The Worlds Attitude.

In conclusion DR. Conaty said: The
world today resents authority in religion.
rebels against doctrinal religion Indeed,
the age seems tending toward revolt
against all forms OF objective religion
Moral prosperity Is binding men to the
need Of the supernaturaI-commer
business development. scientific successes
Intellectual growth-all these are crowdinR
out the spiritual and making men sufti-
Cient unto themselves, with no place no
time for religion or God. There are facts
which cannot be brushed aside, and the
greatest of all facts in history Is Jesus
Christ Prophesied prefigured, expected
during four thousand years of the world s
history. He came, lived among men, taught
the gospel of the new life, was crucified.
rose from the dead, and before He passed
from the eyes OF men established the
church OF the new dispensation. Another
Sact is the upbuilding of His doctrines In
the Christian Church The fishermen
whom He had selected His apostles
preached His gospel through the world,
ana Jew and pagan alike accepts It,
though II contained precepts that were
shard for human ears TO hear and for
human flesh to submit to. The morality
OF the Christian Church made the ciyiliza-
tion of Europe, and brought across twenty
hcenturies Of the worlds history the bless
ings Of an ennObled humanity to those who
today within the reach OF its inf1u-
ence. Another fact is that not only Christ
himself was teacher whose doctrine was
objective and had TO be accepted, but the
Christian Church which succeeded to the
mission OF teaching has for twenty CEN
turtles asserted the same truth and de-
maDded the same obedience. Jesus Christ
- the way. the truth and the life Re-
dempiiOn through Him is our salvation
His precepts are the way in which man
must walk; His gospel is the trsth which
alone can satisfy the human intellect; His
life is the model upon which all true life
is to be formed.
Jesus Christ is needed today. as He
was needed when the synagogue fulfilled
Its mission. and Roman Imperialism had
centralized power among the nations. The

The witness said that he had been pres
