Excerpt from The Presbyterian Quarterly and Princeton Review, Vol. 2: October, 1873 Major excommunication, which were behind them, but they never made men weep for the Saviour they had wounded in the sins they had committed. The true power of the pulpit is per suasive, and not dictatorial and no ministry, atmosphered and instructed by an authoritative Church, knows how to beseech men in Christ's stead. The sermons of the Latin Church are like its pictures gross representations of spiritual things. The glories of heaven, the terrors of hell, the beauty and power of Christ, the atonement for sin, are all grossly and often brutally sensualized. The main object of its'preaching is to raise money for its shows and for the aggrandizement of its priesthood. Heaven is offered freely to its best contributors. The glory of the Church is the glory of Christ, and the pulpit, of necessity, under such a system, becomes a mere instrument of ecclesiasti cal drill, and not the vital agency of the Holy Spirit to win and save souls.
