'Our study has made it evident that there is a fundamental Christian Faith expressed in the Ecumenical Creeds, upon which the three great divisions of Christianity do actually agree. This constitutes a sufficient platform for reunion. It is also evident that each of the three divisions has its own particular symbols that are dear to it, and which it will not readily abandon. If the unity may be arranged in a supreme jurisdiction, on the basis of the fundamental Faith and Institutions of the Church, then the subordinate jurisdictions representing each of the three divisions, and the particular jurisdictions into which each of these are or may be divided, may still retain their particular symbols and particular institutions without any interference whatever on the part of the higher jurisdiction; just as in the American States each has its own special constitution and jurisdiction, all under the supreme jurisdiction of the United States, with a constitution which so limits its supreme power as to prevent any intrusion upon the jurisdiction of the States. What is possible, and has been actual and useful for more than a century in civil government, is just as possible and may be just as useful in ecclesiastical government. There will still remain questions of Faith and Institutions concerning which there may be difference, but as to these every jurisdiction should exercise the Christian grace of charity. All Churches for the sake of unity should adhere faithfully to the Catholic principle of Vincent of Lerins, "Quod ubique, quod semper, quod ab omnibus creditum est."'
