a spirit. with spiritual body. Con-
sequently He is q real person, for the
Creator could not be less than the
creature.
We are broken lights Of Thee
And Thou o God. are more than We.
Every material form has behind it
a spiritual fact. The things that are
seen are temporal. but the things
which are not seen are eternal" Be
cause of the limitation of our senses
we can really apprehend but little Of
this vast universe while we are in the
flesh. The human ear is attuned only
to those sound waves that Vibrate be-
tween certain fixed limits. The ear
has no response to waves above or be-
low those limits. Thus 1t is true that
there are harmonieS and sounds that
we never hear. 1t may be literally
true that the very spheres in their
vast revolutions In space do make mu-
sic, even as the ancientS said, but we
cannot hear that sound, because we
have not organs delicate enough to
take 1t in. So also the human eye
cannot receive those light waves
which vibrate outside the upper and
lower standards which mark the limits
of the eye. Above and below this
standard there is no response IN the
human eye, though there are light
waves all around us which we cannot
apprehend. Consequently there are
visions Of loveliness on every side
which we never see. There are depths
of tender beauty in the heart Of a rose
that evade our apprehension, but
which would delight our eyes II only
we could look upon their lOveliness.
Yes, man in the flesh Is limited be-
ing, q truth that should humble us
and cause us truly to walk by faith
and not by sight.
But the Bible has revealed to us
that there is another unseen spiritual
work in which there are angels and
other created intelligences, and that
the world is indestructible and eternal
God is the Supreme Ruler of the
whole universe, and He Is a spirit.
Because of this. no man can see God
at any time. Therefore, the need of
the incarnation. Jesus Christ is the
manifestation OF God, and the express
image Of His glory. In the love and
wisdom of Christ we see that God is
a spirit, and therefore that those who
worship Him must worship Him In
spirit and in truth.

Jesus conception of God who is the
all-pervading spirit of the universe
overtaxes the mind. It has been found
easier to set Him upon throne of
mortal conceit. to give Him arbitrary
and omnipotent power, and to abandon
the strenuous effort to understand the
God whom Jesus served.
The church has sought to make God
over into O set Of laws. 1t IS easier
to serve an inflexible code than liv-
ing spirit.
The church has presumed to decide
what God Wills for men. 1t has regis
tered this presumption in hard-and-
fast theory Of human life. 1t has said,
God wills thus and so, about personal
conduct, about religious exercises,
about personal belief.
The man on the street is inclined to
argue, Does the church know the will
of God with such completeness? Must
l accept her judgment.
The church has split in her judg-
ment. There have been host of
points of view as to the demands
which God makes Of men. In all
branches OF the church there is evil
dence Of a desire to escape the dead
lethargy Of institutionalized dogma.
tism and to understand the God who
is spirit.
II God Is spirit, God grows
Everywhere we see the evidence of
movement in creation, the growth Of
new life In every day. If God is the
all-pervading spirit of this creation He
cannot stand still.
Jesus tells us that this God Of all
the earth is loving God. That means
He shares life with us, that He Is
working with us through blindness
and defeat, through failure and disap.
pointment to victory and vision.
A spiritual religion does not demand
conformity; it demands loyalty to
what the Quakers call 1.-The inner
light" A spiritual religion Is never
so easy as all institutional loyalty.
1t demands imagination, aliveness,
awareness. vigor of soul and mind. It
is not easy, but the Gospel Of Jesus
was never easy. That Is the reason
so many substitutes are offered.
