church Of their own name. That church
boldly makes the positive declaration
that the infinite God of love, in his own
good time and way, shall finally restore
the whole family of mankind to holiness
and happiness"
Possessed by this lofty and positive
idea, it's adherents are constrained to
labor to victory AS a church we are
what we are because of the power of
positive Universalism. But some may
say you are but a small denominations;
does this speak we'll for the power of
Universalism? We answer our church
is not the measure of our idea. The
force of our ideas has penetrated within
the doors of every church in Christian
dom, and the effects of Universalism is
only circumscribed by its boundaries Of
so-called negative Universalists. Be-
sides this the incubus of negation that
has always been upon us, has called out
the cry of deliverance from our friends,
and the power needed to bear the bur-
den can hardly be estimated. Those out
side of this church who are las much
Universalists as anything" have mis-
represented us and prevented proselyt-
ing, and the same within have left not
the rest and peace necessary to the adj
vancement of the cause. To have done
what we have under existing conditions
is proof that the love of God constrain-
eth US.

UNIVERSALIST CHURCH.
Rev. Mr.. Rice on Power Of Positive
Universalism."

At the Universalist church yesterday
Rev. Mr.. Rice spoke on the subject
Power of Positive Universalism," from
the text: 1.-The love of Christ constrain-
eth u.s." II Corv:14.
Those Christians who are commonly
called Universalists may be divided into
two classes, said the speaker, the posi-
tive and the negative. The latter COM
prise that vast number of people found
today interspersed through all denomi-
nations who are fast becoming averse
to orthodoxy and whose prime preroga-
tive seems to be the denial of the truth
of it's tenets of belief They have come
to disbelieve in the doctrine of election,
of vicarious atonement and. of total de-
pravity, which are the superstructure of
the orthodox churches, and even have
gone so far as to say that the doctrine of
endless punishment is without basis in
fact. Aye, verify. many. such as T. T,
Munger, PORT. Drummond and Lyman
Abbott, are now expressing larger hope
in the words I'VE hope that all man
kind will be saved Yet their religious
belief consists wholly of negations, while
the world says of them and they some
times say of themselves, we are as much
Universalists as anything.
AS a matter of fact there are no Uni
versalists save those of the positive kind,
who are greatly In the minority and are
almost invariably found within the
