Excerpt from Notes of a Theological Student

The steps of Christianity commencing in the Old World, we find there the scenes gloriously marked in the history of the Church, but with a kind of holy jealousy might we not hope, that hereafter the Wittenbergs and Augsburgs would be in the New World, that among the real children of the Reformation, in this fresh land of mind, would lie the springs of yet nobler development in Christ's kingdom.

The deep principle of that kingdom, Love, not yet fully known either in its perception from without or its energy from within, and especially as the source of energy, of fearless action, of practical, sublime conflict with error and all unrighteousness, would be the animating power, the heavenly fire of this new reformation. Its motto would be, "There is no fear in Love."
