Excerpt from Come Home: An Appeal on Behalf of Reunion This treatise is the result of the writer's Parochial experience. As he has gone about from house to house he has found the haziest and most unscriptural views prevailing about what the Church of Christ is, and what are the essential doctrines of the Christian religion. It is held, generally, that the only thing that is of any consequence at all, is the safety of the individual soul, the assurance of personal salvation, based upon a sensible and generally sudden conversion. The position and claims of the Church of Christ and the imperative authority of the doctrines of the Faith are never thought about, or if they are forced upon the attention, they are pushed aside with some shallow traditional platitude. It never occurs to the ordinary man or woman that there is any Church existing in the world to-day that has a right to command their allegiance and their services, or that there are certain doctrines which they must believe or cease to be Christians.
