520 _a"No Sect in Heaven" by Elizabeth H. Jocelyn Cleaveland is a poem published in the early 1860s. It presents a thoughtful reflection on the nature of religious divisions and the common humanity of believers as they face the afterlife. The poem delves into the theme of sectarianism, suggesting that earthly distinctions are rendered meaningless in the realm of heaven. The poem presents a dreamlike journey to the afterlife, where various characters representing different sects and denominations attempt to cross a river to reach heaven. Each character—ranging from a Churchman with his gown to a Quaker in gray attire, Dr. Watts with his hymns, and Wesley with his manuscripts—struggles against the current, forced to leave their earthly identifiers behind. Ultimately, their personal beliefs and practices do not determine their fate; when they arrive in heaven, all distinctions evaporate, and they are united in Christ's righteousness, emphasizing a message of unity in faith.
