THE KINGDOM AND THE

“To the general assembly and church

“The church must never make the
mistake of thinking that it is the king-

it; but the kingdom is greater than the

The Church has been and may be
wrong very definitely in some of its
attitudes. Infallibility is not ascribed to
the church or its ministry, Often the
church has to apologize for its error,
such as it had to do-at the close of the
last great war and has done often since
in its relation to economic and social

3.1 Ii then ye were raised together

right hand of God. 2 Set your mind or
the things that are above, not on th
things that are upon the earth. 3 Fo
ye died, and your life is hid with Chris
in God. 4 When Christ, who is our
life, shall be manifested, tlizr, shall y
also with him be manifested in glory

5 Put to death therefore your mem-
‘bers which are upon the earth fornica
tion, uncleanness, passion, evil desire
and coyetousness, which is idolatry; 6
for which things’ sake cometh the wrath
of Ged upon the sons of disobedience:
7 wherein ye also once walked when
ye lived in these things; & but now dc
ye also put them all away: anger,
wrath, malice, railing, shameful speak
ing out of your mouth: 9 lie not one to
another; seeing ‘that ye have put off
the old man with his doings, 10 and
have. put on the new man, that is being
renewed unto” knowledge aiter the
image of him that created him: 11
where there cannot be ‘Greek and
Jew, circumcision and uncircuincision
barbarian Scythian, bondman, free-
man; but Christ is all, and in all.

12 Put on therefore, as God’s elect,
holy and beloved, a heart of compassion,
kindness, lowliness, meekness, long-
suffering; 13 forbearing one another,
and forgiving each other, if any man
have a. complaint against any: even as
the Lord forgave you, so also do ye. 14
and above all these things put on love
which is the bond of perfectness. 15
And let the peace of Christ rule in your
hearts, to the which also ye were called
in one body; and be ye thankful. 16
Let the word of Christ dwell in you
richly; in all wisdom teaching and ad-
monishing one another with psalms
hymns and spiritual songs, singing with
gracein your hearts unto God. 17 And
whatsoever ye do, in werd or in deed,
do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,

giving thanks to God the Father
through him. _

the things that are above usually cost
much less than the things that are be-
low.

No individual is so inconspicuous
that he cannot help to create a de-
mand for the better things and thus to
build a better world.

War is no respecter of persons.

Every war roots down in unbrother-
liness, Before there can be world
peace there must be world brother-
hood.

The reason why the church has
neyer been able to take a united stand
against war is because too many
church people belong to a political
party first, and their church after-
wards.

PRAYER THOUGHT
By William Chalmers Covert

Help us, O God, to enter into the full
benefits of our religious life. May we
not be content witn any partial con-
quest of our souls by Thy grace. May we
who have had planted in us Christ who
is our life, be conscious daily of the
motive power out of which all virtues
and moral traits rise arid are sustained.
Forgive our meager and inadequate
personifying of Jesus Christ and the
puny fruitbearing of our Christian life.
May we show forth more consistently
by the things we do and say that the
word of Christ doth dwell in us. May
there be joy and spontaneous songs of
praise breaking forth from. our lives
May the changeless realities of God’s
truth take such hold of us that in us
may dwell that peace of God that pass-
es all understanding and that ever re-
sists the disturbing things of this life.
In all, things may we give thanks. In
Jesus’ name. Amen.

PEACE ON THE MARCH
, Psa, 34:14; Isa. 2:4,

A few years ago when war seemed —
so remote one could lightly talk of
peace. I remember when hundreds”
of young men in the leading colleges
of the land were signing pledges to
refuse to fight in any future wars re-
gardless of the consequences. A few
brave souls even dreamed of a “warless
world”. Today with darge sections of
the world at war; with hundreds being
murdered daily; it is mockery ‘to talk
of peace unless one is ready to suffer
to achieve it: +

Two major wars are now in progress
in the world. By studying their issaes
and leaders, we can obtain an objective
basis for evaluating thé purposes and:
motives of war. We can see that men
“make” wars. They manufacture them.
There is a psychological pattern which
war-makers ‘follow. They use and
develop ‘racial and national prejudices
and hatreds to achieve their end.

As Christians are we obligated to
work for world peace? “If so, what can:
we do? How can we help? Each
society ought seek awarness of those
concrete opportunities which face its

HISTORY OF KIRBY’S NATURAL IRON TONIC, M. M.

This remarkable ‘mineral deposit was discovered by a colored
man while digging a ditch. He noticed a peculiar grayish color of clay.
He discovered that by its coming in contact with air and water its
color became reddish. As this man worked several days his skin be-
came wet with reddish liquid in the ditch, minor sk’n irritations from
which he had been bothered for some time was noticeably helped.

The news went out from this man about what had occurred to him.
Then people in the neighborhood began tp examine and experiment
mrt this grayish clay and soon found that 't contained medicinal quali

ies.

The boys from the C. C. C. ‘Camp

St. Andrew, altho out of debt, not
owing a penny on its great church
building, equipped with all modern
conveniences, neither. on either of it
to fine parsonages it owns, has been
jead by the pastor in three strenuous
successful financial efforts this con-
jerence year, he had not lead the
church to make any special effort for|
the salvation of souls, yet we were
within two and a half months of the
close of this conference year.

About 2 A. M., Aug. 15th; while
sleep, an impression was made on my
ind by the Holy Spirit that appeared
» me to be a voice saying: “You have
ead your people in three financial
ciforts, but you have not lead them
» even attempt to make an effort for
1¢ salvation of souls this conference
year.” The voice of the Spirit was so
real, distinet, and definite that I awoke
1 great fright. Recovering immedi-
viely from the fright, and recognizing
the fact that it was the Holy Spirit
speaking to my spirit, £ arose and
vowed upon my knees in earnest prayer
saying, “Yes, Lord, but if Thou wilt
ielp and guide me I will lead them in
vn effort for the salvation of the lost”.
in pursuance of this promise, without
consulting officers or any one, I an-
nounced that our revival would begin
on Aug. 22nd. and that I would do the
preaching by the help of the Lord.
This’ announcement ‘met the approyal|
of the large congregation that had as-
sembled for our morning service. In
the opening services, I announced that,
by God’s help, I would freach again all
forms of sin both in and out of the
church as I had notidone and, in two
weeks, our effort was blessed with
the conversion of twenty-five strong
men and women, boys and ‘girls, and |:
with twenty-seven accessions to the
church. In it all God be praised and
we humbled and made to see clearly:
that without Him we are nothing and
nothing can we do. PY

Another result of this revival was
that mafy of our members who were
backsliders in heart -and life who were
gloriously reclaimed and started the
christian life over again with the
avowéd purpose to go thru with Jesus,
at any cost, to their life’s end, Many.
who had settled down in a cold and
indifferent state of life were wonder-
fully revived, and reconsecrated their
lives to God and the church for real
christian service, St. Andrew is now
in a blaze of divine fire and; by God’s

BISHOPS UNANIMOUS IN DECISION
’ OVER SUNDAY SCHOOL
LITERATURE

At a meeting of the Bishops’ Council which met in Memphis,
Tennessee, during the week of June 22nd, the Bishops unanimously
ordered that every Sunday School of the Connection use the Sunday
School literature as published by Prof. E. A. Selby, Secretary-Treas-
urer of the Sunday School Union of the Afican Methodist Episcopal
Church. The department was also ordered to move in with the
Book Concern, in Philadelphia, Pa. This has been done.

All orders for Sunday School literature should be sent to E. A.
Selby, 716 South 19th Street, Philadelphia, Pa. The Sunday School
supplies are already printed and ready for shipment; we are, there-
fore, asking that you cooperate with us further by sending your orders
early. Three weeks before the opening of the quarter will give your
orders plenty of time to reach us and allow for a reasonable pessi-
bility of delay. Many of our schools are already following this
method,

_ We are following this procedure in calling the attention of the
Pastors to the orders of the Bishops. You are the chief Superinten-
dents of your Sunday Schools, and upon whose shoulders rest the
responsibilities of carrying out the orders of the Church, Let us
pull together brethen. in unity there is strength.

Yours for greater and better Sunday Schools,

E. A. SELBY, Secretary.
