DR.. Gordon commended that Calvin
ism is wrong in making the will of
God against the majority of man
kind, and proceeded to declare against
the old theology which he called a
terrible partialism."
Then he went on to say plainly
that ''the theology of today must
found itself upon the will of God
and upon the will of God at its high
est" eff the mission of Christ is not
to be reduced to delusion, if Chris
tianity is not to be contracted into
the religion of sect, the saving pur-
pose of God in Christ must be made
to cover the race" 1t is impossible
to overestimate the force of the next
sentence. 1t was courageous and
thrilling proclamation of mighty
truth, right in the ears of those who
have been ignoring their own logic
and Sinking the consequences of
their own sentiments. Let us give it
in full, as one of the most important
utterances of our time.
1t is true that this principle is rev.
dictionary. This affirmation that
God has Christian purpose toward
our entire humanity involves an ex-
tension of the field of redemption so
enormous as to make obsolete, at a
single stroke, the whole theological
map of the traditional view. And
what seems worse, while all clear
seeing men are aware that this does
not necessarily imply universal saliva
ton, it is true that it looks that way.
If God shall succeed, universal sal
walton will be the final result And
this sounds so perilous to good
morals and seems to cut the nerve of
all strenuous endeavor! o my
brothers, whe n will Christian think
ers fear atheism more than Univer-
salism, when will they see that the
deepest immortality lies in distrust
of the righteous will of God; when
will they awake to the fact that only
those who believe in a God for
humanity and eternally for humanity
can resist unto blood.
Any scheme that puts God with an
inclusive and everlasting purpose of
redemption behind mankind, looks
like Universalism; but let us remem-
Der that any other scheme is, in our
time, royal road to atheism"
Then spake the soul of Hosea Bal
lou and John Murray! Then was
the old proclamation Of the faith once
for all delivered unto the saintsl
And DIR. Abbott at its close, said that
he could only take time to say
amen No wonder that he did not
care to take time! But how could
he say "dmen" Req. j. G. Adams, an
Christian Leader.

NEW BOOKS.

IN MEMORIAM. BY Alfred Tennyson.
With preface by Henry Van Dyke.
Illustrated by Harry Fem. New
York: Fords, Howard, & Hubert
[Svo, xxxiv.-229 PIP. Silk, gilt top,
uncut edges; boxed; $3.50
1t is not often that so undispu ed a
masterpiece as Tennyson's "In Memoir
lam lis left 60 long without the attention
of special edition for purposes of pre-.
sentation. Whether for IFS exquisite
poetry, it's profound philosophy, it's rev.
erent religion, or its uplifting strength
in bereavement, it has always been
priced among the foremost of elegiac--
or, indeed, any other-poems. Yet, save
in the admirable low-priced students
edition." with DR.. Rolfe's annotations,
and small pocket volume of Macmil-
Ian's this won derful poem cannot be OBJ
tanned in volume by itself.
That it should have been selected,
then, for artistic illustration and beauti-
full printing is no wonder; but the pub
fishers have been peculiarly fortunate
in securing for it the services Of Harry
Fem. The wide range and delicate
quality of his artistic capabilities are
we'll known. but his special fitness for
the present task lies in the fact that
some years ago he spent many months
in the immediate vicinity of Tennyson's
old Sussex home. and filed his portfolios
,r.k Nf hok ohor
gion of rural England. Thus the multi
tudinous illusions Of the poet TO nature
in illustration of his thought find sympa-
thetic and accurate representation amid
the drawings with which Mr.. Fenn has
enriched these pages. His art journeys
in other lands, too, enable him to give
illuminating touches to the poets for
eign illustrations, and sunny France,
Germany. Switzerland. Italy. Egypt,
Arabia, the Holy Land, widen the scope
and lend added graces to the interpreta'
tiop.
No one will get the full good of this
edition who looks it through merely
with an eye to the beauty OF the pic
lures, without study of the list of illus
trations, which reveals the artists
thorough comprehension of the great
poem, and the art with which he has
thrown light upon many of its finest
and most spiritual passages.
A further aid to the understanding Of
this victorian classic" is descriptive
and analytic introduction by DIR.
Henry Van Dyke, whose personal &C.
quaintance with the poet and diligent
consideration of his works have-de-
spite his fame as preacher and success
in various literary fields especially
identified him with the study of Tenny-
son.
In all the mechanical features of book
making this volume is a delight to the
eye. The ivory surface of the paper
smooth, but not unpleasantly glossy; the
clear. legible text; the effective engrav.
ing Of the drawings, in all their variety
OF pen. pencil, brush. charcoal. ETC.; the
rich yet delicate printing; the silk bind
ing, with its simple but striking decora-
ton in gold; the guilt top and uncut
edges.-combine to make an example OF
refined taste skillfully directed Both
in spirit and in form. it is rare and ex-
quisite production.

my right hand forget her cunning! if
I prefer thee not above my chief JOY,
may my tongue cleave to the roof of
my mouth"
Brethren, let us thank God that
we are able to stand on the only
immovable foundation, Jesus Christ,
and find it broad enough for the
exercise of all our faculties, and that,
while we are Universalists, we can
accept the truths emphasized by
those who have stood in other COM
munions. With even the Romanist
we recognize the subordination of all
things to Christ; with the Episco-
palian the duty of worshiping per-
sonally, and not by proxy, through
useful forms; with Calvin the value
of the granite truth of Gods sover-
eighty, as the primary foundation of
human confidence; with Arminius
and his followers, the sacred freedom
of the human will, never to be vio-
lated even by deity; with the Quakers
tie vital fact of the presence of God
in the innermost recess of every will
ling, open heart, the Inner Light
"that lighteth every man that cometh
into the world;" with Wesley, the
quickening power of a living faith
and fervent piety; with Murray,
who, from the chaotic debris of human
error exhumed it the supreme fact of
Gods all conquering love;with Chan
ming the innate purity of human
nature and it's likeness to the God
who made it; with Arius the one
ness of God and the subordination
of all other beings to the Father;
with Swedenborg that the material Is
but the visible garment of the spirit
ual; with Fenelon open communion
with God,-in fact, with those in all
churches who have stood for some of
the truths that are vital and endur-
ing.
The Universalist Church is strenu-
GUS for its distinguishing tenets, and
yet is so eclectic, so inclusive, so
truly ''broad" and genuinely ''liberal'
as to appropriate something from the
great and good who have never failed
to utter some truth. Let us from
our broad outlook accept truth from
all sources, and make it indeed "the
pearl of great price" by incorporat-
ing it in our hearts and lives. Let
us be truly liberal by "devising liber-
al things" and thus devising we shall
sstand."

THE TRUTH AT LAST IN PLYMOUTH
PULPIT.

Thanks be to Boston, we have at
last heard a clear utterance of an
unfinching thinker, in Plymouth
pulpit. DR.. Gordon has had the
courage and the candor to follow the
thought of Beecher and Abbott to its
logical and inevitable conclusion, and
has proclaimed Universalism in the
plainest terms in that historic place.
Plymouth Church has time and again
heard the premises of the larger faith
stated with eloquence, with fervor,
and with convincing power. But it
never heard the conclusion drawn,
as DR.. Gordon did the work last week,
at the semi centennial services there.
His theme was The Theology for
Today" and if anybody failed to
discover the kind he stands for, he
must have been in that neutral state
which the Catholic Church calls, in
extenuation of otherwise fatal error,
''invincible ignorance"
His opening sentence was signifi-
cant: "The strange thing that con-
fronts one almost everywhere today
is the absence of theology, in the SUI
preme sense of that word" Calvin
ism," he said, "is forever gone" and
there is nothing as yet to take its
place. "The house of faith remains
to be built" The attempts at theo-
logical thinking are usually some
decrepit modification of the Calvin
istic kind" the old theology uncou-
sciously dressing itself up in the gar
ments of the new, with unrefecting
simplicity covering the parts that
would surely give it away, and ad-
vancing guilelessly in borrowed en-
thusiasms and simulated loves, to OBJ
tain dominion over the blind" The
Inconsistencies of modern orthodoxy,
its adoption of the new thought and
it's clinging to the old forms was
never more startlingly confessed. Dr.
Gordon went on to declare that "The
being of God is the supreme interest
in all thought, but said that God
might be wholly above the world, OF
brought so close to the world as to
be completely one with its process
Willingness to be damned for the
glory of God may be the sign of a
humble spirit; but it is in reality the
supreme insult to God. For it as
sumes that the glory of God and the
veal of man are incompatible inter
ests." That was a sharp arraign'
ment; but more was to follow. Fol

NOT COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE. BUT
FAITH. OUR GREAT NEED.

The craving for absolute gertrude
and complete rest with regard to all
the great questions of religion, is no
sign of strong and healthy mind.
Many very excellent people feel if,
but in nine cases out ten, it has it's
genesis in brain that is too feeble
to bear suspense, or 10 endure the
burden of open questions. What
the soul needs, is the knowledge of
few great and comprehensive funda-
mental truths which suffice for its
peace, and with these devoutly and
thankfully accepted, it should be
content that its knowledge on ques-
tions of inferior interest or import
ance shall be in some respects imper-
feet. Believing in the Messiahship
of Jesus, for instance, let us not be
disconnected because we cannot fix
the exact boundaries of his nature, or
understand the precise mode in which
the Eternal Light shone upon him.
We cannot tell of our own souls
where the human ends and the Di-
vine begins. 1t is but shallow phil
osophy which sees no advantage in
the unmeasured and unattained.
The total absence of mental doubts
and difficulties would mean the loss
of much religious teaching. Cert.
tude in all things would tend to
weaken in US the spirit of prayer, ad-
Grafton, and reverence. God will
have us to trust him in the darkness
as we'll as in the light. If we have
absolute trust, we can we'll afford to
wait for absolute assurance.
1t is by exaggerating the value of
gertrude and of authority in matters
of religion, that priests contrive to ex-
ercise so much spiritual tyranny in
the world. To be reminded of the
uses of uncertainty, is therefore never
illtimed. The incompleteness of our
knowledge is perpetual incentive to
research, and the discovery of truth
for ourselves is one of the most rapt-
urous delights of which our souls are
capable. II am suffocated and lost, .
said Margaret Fuller, when l have
not the bright feeling of progression. i"
1t matters little that the progress is
slow, if only there be in it the princi-
pie of eternal continuance. There is
no reason to suppose that man, what
ever state of being awaits him in the
future, will ever be without unsolved
problems. And what if it be sol says
Horace Bushnell in his own wise
way:-"It will not hunt you nor hurt
the truth if you should have some
few questions left to be carried on
with you when you go hence, for in
that more luminous state most
likely they will soon be cleared; only
thousand others will be springing
up even there; and you will go on
dissolving still your new sets of ques-
tons, and growing mightier and more
deep seeing for eternal ages" If
complete and infallible knowledge be
no necessary condition of the beati-
tude of the angels, it need be no nec-
essary condition Of the happiness of
man upon earth.
Not complete knowledge, but faith
is the chief factor of human develop
ment and human blessedness. With
