SEELYE, Julius Hawley Quotes
(1824-1895), American educator
The true social reformer is the faithful preacher of Christianity; and the only organization truly potent for the perfection of Society, is the Christian Church.—I know of nothing which, as a thought, is more superficial, or which, as a feeling, is better entitled to be called hatred of men, than that which disregards the influence of the gospel in its efforts for social good, or attempts to break its hold on mankind by destroying their faith in its living power.
The true social reformer is the faithful preacher of the gospel, and the only organization truly potent for the perfection of society is the Christian church.
