Even at the risk of appearing pres-1
. n tie:.- I wohld suggest that Mji.e
_..id;ng ministers of- the Federal*!
Council read the Bible. In the Great 1
Book we read that the cardinal vir-
to.es should be emphasized and prac-
tt.ed: that men should be honest in
tneir dealings; should not oppress)
the .paar_ in‘ business relations. aAl-
tr.ough the .people of Israel groaned
under the galling yoke b_f the Rom- ’
..n Empire, the Ring of Kings, the!
Lord of Lords, said "Render under:
Caesar the tilings that are Caesar’s i
-ir-id unto God the things that are'
God’s.’’ He was not defending Caes-
. but He Was dealing with the con-
ctrns of life far weightier than the,
sway of Rome and her legions. So
t ie Federal Council might address
itself to the cardinal principles of
!■ e and not descend to the arena
( politics. 1
A: no time did Jesu.^ preach equal-!
tv of men in this world. He brought,
u> the plan of salvation by which we
may become sons of the Most High,
thereby establishing *the basis for
the idea of the brotherhood of man; ;
but even here we may find light:
Jesus asljed "Who is my mother? and 1
wlio arc my brethern?” “Fqi whom-
m ever -hall do the will of my Fath
er which is in heaven, the -same is
my brother, and sister, and mother”.!
A- happen so often, we ^ancy. our-,
selves more progressive than the Re- /
deemer. The clear implication is!
that t.a.e. Council and_the individual <
churches should be concerned with]
t a fundamental things, not the tri-i
liti_< 9 : the moment. Where are
' ■ great empires that so oppressed
