At the meeting of the Association at Hotel Boylston, February 5, a student cited the words of Jesus, "Put up thy sword," in the course of a discussion of certain proposed disciplinary action towards students who were expelled some months ago for "immorality."
At the conclusion of the discussion, our Teacher said the following "word in due season."
While Jesus' life was full of Love, and a demonstration of Love, it appeared hate to the carnal mind, or mortal thought, of his time. He said, "Think not that I came to send peace on the earth; I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man's foes shall be they of his own household."
