SEC. II. CAUSES OF RAPID PROGRESS OF CHRISTIANITY. 1. Causes of success of Christian religion? Gibbon enumerates five. 1st, Its zeal derived from Jewish religion, but purified of all its narrowness and unsociability ; 2d, Doctrine of a future life clearly explained in New Testament ; 3d, Miraculou...s powers of primitive church ; 4th, Pure and austere morals of Christians ; 5th, Union and discipline of Christian church and establishment of church gov- ernment. 2. First cause explained ? Zeal of Christian far beyond that of polytheist. In polytheism, strictly speaking, no creed, no fixed princi- ples gods themselves hostile to one another.
