preach Jesus Christ than Pollyanna,
If they expect to build up the church
and secure real spiritual results,
Bishop Theodore Henderson told the
Colorado Annual Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church.
IF 1 did not believe that every
body everywhere must believe in
Jesus Christ for salvation. l would
either get converted or leave the
ministry" he said.
Il am not concerned so much re-
garding where I came from as the
fact that ! am here on this earth and
need the help that Jesus Christ alone
can give.
THE safety and power of the
Methodist Episcopal Church in this
time of stress and controversy is In
a personal experience of the saving
power of faith in the Lord Jesus
Christ.
Every preacher should be an
evangelist and every church should
be evangelistic." he said. "Funda-
mental evangelism is imperative in
the belief of the church. There is
teaching from the pulpit. Every.
body everywhere needs the gospel
in the slums as we'll as the residential
parts Of a city. Bankers, lawyers
and professional men need Christ
and so do workmen. college men and
illiterates. The peril of today is that
churches and others are trying TO
get fruit without the root, which is
Jesus Christ.
The Saviour received the woman
who was a sinner, while many
churches Of today would not welcome
such a woman.
/ Social and fraternal societies are
all in need of Jesus Christ. Without
our Lord the world is hopelessly
! lost. In mankind there is a heredi
tary evil and nobody can cure it but
Jesus"
