’ In such revelations to Christendom he will doubtless maintain his character for generalship, as well as for piety

Christendom likewise has its 'oral law,’ its unwritten tradition, on which rests the fabric of modern ecclesiastical religion
40.
The idea of an immortality which was a gift of God under redemption alone, and not a natural attribute of humanity, had probably died out of the general Jewish mind in the last ages, just as the same idea has died out, and from the same causes, from the later popular mind of Christendom
41.
And Unitarians, to be numbered within and without the churches by myriads in Christendom, whether bearing a distinctive name or not, have in every generation held fast to the belief that original Christianity was marred by no such blot on its brilliant disc as the exaltation of Jesus into the place and name of Deity
42.
What is it, then, that we discover in this gospel? It does indeed appear to be an intolerable abuse of criticism to pretend that Christendom has been mistaken in the east and in the west, in the north and in the south, in the general drift of this book—and to deny that the manifest intention of the writer was first of all to Deify Jesus
43.

We find clear traces of the truth in the epistles of Ignatius, in the Trypho of Justin Martyr, in the books of Irenaeus concerning Heresies, in the treatise of Arnobius against Heathenism, as will be seen in a later page; but the set of the current of thought all over Christendom was very early towards the psychology which in after-times became universal

Christians are men who 'wait for God's Son from Heaven;’ who 'love His appearing;’ who expect Resurrection and Immortality in soul and body, at His return; who look to 'inherit the Earth;’ and who know in themselves, 'as to the times and seasons,’ that sudden destruction is coming upon modem society and the wickedness of Christendom, while all creation waits with outstretched neck for the 'manifestation of the sons of God

Now the words which occur constantly in the prophetic and apostolic writings in reference to judgment to come, are, as is known, taken by nearly all Christendom, and have been taken for many centuries, to stand for the idea of misery only; a misery believed from the supposed nature of the sufferers, as beings immortal, and, from oilier declarations of inspired writers, to be absolutely endless

Every one of the apostles left the world warning the churches of some Power of Darkness which was soon to arise, and to found its throne in Christendom on the basis of a widely corrupted doctrine
60.
Every century of Christian history teaches the lesson that not only are separate communities subject to rapid changes of belief and feeling, through the influence of leading minds; but that currents of thought sweep, like pestilential gales, over wide areas of Christendom, poisoning the ideas of men in millions, in a comparatively small number of years
61.
Not only was a general corruption of doctrine possible: it was certain, except under one condition—that the reverent study of the New Testament Scriptures should become the absorbing interest of the best intellect of every sacred society in Christendom, and that the churches should burn with a flaming zeal of adhesion to apostolic teaching and example, which would effectually dispel the danger from corrupted Judaism, from Greek and Oriental philosophy, and from popular paganism
62.
After the publication of Augustine's predestinarian theology, Christendom sank paralyzed on the fiery shores of his eternal hell; the gloomy priesthood ruled the new Gothic world, and the doctrines of Purgatory and Mariolatry were invented as necessary reliefs for souls maddened with fear of eternal torments

66.
What else is this Vaticanism, which sits like a nightmare on the breast of slumbering Christendom, but the perfection of unreason and spiritual selfishness, the result of an overpowering fear of an eternal hell? Well sing the angels in the Apocalypse at the downfall of 'Babylon,’ if by Babylon be symbolized that religion which is the work of theologians to whom 'the heart of a Husband and a Father is,’ in the language of Sir James Stephen, 'an inscrutable mystery;’ and who, by an enforced celibacy, have cut off the teachers of the people, as well as the masters of the confessional, from personal experience in those two chief revelations of God’s loving Nature to mankind
67.
The doctrine that our eternal life is in the Christ will, as the experience of many now attests, corroborate that faith which 'conquers the world’—a faith which, rooted in stable conviction, will not forsake men in difficulties, will seem not less true when beset with temptation than when the heart is 'lifted up in the ways of the Lord;’ not less true when we look upon the thoughtless crowds of great cities, or the brazen face of apostate Christendom, than when we muse in secret, or gaze on the sweet countenance of Nature
68.
Perhaps it may be said that just at the very time when it became of more importance than ever that the church should take care what was to be taught as Christianity among all the nations of the world, the work of evangelizing was commenced, as it had been in several similar preceding ages of activity in Christendom, in a spirit of unquestioning submission to the forms of thought stereotyped by previous generations
69.
There is something so heart-striking, so fitted to compel attention, in the apostolic warning of Christ’s imminent return to destroy obstinate and obscene worshippers of idols, to avenge the perversion of the truth in Christendom, to raise in glory the sleeping saints, and to establish Heaven's kingdom on earth,—that even languid India must lift her head to listen, and haughty philosophic China hearken awe-struck to the trumpet-blast
70.
It happens that I write these closing pages in that Great City which, since it ceased to trample down the earth by force, has governed it chiefly by genius, by fraud, and by beauty; and still stands as the ancient centre of the religious life of Christendom

The conceptions of God long prevailing in Christendom have been such as to render atheism in its various forms a tempting refuge from the haunting spectres of superstition
72.
*If it be objected here that we represent the security of our eternal life as guaranteed by a Book, to be ascertained only by criticism of that Book, and as reaching no further than such dubious criticism can carry us, so that if the Bible were lost our hope of Immortality would be lost with it, it may be replied that as a matter of fact the Bible has not been lost; and that the record among men of the Incarnation of God in Christ does not depend only upon the New Testament writings, but also upon that confirmatory tradition of Christendom, of which the Bible history is but a transcript

It would require some argument of overmastering force to persuade nine-tenths of the scholars of Christendom to perform this operation upon the promise of life to the righteous" Edward White, "Life in Christ,"

I may say, in short, that I took part in that glorious expedition, promoted by this time to be a captain of infantry, to which honourable charge my good luck rather than my merits raised me; and that day--so fortunate for Christendom, because then all the nations of the earth were disabused of the error under which they lay in imagining the Turks to be invincible on sea-on that day, I say, on which the Ottoman pride and arrogance were broken, among all that were there made happy (for the Christians who died that day were happier than those who remained alive and victorious) I alone was miserable; for, instead of some naval crown that I might have expected had it been in Roman times, on the night that followed that famous day I found myself with fetters on my feet and manacles on my hands

The niece and housekeeper were present at the conversation and could not find words enough to express their thanks to God at seeing their master so clear in his mind; the curate, however, changing his original plan, which was to avoid touching upon matters of chivalry, resolved to test Don Quixote's recovery thoroughly, and see whether it were genuine or not; and so, from one subject to another, he came at last to talk of the news that had come from the capital, and, among other things, he said it was considered certain that the Turk was coming down with a powerful fleet, and that no one knew what his purpose was, or when the great storm would burst; and that all Christendom was in apprehension of this, which almost every year calls us to arms, and that his Majesty had made provision for the security of the coasts of Naples and Sicily and the island of Malta

91.
Every man in Christendom has undoubtedly been taught by tradition, by revelation, and by the voice of conscience, which can never be gainsaid, that murder is one of the most heinous crimes men can commit; it is thus affirmed in the gospel, and they know that this sin of murder is not altered by conditions—that is to say, if it is sinful to kill one man, it is sinful to kill another

I have not been able to examine the book with reference to the author’s views upon the great doctrinal questions which divide Christendom sufficiently to form a judgement as to those views; his comment upon one or two doctrinal passages I have read, and I am lead to believe and hope that he has been too wise to write in the interest of any party
