feY WILLIAM T. ELLis.)

Writing as l am, In an upper room
i'm Jerusalem. this seems peculiarly a
place lesson. although 1t is seasonable
word for all the world. The story OF
the woman at the well. and her inter-
view with Jesus, is local in its set
ting and In its spirit; for this is the
center Of religious antagonism and big
otry. 1t is general, because this is the
day wherein the world is glimpsing
a new and larger conception of the
God who Is a Spirit, and who must be
worshipped In spirit and In truth.
When this befuddled time of ours
gets its ideas about God Strengthened
out 1t will find that many other mat
ters have likewise been cleared UP. AL
though they do not realize the fact,
many liberal persons nowadays have
conceptions of the supreme Deity that
are as narrow and Inadequate as those
of the earliest Hebrews who worshipped
their tribal God on these hills.
The modern mfsconception consisted
in regarding God as a Social Program.
or economic higher law. or vague
spiritual urge, or supreme necessity
for keeping the lower classes in order.
II is no exaggeration to declare that
multitudes of educated men and women
have no thought of God except as
factor in social reconstruction. He Is
that, but He is infinitely more.
A HIehbrow BIunder.
God is not a social program. God is
not a special partner with the Ameri-
can Eagle, or the British Lion, any
more than with the Prussian Eagle. He
is not citadel for capitalism nor
banner for bolshevism. To regard Him
as a mere adjunct of political and So
cial reform is impiety.
There is need for Clear thinking here.
While God has a relation to everything
human, He is first OF all and above all
else. the Eternal Deity. the uncreated
Creator, the Ruler Of the universe, the
King OF kings and Lord OF lords. He is
so exalted in His Character and rights
that he is entitled to worship from no

Mems attitude toward the league OF
nations, and upon the peace treaty,

views upon Coo. Society Is shaped by
its sense of the supreme. Everything
we are or do Is affected by our ideas
of God When we lift UP the popular
attitude toward the exaltedness and
holiness and justice of God we are
adopting the most direct means of
serving our time. Thit is why the
church is a more important present
factor In our troubled life than any po-
flitical party or organization, or any
economical movement. "Oh. come, let
us worship and bow down: let us kneel
