Protestantism and Rome

IN a sermon a short time ago the minister of the Simpson M. E. Church, Detroit, Mich., mentioned, as a commendable thing, that “there is a closer approach now between the Roman Catholic Church and the Protestant denominations in America than ever before.” Yes, that is so; but all such Protestant denominations are no longer Protestant; for if they were truly Protestant, they would protest against any sort of approach between themselves and Rome. But “Babylon is fallen;” and mother and daughters are finding this family relationship very agreeable. But the Lord says, “Come out of her my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins.”
