SEE NEW RELIGIOUS ERA
Prominent Presbyterian Ministers
Take AdUanced Ground at Meeting.

An inclination abandon the ancient dogma of
Presbyterian theology and keep pace in religious
thought with modern progress the prevailing
tone OF the ninth general council of the Alliance
Of Reformed Churches holding the Presbyterian
system during it's first session yesterday in the
Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church. The Rev. Dr.
]. Oswell Dykes of Cambridge England. president
of the alliance said in his address night that
the twentieth century begins a religious
We are standing the threshold of new era
OF religious teaching" he said God is beck
oning his people onward. and religion cannot stand
still while science is advancing Christ rebuked
his people for being blind to the spirit Of the
times.
Il speak of this age of change. We all
dimiy feel the most conservative the
old order giving place to the new. The altered
social conditions cali for application Of the
old work Of saving souls by the Gospel. Our ad-
vance must be moral we'll material. There
is great drawing together Of to man in a
quckened sense OF human brotherhood. The
threads OF the past being gathered together for
great final issue What can that be?
This is a missionary age and the age of al
istic doctrines We admit that the doctrinal t"rt-
resses over which the confessional flag was once
raised silently being evacuated Our
creeds are changing. in order that may CO.
operate with each other instead of spending our

may easily overstep the limits. It requires eau

At the afternoon session the Rev DR. James D
Mofatt president of Washington and Jefferson
College said that II the Church should 60 back 10
Apostolic times for ats theology some have eug-
gested. it would be better fitted for the needs OF
the hrst than the twentieth century. He sail that
science had increased the modern knowledge OF
God and of the creation, and advised that creed
should neither be considered all essential nor be
relegated to the background with character as the
only aim, but that the beliefs that inspire men
to strive high type OF human character. and
encourage and assist them reacn it. be urged as
the divneiy appointed means whereby that end is
20 be attained He continued:
Let our scholars seek 10 determine the author
ship Of the books of the Bible and the circun-
stances Of their composition, even # their coaclu
sions shall be such reverse all traditional
beliefs: meanwhile may continue 20 use their
contents for religious and ethical purposes as be
fore Systematic theology may be revolutioaized
II some Of these critical contentious prevail, for
the Bible can then be employed by theologians only
SIS other literature is appealed TO. But the Scrip
ture can still be effectively for the doctrine
that bears on life
