NEW CONVERSION THEORY.

Theological Seminary, in sermon at
New York last Sunday. attacked the. con-
version eheory held by most OF Che Prot

turning to the person OF Christ, but in the
conversion to Chrsts service. the cause
which he introduced and for which he
died. He asserted that the acceptance OF
this view would break down most of the
dt AFOREMENTIONED barriers and separations,

not the church, and federation would be
