But continuation ol numerous in.
dependent nations with the strifes
and animosilies incident thereto
would defeat the purpose of a divine
p.ovideaoc and at least delay the
work OF the atonemcnt Of Jesus
Christ At the risk of being regard
ed as O hetrodox ! will say that the
mission Of Jesus Christ into this
world was thai of a reyclatcr and
unificr His revelation Of the tender
loving condeseenlion Of the Father
IN his sermon the mount "ye being
~ know hoa 10 give good things
nto yCur children. how much more
sail our Heavenly Father give good
things TO them that ask him "
The tenderness and beauty OF that
revelation is uneQualed BIZ any Of
lic prophets and is equal Is not to
le found IN Tie great book OF nature
The word indicating the character
ol Ills mission into this world was
originally written aud divided as fol
nws, AT one ment" indicating very
c'carly that the ullinate object Of
his life and teaching was not only to
uiiy the nations Of this world, but
bring them into a connection OF
oneness with the Divine Life; hence
.he PRAYER Thy will be done on
earth as It is IN heaven" but men use

tc men seems clearly indicated both
IN nature and revelation. hence the
prophets speak OF a time when men
shall beat their swords into plow
slears and their spears into pruning
Knives, when nation shall no more
take up sword against nation.
But how viii that glorious consum
nation be brought about ana ran

soon after men have learned TO cast
aside the corrading and misleading
