"Love God above all things, and thy neighbour as thyself." This law can claim no significance for the relations of one country to another, since its application to politics would lead to a conflict of duties.

The love which a man showed to another country as such would imply a want of love for his own countrymen.

Such a system of politics must inevitably lead men astray.

Christian morality is personal and social, and in its nature cannot be political.

Its object is to promote morality of the individual, in order to strengthen him to work unselfishly in the interests of the community.
