XVI-XIX These changes of the past are assuredly predictions for us Of the similar modifications which any analogous religious reforms must hereafter introduce into the temporal concerns Of the nations by which they may be adopted. If we alter our creed in any important particular, it will not be only in the formularies Of the Church or in books of divinity, or in the religious sentiments Of individual souls, that the result will be found In departments Of human energy apparently disconnected with religion, among the habits, feelings, efforts Of the boor and the poet, the statesman and the man Of science, the result will be marked. The little leaven of doctrine will leaven the whole lump of life's affairs. Through remote and imperceptible channels the influence will force its way, and because a man has altered his ideas of things above, he will alter his action as regards all things below.
