the Kaaba in Mecca and on the
other, as the friend who sent me one
pointed out. significantly, a picture
entitled THE Church of the Resur-
rection," which we commonly call
the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
Somebody on the committee in
charge of convention arrangements
had sensed the profound truth that
the real symbol of the Christian was
a token of the Resurrection.
1t was tthe Resurrection that vi
talized the little company of Chris
tian disciples after the Crucifixion.
They were slow to believe it. Many
of them were of doubling Thomas
mood. 1t is important evidence in
the case that Jesus Christ's dozen
appearances. after His death, were
all to persons who were not expect
ing him and who were SURPRISED
to see him. The very skepticism of
these disciples stresses the validity
OF the many infallible proofs" that
Jesus lived after He had died.
Here we confront the deepest
mystery of Christianity. While the
words and works of Jesus are match
less they would merely have entitled
Him to rank with the worlds great
teachers and examples. But His
death on the cross and His rising
again from the tomb establish Him
as mankind's unique and only Re-
deemer.
Oh, Life for Which We Pant"
Pendant from the truth of the res
direction is satisfaction for man
kinds oldest and deepest desire, the
yearning for fuller, freer, serener
life.
"Oh, life, not death, for which we
pant,
More life, and fuller than I want"
Most people are not happy. This
world has got us down We are hun
CRY for food better than the husks
upon which We feed. That is why
Christ promises life more abun-
dainty"
For-mySte7y OF mysteries-the
risen life of Jesus is shared by His
friends. An indescribab BILE peace and
power are impaired to those who
would live in His present Resurrec-
ton life, by His impaired power. He
promised His presence and His en-
abling to all who would accept Him
We cannot understand or explain
this high truth, but we may expert
ence it.
From many battle fronts come in
creaslngly stories of fighting men
who have experienced this power OF
God. In the midst of wars dangers
they have found a new meaning tt
life. God has become a reality tc
them. A whole array of fighters like
Rlckenbacker have risen up as wit
nesses, and even evangelists, of thi,
experience which reneWs a mans
whole being.
We listen eagerly in the hope Of
hearing old and new voices in the
pulpit proclaiming this central truth
Of the Gospel. What we. too. otter
hear is only ethical, social and polit.
lcal discussions. When, oh when. will
the pulpit catch fire with the burn
ing message that only in the cruel
fed and risen Christ may the crea-
tion of a new world order like unto
the Kingdom of Heaven, be possible ?

His friends, the proud Roman be-
comes a Christian, and the story
ends on high drama.
With all Of skilled novelist's
art, the author builds up the mys-
terry and supreme significance of
the Resurrection, without which
Christianity would have died
aborning. 1t is this new life in the
Christians which enables them to
Withstand the power of Rome, and
finally to conquer it. The novel
brings the absorbed reader face to
face with the victorious life that
is impaired by the risen Lord to
His followers.
A Truth for the Times.
This Is a truth for these times,
as all mankind confronts postwar
world. AS schemes for new order
evolve-I heard one expert say that
he had seen a collection of 300
new books and pamphlets upon
the theme-and as proponents of
the maintenance of the old order
grid themselves for the struggle
around the peace table, there is deep
need that sober-minded persons get
a firm grip upon the truth that a
new life for the world depends upon
new life in the individual.
No scheme that can be devised
for just and durable peace is worth
the paper it is written upon unless
there are new purposes and stand
ards in the hearts of the people.
The old axiom of geometry still ap-
plies, The whole is but equal to the
sum of its parts" No cook can make
good jelly out of bad apples. All the
worlds concentrated wisdom of
statecraft cannot create a global
life of the four freedoms except a
better mood and measure of life is
created in mankind. So profound
is this need that nothing short of
the Resurrection truth can establish
it. Christ's life, shared by men and
women who live in Him, is the only
adequate power that can set up the
great change. A glimpse of this has
set the public meetings all over
Great Britain to singing William
Blake's old lines:
Il will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,
Till We have built Jerusa lem,
In England's green and pleasant
land"
Religions Deepest Mystery.
