Is confluence OF diverse testimony,
by more than five hundred contem-
porary persons. most of whom knew
Him intimately in the days Of His
flesh.
Before ever there was page OF
the New Testament written there
had grown up great fellowship Of
believers. whose faith was pinned
primarily upon the resurrection. 1t
was not a dead Christ, but a living
Christ, a personally experienced
Christ, who sent the early church
singing and testifying, over all the
worlds ancient highways. and into
the catacombs and into the COLI
scum, glad to die for the Name.
A Moslem Tribute.
When the Arabic-speaking ma
tions held a congress in Cairo, to
discuss the issues of Zionism. shortly
before the outbreak of the war, they
gave each delegate a medal. One
of these was sent to me by mis-
sionary friend. On one side it bore
a picture of the Kaaba, in Mecca,
central shrine of Islam. On the
other side was portrayal Of the
Church of the Holy Sepulchre in
Jerusalem. The purpose was to
show the solidarity of both Moslems
and Christians of the Near East in
opposition to Zionism.
The significant fact, my missionary
friend pointed out. was that the
Moslem leaders of the Congress had
designated the Christian shrine as
The Church of the Resurrection. "
They had penetrated to the deepest
meaning of the old church which
reputedly holds the tomb of Christ.
It's real sanctity is less that He was
buried there than that He there
arose from the dead.
Any reverent reading of the New
Testament finds the teaching Of
the fact and power of the resur-
rection running through it like a
thread of gold Upon this central
truth depends the Christian life.
If Christ be not risen from the
dead, then is your faith vain"

Christian, too, Mr.. Sayre has out
lined tine new order" that must
follow victory, and Christ's rela-
tion thereto This passage merits
quotation in every Sunday school
class and in every pulpit:
I'VE must set out actually to
build society based upon the liv-
ing principles of Christ. If our
civilization cannot be brought to
understand more clearly and to be-
lieve more strongly in the funda-
mental teachings of Jesus Christ,
it cannot survive. In other words,
men must of their own conscious
ness come to perceive the utter
folly Of trying to build a civiliZa-
ton on materialism and brute
force, and come to realize, perhaps
through suffering. that the endur-
ing values that humanity will al
ways crave grow out of understand
ing and love and seIf-sacriflce
There is only one way to make
people realize that. We must go
back to the living Christ, to the
audacious, thrilling, winsome Figure
that actually lived-and lives"
The Company Who Love Him.
In a iust-completed tour of the

looking into the way in which the

outside of the established denomi-
national lines, but I have hac
