520			_a"The Last Reformation" by F. G. Smith is a theological treatise reflecting on the nature of the church and the concept of reformation, likely written in the early 20th century. The work addresses the significant dissatisfaction among Christian communities regarding ecclesiastical structures and practices, emphasizing the need for a return to original apostolic principles. Smith suggests a reformation that transcends denominational divides and brings believers together in a shared understanding of faith and practice. The opening of the text introduces the author's intentions and critiques the current state of the church, claiming that it has deviated from its original purpose as intended by Christ. Smith outlines a perceived decline in evangelical faith and predicts a rising movement that will call for a reinvigoration of the church, restoring it to its foundational truths as expressed in Scripture. He emphasizes the role of the Holy Spirit in guiding this renewal, aiming to illuminate the path toward unity among true Christians, fundamentally characterized by love and a collective identity in Christ. The groundwork laid in this introduction sets a thought-provoking stage for an exploration of church history, organization, and the ongoing need for reform.
