The Protestant Magazine

By Editor

THE Protestant Magazine for the second quarter of 1910 is at hand. It contains some strong articles. The editor, in “The Consistent Intolerance of the Roman Catholic Church,” shows how, in the recent attitude of the Vatican toward Mr. Fairbanks and Colonel Roosevelt, the Papacy stands for the same principles of intolerance that have been exhibited in its earlier history. The methods of this so-called vicegerent of Christ are contrasted with the ways of the lowly Man of Nazareth. “The Unanimous Consent Principle Applied to a Famous Test,” “The King’s Oath,” “Molding Public Sentiment,” “Rome’s Aggressive Campaign,” and “The Papacy and Prophecy” are other articles in the Editorial department. P. T. Magan writes on “Protestantism Versus Roman Catholicism,” and Dr. Howard Kelly gives “A Physician’s View of Christ’s Miracles.” Under the head of “The Vatican Incident” are brought together the comments of various papers regarding the question of Mr. Roosevelt’s experience with the Pope. Altogether, this is one of the most readable numbers which has been issued, dealing as it does with questions of current interest in our own day. It should be read by every reader of the REVIEW.

ONE of our ministers, sending in an obituary of one of our sisters for publication, says: “It seems too bad we are losing so many of our members by death. May the Life-giver soon come.” This is the cry coming up from many burdened hearts at the present time. We are in a land of sin and sickness and death. Our hearts long for deliverance, but let us draw courage from the knowledge that we have not long to wait. “Yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.” Let us bend our energies to the finishing of this work, faithful to the charge he has committed to us, and soon we shall share in the rejoicing of victory, the grand consummation of our longing hopes.
