President Reed chose for his subject
christianity and Modern Substitutes"
and took for the text For there is none
other name under Heaven giving
among men whereby we must be
saved"
The sermon was a mastery review OF
Christianity, compared with Moham-
mendanism, Confucianism and Budd-
hism, with results of each as shown by
the history of the world. The speaker
mentioned the substitutes for Chris
tianity in the system of government,
education and economics and showed
the. utter failure of all. China's ethi-
cal experiment for 400 years, India's
philosophical experiment for 1000 years,
Greece's aethestic culture for 1000
years were particularly mentioned as
showing striking examples of failure,
and the modern soclalistic schemes
were classed as coming in the same
category. Professor Reed said all have
failed IN the past. and will in the fu-
ture, and that the socialism of the
gospel of Jesus Christ only has met
and can meet the worlds needs.
