Christian Endeavor and the Gospel of Love
There is doubtless no body in nominal Christendom to-day which, apart from Roman Catholicism, exerts a stronger molding influence over the great mass of professed Christians than the Christian Endeavor movement. Its motive in uniting all churches is doubtless laudable, but no true union can come outside of the holiness of truth, union in and through Jesus Christ. Anxiously, indeed, will the great Endeavor movement be watched to see whether its mighty host will choose the gospel of force or the Gospel of Love. Mighty, indeed, will it be with the latter; but utterly helpless against sin will it be if it turns to the political gospel of force.
