ABSTRACT
Eastern Christianity has made most of the incarnation. Historically Christian theology, particularly in the West, has centered around the conception of a Transcendent God. As far as doctrine goes Christianity took over a great inheritance from the Jew, for arrestingly enough the Jew, though he belongs to the East, had never anything in common with Eastern Pantheism. Evangelical Protestantism throws upon the members of Protestant churches a larger burden of individual responsibility than does the Catholic Church. The typical evangelical Protestant has had little to sustain him in his religious life save his sense of reconciliation with God, from whom possibly he never vitally thought himself to have been estranged, and a consequent spiritual peace. The Protestant doctrine of the infallibility of the Bible assumed its authority not only in the region of religion but in science and history as well. The high Anglican Church approached the Latin Catholic Church in its insistence upon sacramental regeneration.
