_Christian Social Union Addresses_, Bishop WESTCOTT. "Not to Destroy, but to Fulfil" SEPTEMBER 22 "Christ took the world as He found it, He left it as it was. He had no quarrel with existing institutions. He did not overthrow the Church--He went to Church. He said nothing against politics--He supported the government of the country. He did not denounce society--His first public action was to go to a marriage. His great aim, in fact, outwardly, and all along, was to be as normal, as little eccentric as possible. The true fanatic always tries the opposite. The spirit alone was singular in Jesus; a fanatic always spoils his cause by extending it to the letter. Christ came not to destroy, but to fulfil. A fanatic comes not to fulfil, but to destroy. If we would follow the eccentricity of our Master, let it not be in asceticism, in denunciation, in punctiliousness, and scruples about trifles, but in largeness of heart, singleness of eye, true breadth of character, true love to men, and heroism for Christ." _The Ideal Life_, HENRY DRUMMOND. "Religion has been treated as if it were a special exercise of a special power, not as if it were the possible loftiness of everything that a man could think or be or do." PHILLIPS BROOKS. Religion in Daily Life SEPTEMBER 23 "If we want to get religion into life, or anything whatever in us into life, we are bound to have no contentment, no rest, no dreaming, no delays, till we get thought into shape, feeling into labour, some conviction, some belief, some idea, into form without us, among the world of men. This is the main principle, and it applies to every sphere of human effort. So much for the habit whereby we gain power to bring religion into daily life.
