THE HIGHER LIFE

From Lcslles Weekly.
Nothing so gratifying and so
promising for the future has oc.
CURED in the realm Of church life
and work during the present year as
the movements set on foot for
reunion among the separated
branches of several denominations
and also for a larger degree OF
unity and co operation among the
churches generally, irrespective of
denominational lines. More and
more the feeling is growing among
earnest churchmen Of all sects and
creeds that the churches are vast
ing valuable means and energies
by keeping up so many divisions
among themselves; and that while
organic unity among all denomina.
tons i'll Christendom must be re.
garded as impracticable, even it
it were desirable, there is no good
reason, why, for example, the Bap.
lists should be split up among
themselves into thirteen distinct
and separate bodies, the MsthOdists
into seventeen, or the Presbyteri-
ans into twelve, and it is evident
enough that until something is
done to bring the scattered mem.
bers of these denominations FINN.
lies together it is useless to expect
that the greater and more serious
divisions between the churches
will be bridged over.
