Excerpt from History of the Church in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries, Vol. 2 No, the church of Christ is the same to-day that it has been ever since the days of its organization, and dates its charter from a far earlier century than the eighteenth, or any other century, -for we count our centuries from the very time of its beginning. Protestantism, too, as it is now and is yet to become, has long had its eye turned with fidelity toward the day of its rise; nor has it yet torn itself from the roots of its strength and existence. The names of Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, and Oecolampadius have to it the same pleasant sound to-day as during the heat of the first con ict. But the church, and especially the Protestant church in its present form and appointed method, and in its relations to the state and human institutions, has certainly acquired an appearance essentially different from what it possessed at that time. Or, rather, it must assume still another form if it would command the respect of coming generations; yet not by any external power, which it would find difficult to exercise, but by its real, Spiritual superiority.
