To fear them is to forget the eternal arms that are round about us. The symbols of the religion of democracy are to be found in the home, the school, the shop, and the State. The hum of industry arising from the work of men and women who serve the ends of the Infinite, who share the divine process, is to be the anthem of democracy. It has no priests, but its prophets are the poets and seers, men of vision and insight, who point out the "only way." The religion of democracy creates its own forms from age to age. The present it holds debtor to the past, but the future it holds as master of both. The man whose religion is interpreted in terms of democracy finds in the great, living, vital movements of the day soul-compelling power, which impels him to worship. He knows it is not of his strength, but that the eternal strength gives him power. He yields himself to the "power which makes for righteousness." He finds, in yielding to the larger life, the greater power, the deeper insight, which give him a consciousness of the cosmic forces working in him. Not in his own feeble strength does he go against the citadel of sin, whose walls are ignorance, vanity, and greed, cemented by tradition and buttressed by the dead weight of human inertia. The religion of democracy reveals to man the unlimited store of energy at his command: the lightnings and the tides of the spiritual world are at his disposal. Let them be directed by the hand of even a youth, and they in time will beat down all the massive bulwarks of sin. It is this sense of power, power to be and to do, power to uplift and direct, power to shape and create the future, that gives the religion of democracy its joy. It takes man out of...

Excerpt: ...and integrity as may be dis covered upon a careful investigation (of the character, so far as possible hereinafter recommended) and by the probability of his being able to render useful services. It shall also take into account the amount and kind of preparation that has been made for the work of the ministry and may advise with the candidate as to any further course of study that he may seem to need. 7. In case any Sub-Committee shall act unfavorably upon any application made as hereinbefore provided, or shall withdraw its approval as provided by Subdivision 5, such Sub-Committee may grant a rehearing and reverse its action upon such application, and no other Sub-Committee shall have any jurisdiction of the matter. In case of any unfavorable action of any Sub-Committee as hereinbefore provided, the applicant affected thereby shall have the same right of appeal as hereinafter provided by Subdivision 8. 8. If any Sub-Committee receives any information which to it appears sufficiently worthy of credence to justify further investigation, that any person whose name appears upon said authorized ministerial list, or who is performing ministerial duties within the territorial jurisdiction of said Committee, is morally unfit for the office of a minister in the Unitarian denomination. such Committee may, upon its own initiative, and shall, upon a written application signed by at least two ministers settled within this jurisdiction, institute an investigation and inquiry into the moral fitness of said person. If, however, said person is settled over a church, said Committee shall refer the matter to said cl1urch, through its Board of Trustees, to make such investigation and inquiry. Said SubCommittee shall thereupon not continue its investigation...

Excerpt: ...of our own churches, and we do not seem to care. We have a notion, some of us, that liberalism means that it does not make any particular difference. We seem to have an idea that "being broad" means that one thing is just as good as another, that there is no truth anywhere, that people are not expected to-find it, and that their business is to stumble along through life as comfortably as possible and grab all the material prizes which they can. We shall never have a strong Unitarian Church, such as it ought to be, until we educate our children into the idea that they, as worthy sons of the past, are to consecrate themselves to the light and the truth and the highest and grandest religious organization that the world has yet developed. Such slight, such petty things turn us one side. Let me at the close reiterate my statement that the Church is the one only organization on the face of the earth that has for its one distinct and definite purpose the making of men and women what they ought to be, and it is, therefore, the grandest organization on the face of the earth. And it follows, however poorly I may represent it, however poorly my fellow-minis ters may represent it, that there is no profession on the face of the earth to compare for one instant in nobility and dignity and grandeur and sweetness with that of the ministry. If I had a thousand other lives to live, I would be a minister in every one of them applause; for it is the one work of the minister to help people think and live, to help them find their way and walk in it.' And there is nothing else that is worth much as compared with that. Remember, then, what the Church stands for. Educate and train your children into an appreciation of these ideas; and, as this...

Bellows and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Official Report of the Proceedings of the Twelfth Meeting of the National Conference of Unitarian and Other Christian Churches Held at Saratoga, N. Y., September 20-24, 1886: With the Constitutions and by-Laws of the Conference, and a List of the Delegates And when with this gift we associate the name of Thomas Whitridge, who left the largest legacy the American Unitarian Association has ever received, the sum of one hundred thousand dollars, we congratulate the city which is so rich in men who have put their liberal faith into such humanitarian works. We congratulate the church which can number two such benefactors among its hon ored members. Baltimore suggests another name prominent in a very difierent way in our denominational interest. It was there that Rev. Charles H. A. Dall was born, Feb. I2, 1816. In quest of health, he went to India in 1855, at the earnest entreaty of Rev. Charles T. Brooks, who had just returned from a visit to that land and to Mr. Roberts, the son of a native Christian teacher, who was carrying on a little church in the Unitarian faith. From that time until last July, Mr. Dall has been engaged in this Indian mission with an earnestness, faithfulness, and consecration rarely equalled. This body has not known much about this work. It may be confessed it has never had much interest in it, because the motives which lead other religious bodies to foreign missionary enterprises are not active with us. But those who have made any inquiry have known that here a faithful messenger and servant of God was doing his work, and that, in India or in Bos ton, that work was not in vain. So year by year the Association has made its appropriations, and year by year the details of the mission have come back to us. As he began, he continued by laying stress upon school work, upon secular and industrial education, as the best method of bringing a higher life to these people; and no one who has read Mr. Arnold's remarkable descriptions of this land, its worship and its civilization, in his India Revisited, can doubt that there is vast room for the introduction of some higher life, and that just in this direction there is a loud call for us to carry on and increase this work. In a report on the India Mission made to this Conference in 1872, it was stated that, in all, about three thousand one hundred and Seventy persons were the recipients of Mr. Dall's teaching or help and the Objects of his personal interest and care. The school has been larger since then, and his influence has never waned. At his funeral last summer, a vast concourse of natives bowed low over his remains. Some cast garlands of jessamine into the grave; and some members of the Brahmo Somaj made a request to offer prayer above it, all the willing, heart-felt testi mony to a life of unfaltering devotion.
