DIR, MONGER TELLS
OF CHURCH'S WORK
Pastor Tells of Challenges
Hurled at Church Daily
by Various People.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONEl
and exaltation of any Individual or
class or race at the expense of the
weak"
THE world today needs an insti-
tuition that can take all of the wa =
ing elements Of our life and direct
their energies into constructive ef-
fort TO build up instead of permit
ting them to destroy themselves
There is an effort in certain quar-
ters today to turn the church into
an institution of reaction rather
than to carry on its great program
of leavening human relationship $
with the love of Jesus Christ.
Ministcring Agency.
"The church is in the world not
as a repressive agency i'm the inter
est of any race of class of indivi1-
uals but as a ministering agency
to those in greatest need. 1t is not
the church of Christ if it fails to
fill the needs of all who are within
the field Of its ministry. The Mas
ter defied the Pharisees, the tradi-
tons and customs Of His day in the
interest of an enclaved humanity
and his church can and must do
no less today. The man or woman
who is controlled by party or group
interest or racial consciousness, in
stead Of the best interest and WEI
fare of folks can no longer be re-
sarded as the highest type Of
Christian.
THE church has everything TO
offer to a confused and cropping
world. 1t has a great enough God
to offer to direct the course of
human affairs. He has promised t,
make the earth a fit place in which
to dwell, where the dreadful things
that have been happening Will no
longer be able TO work their dew
astation The controlling power
will be love rather than mere
power.
Gods Saving Power.
"The saving power of Jesus
Christ is to be given to the world
through the church that is built
upon a faith in him. It can i'm
plant in human hearts the hope
of a better world. 1t can be the
organized effort Of all controlled
by a common purpose to realize thu
hope which is given. The church
must become the outspoken and
aggressive leader in the rebuilding
of human relationships Then and
only then will the great unchurched
crowd who are now drifting with
the winds that blow and are indif-
ferent turn to the leadership of
the church in this time of chaos AMI
confusion Every church member
should now ask himself the ques-
ton, Am I giving a right interpra-
tatiOn of the teachings and life Of
Jesus Christ whom 1 claim as my
master?'"
