A Plea for a Holy Confederacy

ON Sunday, October 10, Rev. A. H. Thompson, of the Waugh Methodist Episcopal church, of Washington, D. C., delivered a sermon on “A Plea for a Holy Confederacy.” In his sermon the speaker took the ground that Catholics and Protestants should unite for the purpose of bringing about their religious purposes. He said: “We hail with delight the suggestion of Bishop McFaul that Protestants and Catholics alike should sink their petty differences and unite in opposing the influences which threaten to profanize modern life. Should that great communion lead the way, it would not be very long before Christians of all shades of belief would be united as an alliance so powerful that no person on earth could resist it.” Only a person who knows the third angel’s message knows what there is in such a proposition.
