Saturdays Sermonette
BY LELAND II. TRACY,
st. Clements Church.

in the church today there are found
the two, great groups, the first giving
emphasis to the relation of the Christ
Heavenly Father to the child and the
child to Himself, and dwelling upon
the spiritual experiences of sin, pun
ishment, repentance and spiritual
peace. The other group of the follow
ers of the church consider how Jesus
rebuked those who neglected the
physical welfare of the least members
OF the human family whose value He
indicated by declaring that they were
part of Himself
The church, then, must nave a
double. ideal-the Importance of the
salvation of individual souls, and tine
Importance of giving a cup of cold
water to the humblest person in the
world. of the religious aspect of social
service. For the Christ teaches that
the kingdom of God Is to come through
the progressive specification of
human souls, and that the motive
which enables soul to progress in
spiritual growth is the desire to help
bring in the kingdom. The growth Of
the individual depends on his working
to bring in the kingdom. The king
dom cannot grow unless souls are
awakened and developed. u
The Christ is needed in the home
life of the world. in the business, in
Industrial activities and in the life of
the state, Christ said that He came
in order that men might have life
and that they might have it abundant
g." In His ministry, He healed both
body and mind; He helped those in
material distress; He fed the hungry
but these we're simple deeds Of mercy
rung TO call the people to an under
standing of His love for the higher
welfare of the people, and when the
people became convinced that He was
interested in their material, social and
political welfare. then they tried to in
duce Him to become king
Now if the Christ healed the sick.
it must be in accordance with the
highest ideals of the tnrist to prevent
Sickness through efficient health

more and more are the churches be-
ginning to realize that religion must
be interpreted in terms of modern life,
that there must De an application of

This has been expressed by the
