Description: Excerpt from The Religion of to-Morrow "You would better," said a learned friend, who had examined the manuscript of this essay, "add a succinct statement of your creed, so that the reader may not be led by his own inferences to locate you theologically where you do not belong." Hence: I believe in the Trinity, in the Atonement, in Salvation through Faith, in Heaven, in Hell, in the Church, and in all the other doctrines of the historic creeds of Protestantism. But I believe that the common notions of these doctrines contain error. This error is an inheritance from the theology of the Roman Church, which substituted a complicated system of divine machinery to do what can only be done by the divine personality. The thought of this age is discovering the utter untenability of mediaeval dogmatism, and is swinging back to that view which was held by the apostles and the Greek fathers.
