It is not, therefore, only a church, it is a school where we learn to respect the religions of all the people in the world and their scriptures and to pay our homage to the teachers that they have esteemed the most. This was the object of all the great prophets, and at the present moment this object, held by all prophets, is being fulfilled. And in this way with us is the blessing, inspiration, and power of all souls who have for ages come in this world and wakened humanity towards that goal which is the longing of every soul.
