The Unity Underlying the Various Conceptions of the Gospel
2 Timothy 2:8
Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:


The West Indies are a long chain of islands, seeming to be widely and completely separated from each other, each one a lovely jewel resting on the heaving bosom of the sea. But if you look below the surface of the ocean you discover that each of these islands is bound to all the others; that they are, in fact, the topmost points of one long mountain chain which has been submerged. So that whilst each island seems to be separate, all rest upon and are a part of the vast and substantial unity which lies far below. "My gospel": each one of the Churches may correctly use the phrase, yet these are not many gospels, but in essence and substance one.
