Christendom

The Holy Ghost has given us the three grand distinguishing titles, namely, “The Jew, the Gentile, and the church of God.” Alas! that which calls itself the church of God has become a corrupt thing—a vast mass of baptized profession. But clearly that which is called Christendom is no longer viewed as being on Jewish, or Gentile ground, nor will it be judged as such, but according to the profession which it takes up. Hence the appalling solemnity of Christendom’s position. He believe it, beloved friend, to be the most terrible moral blot in the wide universe of God—the masterpiece of Satan and the destroyer of souls.
O! the awfulness of Christendom’s condition—the awfulness of its doom! No human language can set it forth. May all who truly belong to the church of God, be enabled to yield a calm, clear, decided, and consistent testimony against the spirit, and principles and ways of that terrible thing called “Christendom.”
