that the Church will outlast all tihe

allegorical and picturesque the
book is throughout in language and
thought and structure. But though
the writer uses such figurative, and,
to our seeming today, .rather fanci

of feeling and .purpose in his book
that is very striking and it is very
evident that it did bring a message
of courage and triumph and victory
to the harassed group of Christians
to whom it was addressed. A good
many times through its history the
Church has, had need of just that
kind of message that this book
brought to the first-century Chris
tians and the message, when it has
come, has been backed up with the
same kind of assurance that, with
the Christ in her midst, the Church
was destined to triumph no matter
how many her foes might be or how
strong their power or evil their pur
pose.
But John’s book reminded these
early Christians, as it reminds us,
that tihe victory and restoration and
triumph of the Church in her day
■of trial depends upon her faithful
ness. Over and over again the ap
peal is for steadfastness, fidelity to
principle, a faith that
