"Beneath the cross of Jesus we see how feeble and how poor our Christianity is,,”~ he said. "Whatever the cross ef Christ may do for us, if we• are to call ourselves -Christian, we must take up the crosi ourselves." Mr. Birtch said that there was a spiritual revival in progress, with more and more people attending church "The churches may be filled and yet we' may be massing. the paint," he :warned. "We must pour ourselves out for those for ,whom He died. We must have that self -giving quality that sent Jesus Christ to the cross, Only the cross is able to give us a power that will enable us to •re•produce in ourselves same of that qualitY that was in Christ." . Temptations and habits lase their power only when we are caught up by a new affection that makes these things seem trivial, 'he said.

The ,Bible says that Isaac built an altar, Mr. Bicteh said. "The way af God is built into the life of men whO put an altar in the centre af their lives and faith- fully tend it." People today are suffering from compartmentalization, he warned. "We divide our lives into three sections—home life, work life and the kind af people we are in church. Isaac's life was all one piece. The altar has to be in the centre of life."
