This is the raw material of religion.
If the church would seek holy

Shall the church, therefore. go into

The church is concerned with po-
litical issues, but she can best show
her concern by helping to furnish the
moral and spiritual background of
life.
The gospel of Jesus Christ has in it
the dynamic which can change the
world. Jesus proposed ideas which, If
they are ever tried, will revolution1Ze
the world.
Jesus taught the universal father

Jesus taught the supreme value of
human life. He was audacious in the
value which He set upon human life.
He picked out all sorts of derelicts to
illustrate His faith, harlots and
usurers and lepers and hated foreign
ers. He treated them all with respect
and courtesy. The best people of
Jerusalem hated Him for it. They
scourged Him because He had no
proper idea of human worth. They
spat upon Him because He destroyed
all of the traditional ideas of their
aristocracy. They crucified Him be-
cause He refused to bow to their ar
rogant pride.
There is room for but one God in
