This prayer We must answer as
the agent Of God.
The great gift Of the primitive
church was not an ecclesiastical
system, not scientific discovery or
philosophical research.
But a spiritual force that gave
moral power TO men in a degree
hitherto unknown, and brought 4
new joy and delight in the new con-
ception and realization of God.

IFS gladness not its sorrow. not its
assigning the spiritual world 70
Christ and the material world to the
devil, but its drawing from the
spiritual world joy so abundant
that it ran over upon the material
world and transformed IT,"
This joy was in a person in Christ
dwelling in the heart.
The business of the church today
is not TO promulgate the opinions.
the usages of the early church.
But TO propagate the power, to
inspire the joy that was theirs be-

The love for Him that burned and
famed in their hearts made life a
JOY and a delight II made the

the martyrs to meet their fate re-

Then will humanity, working with
God, demand and work out a King
