- NE of the most striking features of
UEy the religious life Of our time is
the growing sense of dissatisfac-
ton with the divided state of christen-
dom. and a constantly increasing longing
for the dawn Of the day when the wounds
i'm the body of Christ shall be healed. The
Christian conscience is profoundly dissat-
isfied with the present condition OF man.
fold divisions among Christian people.
And yet, in this sect-torn christendom
there are notes Of harmony and a funda~
mental note of unity which the ear that
is taught of God cannot fail to hear above
the discord. We are told much of the
"warring creeds'' of christendom. but let
us not forget that there is still one creed
which is still the universal creed OF the
Christian churches throughout the world
Roman Catholic and Protestant and
Greek Christians can all join in the
Apostles Creed; 1t is q symbol to them
all, and it contains the pith and marrow
Of the Christian religion.
Since the new century came in there
has been a remarkable development in
the direction Of Christian unity among
the numerous branches Of Protestant
The men and missions
movement and the more recent men and
religion movement have brought together
multitudes of Protestants Of diverse
names in q splendid effort to deepen the
power and to extend the influence OF the
Christian religion. Another important
EXPRESSION of this desire for Christian
unity is found in the Federation Of Prot

plate the sin of having lived a life that
was untrue? Only as we are grounded in
the truth can there be permanence to
what we are, and this is given to us in
the hour in which we yield to Him who
said, II am the TRUTH
The next abiding thing in Gods great
scheme for working out the truth, is
what men call 1.-The common good" AS
from the mountains, year by year, there
wash down the little particles of earth
and weathered rock which form the
broad and fertile plain, so from hills of
truth, under the storm and stress of hui
man striving, there is deposited, as gen.
erations pass. that which shall bear the
harvests of hope and love and progress
through the centuries that are to follow.
Only as we are true to ourselves and to
our fellownan do we serve and con-
serve the common good"
When time is past and the fierce sun
shall float lifeless orb upon the bosom
of the universe, and the last problem has
been solved, the final heartache sooth-
ed. the remotest sin punished or pardon
ed: one permanent and unchanging thing
shall stin abide. That deathless monu-
ment shall be the will of God" and as
He sits upon the throne of the eternities
the worshipping hosts of heaven will see
as the strong cornerstone of His abiding
seat, truth, eternal truth
Then let US hate a lie, and seeking still
to be true with the threefold honesty Of
which we sing, we shall have peace
within and help our neighbor win and
glorify our King.
