Every Christian can determine the reality of his faith by asking three fundamental questions. The first is, “Am I a loyal follower of the Christian ideal?” Now it is not easy to precisely define this ideal. There are many churches, many points of view. Christianity has meant one type of doctrine at one time in history, and something quite different at another time. But all Christians can agree that we come closest to the heart of our religion in the New Testament. And one of the most precious parts of this indispensable source book is the first letter of St. John from which our lesson text is taken. Here we see, in clear relief, Ihe abiding elements of the Christian message. Take the, Golden Text, “Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God.” ^ Harnack, the great modem schol- L “ « i - v ' ar, has stated this ideal differently, but With equal impressiveness; Tb» Christian* religion, he “means 01$ tiring and one tiring only: Eternal life in the rrMmt of time, by the strbqgtK and under th* eyes of God/’ f - v- 4- The second question is, “Do I understand the world in which I live?” What, are the underlying* forces moulding And remoulding pur confuse^, battered civilizatton? It is quite as difficult to know these as it is to appreciate the root meaning of Christianity, No Ctete- tian can express the Christian par- pose not knowing the temper of his era. We come nowf to the third final query. “Do 1 know hair t<> put the Christian faith to work ki my. world?” This is not easy either. It is hard to . make Christianity practical in such a stormy day as burs.' St. Augustine,' at the tin* when the mighty empire of was crurhbUng, 'wrote his “The City of God.” We can look beyond the burning' tow ers of our contemporary scene to the everlasting splendor of Kingdom!
