Fenton B.A. Trivitt Memorial Church. day he delivered two sermons from .James 1,26 on the wide subject' of •Religion. In his morning address he declared that Religion in the large sense was the realm of Duty. The word Religion was Roman in origin If is true that there -was not much ■ethical or spiritual content »in the Old Pagan conception of Religion, but great changes were made at the introduction of Christianity. Under Christian influences Religion became more normal, more spiritual and in the best sense, more world-wide or Catholic, than it ever had been be­ fore. But a great danger threaten­ ed when the influx of the barbarians into the outlying provinces of the Roman Empire made all but impos­ sible, humanly speaking, the task pf the Catholic, church. There are no grander- chapters in human his­ tory than those which tell of the long and in the end successful struggle of the Church to raise the low stan­ dards of religious thinking and liv­ ing which the Northern races had brought with them into the Imper­ ial territories. What was the secret of the Church’s success in this long warfare? She won beause .she per­ suaded the vast multitudes over whom she had obtained, a moral quest, that submission to' legitimate Apostolical authority was a necess­ ary condition for. living in the full­ est sense the religion of Jesus Christ. The church had no- armies, or arma­ ments with which to enforce her de­ crees. But her canonical thunder achieved what cannon thunder could accomplish. In those .days of tihe Church's power Disci­ pline and Duty went hand in together. They are both necessary for full religious life. No religious life, individual or corporate, can be com­ plete without, The preacher wound up .his morning sermon by asking this qestion: What is the true cause of the irreligious condition of so large a part of the world to-day? In his evening .sermon he attempt­ ed to answer his own question. He pointed out that the religious con­ fusion of the Twentieth Century was legitimate result of the religious revolution of the Sixteenth Century, tt is usual in common speech to ap­ ply the term “Reformation” to this revolution. But the term “Reform­ ation” can only be applied to this revolution after many qualifications This religious not only the Roman Conceptions of Au- ■and Theology but also the Roman Conceptions of Dis- and Duty.

What do we actually see around us at the present moment We see- widespread, revolt against authority of every kind; we see almost universal neg­ lect of -the Sacraments (in Churches outside the Roman Communion) we see pathetic attempts to heal the breach in world-wide religious unity that was made in the Sixteenth Cen­ tury and even earlier; we see every man become his own Pope—and a very cocksure and infallible Pope at that! For it is more true today than perhaps’ it ever was, before that Ignorance- and Infallibility go to­ gether. They certainly have reaped a plenteous harvest in the- modern Protestant then quoted Macaulay’s c______ the reasons w.hy the Republic of Venice never produced a really great man—a man whose name belong not' only to Venice but to the whole wide world. 'The minds of,the Venetians “bred .in and in.” And- what hap­ pened to the Venetians has happen­ ed to most modern “sectaries. When Luther broke away from the inspira­ tion of Erasmus he sacrificed the intelligence of the Renaissance to the fanaticism of the Reformation— looking .at the latter under certain aspects which history brings only too prominently before us. And now after four centuries of “breed­ ing .in and in,” in what condition do those who accept what is popularly and loosely called “Protestantism” find themselves? They find them­ selves in a condition where Religion appears, to them the smallest thing in the whole world! Which typo of Religion have wo in this congre­ gation—the large type or the small one? When we follow our noses whore does, such guidance lead us? Are'we in possession of a Religion that lifts us up or of one that pulls us down? Does your preacher re­ semble the Prophet who spoke in all the fulness of the power of the Spirit of God? Does he teach with author­ ity and is he heard with respect? Could we answer those questions as posterity will be able to- answer thejn we might even now speak with confidence of the future of the Ang­ lican Church. The future indeed is dark. But we know that God’s sun world!
