This New Dispensation He has vouch- safed to us in the East, and we have been commanded to bear witness to the nations of the earth. . . . Thus saith the Lord : * I abominate sects and desire love and concord. ... I have at sundry times spoken through my prophets and my many dis- pensations. There is unity. There is one music but many instruments, one body but many members, one spirit but many gifts, one blood but many na- tions, one Church but many churches. Let Asia and 116 ORIENTAL RELIGIONS... AND CHRISTIANITY Europe and America and all nations prove this New Dispensation and the true fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of men. ' " This remarkable production — so Pauline in style and so far from Paul in doctrine — seems to possess everything except definite and robust conviction. And its limp philosophy was not sufficient to with- hold even Chunder Sen himseK from the abandon- ment of his principles not long afterward. This sweet perfume of false charity, with which he thus gently sprayed the sects and nations of mankind, lost its flavor ere the ink of his message was fairly dry ; while he who in similar language announced his call to ail Apostleship eighteen centuries ago, is still turn- ing the world upside down.
