HELD CHRISTIAN DUTY
DR.. Hugh T. Stevenson Conducts
Lenten Services at First Con-

every Christian is to promote the con-
version work commenced by Jesus
Christ" DR.. Hugh T. Stevenson de-

Scoring the spiritual apathy of
merely passive Christians. who believe
conformity to church formality i'm
plies complete discharge of religious
obligation, DR.. Stevenson said. Our
individual mission is to tell others of
our personal experiences with Jesus
Christ and his law. Mere Christian
orthodoxy is not enough"
when Jesus declared that we must
be witnesses unto him." DR.. Stevenson
concluded. in pointing out that con-
version workers are under an implied
apostolic duty to Jesus Christ, he meant
that we are directly responsible to him
in perpetuating his work as a saviour
Of souls. By our efforts to reveal
Christ to other we truly bear him
witness"

carries out the divine scheme of things
and hastens the restoration of society
to that scheme.
Here the question recurs why Jesus
possessed such unique and singular sig
nif1cance. The answer is that God was
present and active in Jesus as He has
not been present and active in any
other being. In Him God and man met
as they have never met elsewhere. Why,
then, should it be deemed incredible
that He is the Redeemer of the race?
Through Him myriads have found the
peace and salvation Of their pardoning
God. In Him they have lodged their
nobleSt ideals. BY His aid they have
realized those ideals in practice. These
are the foundations of Christian faith,
and they cannot be disturbed by argu-
ments pro and con about them. The
factual experience of men still testifies
that Jesus Is the Christ, the Son Of the
living God.

pondered the teaching that God made
man for His glory. If this is true, to

tention in creation one to which we
can rightfully adapt ourselves?
A. There has not been a better
answer to the question, What is mans
chief end?" than that one to which
you refer. But in what sense do we
glorify God If not in living so as to
help others to live better, and thus
elevating the general conception of
life's worthfulness? The fullest, rich
est, most beautiful and useful existence
Of which one is capable is therefore
the supreme end of ones being.
State the case negatively and 1t is
even more convincing. Let us suppose
that any person could glorify God
even though he chose the lowest levels
of moral action and sinned willfully
against light and knowledge. Would
there be any lasting satisfaction or
benefit in that choice? Things on
earth as well as in Heaven reply In
the negative.
Gods sole object in our creation is
our eternal good. Wherever He finds
it, whether in Protestant or Catholic
Jew or Gentle. there He is glorified

Of us shall share His life. His love-
His purity. You do everything for your

Him. Therefore the best motive you
can adopt is that which enables you
to do Gods will in the world. Any
lesser motive narrows the range of your
soul and disqualifies you for the self
development and Self-bestowal which
are the secrets of noble living.
