gates, from 81 nations and repre-
senting more than 5000 900 Con-

to discussing THE Universal
Church in Gods Design" This
discussion will seek to clarity the
paradox Of the church as both
% divine and human institution.
Other issues to be studied are
'"The Church's Witness to Gods
Design" or how the church can
bring It's message TO the un-
churched. tomorrow; The Church
and the Disorder Of Society,"" Of
the relationship Of Christian
ity, communism and capitalism,

The findings of these discus
sions will be embodied In q ines

Speakers at the sixth Interna-

meeting he.e today called for
greater efforts by Professionals to-
wards church union but urged
that "the congregational prin-
ciple" be generally accepted 50 the
separate existence Of congrega-

first serious" acceptance OF the
congregational principle, DR..
Charles 8. Duthie. principal OF
the Scottish Congregational Col

clared today.
Amsterdam was possible be-
cause the Christian loyalty to
Christ was seen to transcend all
lesser Royalties that might have
kept the churches apart" DR..
Duthie told the delegates at the
fourth-day session Of the eight
day meeting.
"And now the ecumencial move
ment is challenging US to take
this great principle with new Sc
riousness," he continued. It Is
asking us whether we believe that
the only embodiments Of which 1t
IS capable are the congregational
systems of the past and present
or whether new and better en-
bodiments may not be possible

Of God"
