Pulitloel philosophy a l'abld_’1‘ory, while anothenmau with equal candour, equal ability, studying the same facts, will some out adouble and twisted Liberal. When we remember that lt. is not truth, but the philosophy oi truth, that has mabe Creeds -and Theologlcs, the marvel is that there are not more denominations than there are, for so far fan i know every man has a perfect right to his own philosophy oi truth. The dilicnltiee to be confronted in the greater or. lesser union are difficulties of philosophy nor. of fact., If we think first ofthe larger union, we will have to' include with the , Presbyteriaul, Dougrenatlonaiiets, and Methodists, the Church of England and the Baptists. In this cssethe first dlfiieulty to be met and dealt wi h is the government of the church. Cicero once said, I think in his Manilian Law, “There are only three distinct. forms of government. possible; all ot.`iior`fnrm_s are .only ‘inodiflcations of these ti`rre_t". ' Of course the form _of_a goverunient lu determined by the D00i»_lo|i _ occupied by the supreme autharity in the state. ,li it. real. wholly In a`n individual, the government is an Autoeracy, such aa we have in Russia at the"Diesent time. If lf. be place.i :in the Arlst.ocracy` of the nation. the govern- mentjis kuowin as an Ariat/ccracy. if placed in the people, it is a Democracy. Aathere are only three forma of government, possible for s narlon so there are only three forms ol government piasible for a church. The supreme authority ` must lodge somewhere, either in an individual. In a select. few or1in the _masaes. The government of the`Ghu'roh, of England is Autocratlc, the government of the Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist is Aristocratir-, the Uongmgatioualiabs, Democratic. So fat: sa government is concerned, there need be no difficulty with the Presby- trei-ians, Methodists and. Baptists; they are all dssentiaiiy the same. governed I y the Prcsliytery. The ditiicnlties exist in this Cttuti-ii of England and the Uon~ grigationhl churches. The Church of cf»E_ngiaiid‘ is not only a hierarchy, fielding that ~ the Episcopal form or uliiirch government (which she has a p v-feet right lu hoid) hut. insists upon i being the only form of church government, and without it there is no church at dll. This assertion, not to save assumption. rests upon the doctrine of the Apostolic succession, that is tho doctrine of the direct and hlerachlcal succession from Cliri~rt.'» apostles. The church of Enizlmid \iiairii._nlns that tht- Ullrlsiiari Ministry is a succession, and that \-ailrl ordination is transmitted io the Clvrgy only hy acerc-Illed Bishops who have received the iiowi-rui’_ urdlndliuh In ilirdut, ~Iine _ol ~iirci-ssifgri from the Apostles.

Such an amalgamation would not be ri union but. an absorbtlon, A thing, in my judgement, not likely to occur in the near future. While l do not _think that the Church of England ir likely to recede from this position. I am :toad sure that the Pxeshyterlaus, Methodists and Congregationsliats in Canada will never accept Epliropacy on 'ho basis of the Apostolic Succession. In the other four churches, the government is looked upnn as accidental and in no way essential to the existence of the church, and can therefore be changed ai any time without. _ln any way affecting the validity of. the church. So far as union is concerned, there is no great viifiiculty L0 be metin ehuroh government. Each one may concede much oi- little withoutprovoklng the charge of lncon sistency. _ " The next irrcsl. .difficulties to union fnust be sought. in the doctrines of the dlfioreot denominations. It has been said already that Creeria and Tlieoiogios are philosophy pure and simple. Galvin- ism, as worked out by Augustine, and developed by Calvin, la simply Augustine and calvin's philosophy of Gott and the universe. The some is true-,of Arminl- anlsm. .The.tl'isory applied -to Uhristiani-'l ty by Arminins and modified to ‘some extent by Wesley is nothlngmore than philosophy, And it inustberemembemd that these philosophic Greerla at-.e no pssuiisi-` tnosrisnmiry. They belong in philosophy-aa philosophy from the days of Plato itll the present. Outside ct Chrlstlani'y, they are known as Neeea' sity and Freedom. As known lu the church, Calvlnism can be epitomized In very few words. "God forqcrdaloed, therefore He ioiekoew" is the fnnda mental assumption of Calv'nl|in "God foreknew therefore He lrath foreor _dained" is the fundamental afsumpiin. 'of Arriiinlnnisin. it lsquiie evidvnt tm ivaryoneihatticth those suusinsnts an- bureiy metaphysical assumption ,sud it is nowhere written in the divine records that a man is either saved orient. in virtue oi his metaphysiciai Croed, why their should there he any discussion about t.he‘matteri Surely we have reached the day when every man has' a right ,te his own philosophy of truth.

Caivlnlsm sets out with the assumption of God's awful Sovereign- ty, and by the, sheer force of logic neees_sarliy.eondItlona the freedom cf the human will; but it has taught Armlnan- lam that God cannot be played with, thai. there is an eternal righteousness lying at the heart. of things with which man has tooount., that whatsoever a u.an soweth Ill ,that shall he also reap in Time and in , Eternity. Oalviniam has taught. us to come into God’s presence revereritly, thoughtfully. aa coming into the presence of the King Eternal, immortal, invisible. Oilvinism-has taught us that the Lord God Ouinlpotentrolgnelh and that Iir is carrying forward ills great uurposestn scme“farofTdivIiie event to - -.rich th. whole Creation moi-es." Calvinism has put. the emphasis upon God‘r\ Sovereignty Aruiinianism, ou the other hsnil, has put theeinphasis upon nian's freedom, upon riian's respoiisibltity, and tauglit us tlini he must stand forth in his fi'ec<'o.ii arnl manhood and render an account oi himself to God and the universe. il saved, it is because lie has acceptor' Gods offers; if lost, hehaeiroue but iiiuisuli toblume. Thls,Calvinlsm has lcaricl from Armlnianisni, and has iucurporatcrl iuau's responsibility into her Crvori as Arininlanisui has Inroi-penile the Sovereillility of Gcd. \Nc oiinrroi reconcile the two, but we can trust tlnir tilisre isahlglier law in which the trio are reconciled.

Sueh.or nearly such, are the questions youiwill be called upon to discuss, wht-it the hasieof union is sent down fto hr accepted or rejected by the vote of the people. May the great liead of tht Church guide us along the Datlivvny where He would have us go. Ido not think the union of the Metho- dist, Presbyterian, and Congregatioriiil Chuichesis an necessity in ilie Maritliirr Provinces, perhaps nutin Ontario. All the churches are well equipped for their work, and pi°i~p~\red to carry It for- ward along their own lines of iictiori. They have their own Educational Institu- tions, their own Missionary organizatioiii-. well equipped and doing excellent work. But it is in that great lone land where we hear the tread of niillons yet to be,whcrc the uiiiun has become an imperative necessity. Each of the tlirce denomin- ations is straining every nerve to keep up with the necessities of the work, and ni-c not alile i.o compass lt. Only a week ago, a minister who had just |xn'lved from the North-West. told me that our General Super-intenriviit 'out thero had Icit. for England in iirdér to gel. it hundred additional prenciitrs. and the irriaii who told me arirleri “hy the time Ire i'ui.\irni~< with that riuuriisr. an ailrlltlorial liuuttie-I will have become a necessity."
