Meekness, liberality, tolerance of other confessions! These are great
virtues, but hard, very hard to practise in such hurrying, driving,
democratic, competitive times as ours, when respect for authority
seems to have almost died out. Nevertheless, they must be practised,
if the church is ever to fulfil her great mission, and to become in a
larger and truer sense than she has ever yet been, “The Church of the
People.”
