Mr. Henderson warned- of the
danger of trying to live on the
spiritual capital of others, and
reminded his ' listenersthat we
could not coast along on the • spirt-
ual capital of our forefathers. The
shortage of Sunday School teach-
ers and ' ministers points. 'to this.
Our spiritual resources are like
a bank account. If we keep, taking
out and putting nothing in, We
face spiritual bankruptcy,
AVe need fear not for the future,

derson concluded r if we build Up,
