Religious Questions
DISCUSSED BY
DR.. S. Parkes Cadndn.

in answer to a question, that limited
God would not be God at all. take
it that in this use of the word limited"
is synonymous with the word i'm
perfect"
II that is so, how do your reconcile
this idea of a God who has no more
power or wisdom to develop, with the
teaching of Christ concerning the
Father who works until now and in
the future for the perfecting Of man
kind?
A. I see no need for reconciliation
here.
The perfecting of mankind does not
involve the perfecting Of God. Indeed,
the idea of human progress toward such
an end implies an already perfect God
who conducts the process leading to its
realization.
But if God is Limited" in any other
sense then this-that all He does is
determined by His total nature as a
,oIy and loving being-then there is
no assurance of mans glorious future.
The perfection of God Is the guaranty
that He will complete what He has
begun in His offspring. For that VIC
tory God works and with it comes the
triumph Of the whole cosmic scheme.
