There are a' number of new

in .the ' Cljristian ' •church, . - the
.—speaker said, :but. concentrated' 'on
three •particular .phases:'
• First we must, adopt the relev-
ants • of Christianity in" the: busi=.
Hess of•,everyday living :and'` sec-
• • orally must recognize' the absol-
t'ute necessity'•.of' the-
church' to
•nourish and propagate these :rel.
,•evants.`Thirdl'y we'must reco nine.
Christianity., as a g
