Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Origin and History of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America
In this work I followed certain rules and convictions that may be brie?y stated. From the middle of the nineteenth century signs multiplied that the numbers were increasing, in most of the denominations, of those who desired to see plans inaugurated that would affiliate the evangelical churches in closer fraternal relations. The remarkable conference of the Evangelical Alliance in New York the work of the United States branch of the Alliance under the presidency of William E. Dodge and the executive guidance of Dr. Josiah Strong, the marvellous development of Christian Endeavor Societies and the organization of the inter-denominational Brother hood of Philip and Andrew, attested the presence of a spirit and desire to get together and labor together in the Name of the great Head of the Church.
