
we'll And if the system that we ndupt
does blf lead MS TO an humble, dcvout and
benevolent tempcrrof mind, this is better
sill, and we need not then fear bciur
condemned hereafter forany errors of iudg-
nent.
Now since the various denominations Of
christians have their several excelIencics
aud defects, let us view the former with
pleasure and the latter with candor. Since
the different religious systems have their
difficulties rs well as their advantages, let
us not BIZ bigoted to our own system or
treat with severity or ridicule those Of o.
Tiers. But mindful that we differ from
them as much as they differ from us, let us
exercise that candor and charity towards
them, which we think il reasonable they
should indulge towards as.
Follow, then, my brethren, after the
things which make for peace, and things
where"lth one may ediiy one another
