Excerpt from An Outline of Christian Theology IN the twentieth century we inherit a Christianity. It comes to us from Jesus the Founder, but it comes, of necessity, through the long course of time. It is no fault of ours if in these centuries it has become modified, and is not altogether like that which came from him at first. We could not expect, and he could not expect, that his gift to the world would remain unmodified. He must have known that his gift of spiritual life would enter into the ever-chang ing human world, and influence the ages as they passed, and be influenced by them in turn. This certainty of change is due not only to human de pravity, or even to human imperfectness: it is due just as much to the germinant vitality of the spiritual life itself. From all these causes combined it has come to pass that we inherit a Christianity differing in many respects from that to which Jesus gave the first impulse in the world.
