This Is the distinguishing tact in the life

Christ
The mind Of Christi" It does not ex-
press merely one phase Of his being, nor
does it simply define psychologicsly a
special aspect OF his life The mind Of
Christ is rather the summation Of all that
he is: ii includes everything that goes to

This is never understood until one ap-
preciates Christ's Impressions as his eye

undertakes TO DO for mankind-this gives

What is thus seen in him must be dis
coverable in all who bear His name
