The Salvation Army’s Methods

Mr. Charles Booth, in a new book on East London, in speaking of the methods of the Salvation Army, says: “Not by this road (if I am right) will religion be brought to the mass of the English people.” He says that the people of East London delight in doctrinal discussion, and are not irreligious, but that the army supplies them with what they want neither in one direction nor the other. The crowds attend mainly for diversion. And this is doubtless a just judgment. The Army is not founded on the word of God. It is not a plant of God’s planting. Matt. 15:13.
