The Christian Union Quarterly, Vol. 7: July, 1917 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Christian Union Quarterly, Vol. 7: July, 1917

Once union appeared to be largely a theological prob lem, but students are now seeing it has clearly as much. To do with psychology, for our differences in many in stances are temperamental. Into this field we must go cautiously, seeking to adjust our differences by tempera ment rather than by theology. Perhaps more than the ology or psychology is the necessity of the higher ethical standard. The scandal of our pride, conceit, love of self, jealousy and other works of the flesh are known around the world. These must be got rid of, as the drunkard gets rid of his drunkenness, the fornicator of his forni cation and the idolater of his idolatry. These are the great sms that are barriers far above all the theological or psychological differences, so the emphasis 'of these times must be upon the fundamentals of the religion of Christ rather than upon secondary issues.
