We Uni- tarians take it, therefore, that they are {n essence Chrlstlan deeds, and that pure feligion and true Christianity are some- thing native to the lheatt of man. Henee mankind eannot bo by fafth and nature— au the Confession of Falth of at Ieast two of the Jeading orthadox denominations of the country aifirma—* doad in atn, Wholly defied in nll the facultics aud parts of soul and body," made nprmlu to all good, and wholly inclined toall evil. To say that is to contradict nat only tho hest teachings of tl)u Bible, but also tho facts as they appear everywhero up and down the earth, to gvery unprejudiced man's oyes, Another doctrine that we Unitarians liold s, that the Dible is not ons homogencous book, withall its FII‘L! of equal valtio; but that it laja colloction of & great many books, written at widely different times, and by different men, and for different purposos, and of different deo- ['mu of accuracy and authenticity, and that In he course of ages these books have drifted to- ether in their present form, nobody knows ust how; some of the books belng taken nr malnly with Hebrow genoalogles and such things as could not possibly bo of much value outsido of the Jewish people; othiers of the books contalning accoupis and statemants which our modern selonco telld us cannot possibly be correct, and which we aro umnxn obliged to cast outs whilo others ngafn, kb the T'salms, tho Book of Job, Isalaly, tho Gospels, and some of the Epistics of Paul, are full of the vcr{ grandeat nnd hizheat religious teuthis and nsple rations which God has given to the race, o that we are to go to the Bible as to a gold-ming —not to doclare that uvorymlnxi we find s alike gold; but to admit frcely, ca honest, candid investigation vompels s to, that some of what wo find {s stoue, .o somo earth, and some the quartz that holds the gold, while some—and o yory large mmount—is gold {tselt, preclons and fndestructible. 'This fa® what we, as Unitarlans, hold aout thie Blble. And why do we hold 'thls, instead of the pre- vailh?r “orthodox lhcmz of the perfect (n- 1allibility of every part and word of the Bible! Blmply bocause thore Is no alternative for us, We are obliged to holil this, or elsc shut onr eycs and refuse o receive the light which set- cnee and scholarshlp are bringing to us. We are obliged to hold this, or clse give np the glndple that relizion and roliglous things are he judged of and jnterpreted rationally, Unitarians hold also o different doctring about Revelation from what fs generally held among other denominntions, Weo hold that God has not revealed Himself Ahng}y once, and that In tha distant past, but that He has been revealing Ilimsclf sinca the beginning of human hlstory, and ia roveating Himsell still—in the Bible, In other l1,'rnm| books of tho ages, fn human his- tory, in all nature, from blazing sun down to tinfest Inscct, in tho mind and heart of manj and that ns the ages go on, and aclonco eolarges, and men reach higher and higher attainments in clvilization and spiritual culture, o will roveal Himsclf morc and more. Another of our doctrines ns Unitarfans fs, that Inspiration Is not something which can be locked up 1 n hook, or conflncd to any age or people, bat that it "is 8 perpetusl, ever-living thing, belooging to all times and all pcoples; that now, to-day, and here in Ameries, just ag truly ns 2,000 or 5,000 l‘cm ago, or In Palestine, tho “Infinite splrh ol wisdom, nnd love, and walts to come with its Inspiration into ovory dovont and earncst soul. Another doctrine of otirs is, that salvation is not something which can bo transferred from one person to another, or that can bo bought for us by any belug outside of oursclves. Rather it " s ‘a thing of char- acter and ife, which every man must work out for himself. Virtue s salvation, vico I8 per- dition, Every man fs nccountabls for himself, nnd his guailt cannot be transferred to another. God cannot hold the whole puman race gullty becanso of what Adam did—it is incrodible. Nor 1f Jesus kept tho lawa of God nover 8o perfectly, could it avall for any but Iimself. To be srvc: 18 not to accept some bargain, but to obey ali the laws of ones being—physical, mental,” moral, spiritual. Nor does mich obedlence insure a sal- vation In a far-off Heaven merely, It Is salva- tion here nnd now, Another of our bellofs s, that “God s tho sana yeaterday, w—dn'} and forayer,” and there- fore that it o [s kind fo all ITis luian children not, fn this world, Howiil be not Icss kind tous {n thenext world, ' If He Is the Father of us all here, Ha will be tho father of us all there, and gnzwg.mn ever pluck out of His hund or His CAl Otlier doctrince wa hold, differing to a greater or less extont from thoso of the se:ts about us, but thesa that I have mentloned are the Frmcb [ml oncs. Theao glve perhapsas good an {deans t Is possibic for me Lo glve, of what 1t 13 that wo stand for as a body, " As I have sald, our con- tral principle Is, that "the same God made our minds and commanded them to think, that made our hoarts, and commanded them to loye and adors; and thatno ruligion can Pnslll)l y ho belng ton converts to uur one. To be sure lhe‘I do. It [s altogether natural that um‘v should. Nevertheless, ont hearts nre not troubled.

That Is not tho foptal idea from which the stream of our Unitarfantsm has flowed, It fs truo that that hos given us our namo, * Unitarians," But thero Is something a good deal deeper than that, in which our existence na n body or n movement roots ftself. That decpest, central, fontal thing with us {s our belkef in the etornal and essentfal barmony between religion and reason, or, perbaps better, fn tho necessity af always interpreting religion {n the light of reason, or, possibly bost of all, in tho applica- tion of tho sclentifle method to roligion. This fixed and ineradicablo bellef of ours Is the key and the only koy that unlocks Unitarlanism. It fs truc that we belicve, as a body, In the unity as opposed to the trinity of God. But wo belleve this because our principle of interpreting rellglon the light of reason, or of applylng the scientiic method to religion, compels us thius to belfeve. The Biblo, studled [n the light of this principle, we 'do not find to teach -or:f trinity, but always and everywhero ono God, and only one. Turning from this great book, which comea down to us from the Jews, and which wo call the Bible, to that ulhu:firelt Bible of God, tho book of nature, which sclenca 15 so fast rudl%, wa find there no trace of more than ona God.
