He might have been wronged by him. 1t is impossible to
imagine Christ as chershing il-wll toward anyone i'm
possible to think of Him as declining to live in friendly and
cordial relations with any one; impossible to think that
He ever ceased His efforts and labours for any one because
He felt personally grieved or afronted; impossible to
think that Christ did not love all men. Now, that is the
life we are trying to reproduce. And the man sadly fails
who does not love his enemies fails to catch the spirit OF
Christs life fails to manifest that life to the world.
Finally, l have been speaking all the while of enemies
as those who have offended US but our enemies are not
only those who have ~trespassed against us, but also those
whom we ourselves have wronged. We always regard the
man we have injured as our enemy. Now, if there is likely
to be a barrier between us and those who wrong us, ten
folded greater is the barrier between us and those we have
wronged. And if we bear malice in our hearts towards the
man who Injuries us, we bear a deeper and more intense
hatred to the man we have injured. A sad fact Of our
human nature, yet it is a fact. The man whom we
have most deeply w~ronged, we regard as our greatest
enemy. We loathe and hate none such as those we
have wronged. Now if there is any reason why we
should love those who have wronged us, tenfold greater
must be the. obligation to love those we have wronged
---make reparation, and seek their true interests. Surely
in this matter there can be no room for argument. We
must admit the duty not to fulfil it is to be self-con-
demned. We must love our enemies-those who tres
pass against us, and those against whom we have tres
passed.

The powerful opposition to the recogni-

riding at an unsanctioned Academic
League meeting, he made the remark,
when the severity of the sentence was
commented on, that it was the Academic

Kenna.
