To the Editor of the "Nontu-Cuina Day News."
Sm,—I was much impressed with your comments in your Editorial of the 25th on the work of the National Christian Council, In your comments you state that "To outsiders it may seem that the Conference. has little "ground for Chritianity ip nothing more hat the hope "of. winning et the promised reign of peace and its failure, aa. yet, to. rin foodwitl"nmong_ men: And' when "we Chinwand see the condition religiously, Cheistianity' doing for China™ in This closing thought is a real live iti gestion, but why conte you jon to China?" What Christianity done for Europe in her misery? What has it done for 'America with her 10,000 homicides and 65,000 missing young girls last Year? "Think of the world's great war that was brought about by so-called 'Christian nations. In' that war 11,000,000 of our best men lost their lives. These so-called. Christ-jan nations have been bean Gospel do. they stand in God's sight. to-aay?
What does God say about, it? What do we read in the Word? The trouble "has been and is that the majority of the preachers of to-day have the idea that this world wil be converted in this age and we will have universal peace." They cannot find anything like that in the Bible to bear them outs but on the eons inning to tune Word that God. taking out a people for His nam The Hebrew motion was the Grsi selected and when" it rejected its Messiah "it was' cut off and the Gentiles grafted ina Oh, if those who profess to be pastors and teachers of His Word would only get their spiritual eyes eyes open t0 see about this truth they would not cloud the vision of Church members or the world. The devil came in at the beginning. to mar the works of God and he has been doing ever since and he will continue to carry on till Jeans comes to rule and reign as King.
Christ said" in Matt, 24: 97-80 that, when He should come the times would be as the days of Noah, How was it then? Te was a wicked generation and God could not behold any longer. "They knew not until the flood came."
Tal T we read, "But the [Spirit saith expressly, that in the Totter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seduein spirits, and doctrines of devils. This is true to-day in the teaching lof Christian Science and the doctrine of Modernism, Then again in 2 Tim, 9: 1-7 we see a complete picture of what we feo and bony every day. Take your Bibles ud read it carefully and prayerfully, "Inverse 13. "of same" chapter we read that, men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiv ing and being deceived." Peter also ives his testimony regarding the Emes we are now in; 2 Peter 3: 3, "Knowing this first, that there all come in the last days, scofte walking after their own lusts, This is a true picture of the world to-day, and a good part of the s0- called Church members have gone pleasure mad, This is why we shall never seo China or any other nation a truly, Christian nation until Christ comes.
It is our duty, however, to preach Christ. who is the power of God unto, salvation. Large numbers in every, nation will be saved, and we who sre faithful—in the pulpit and in the: pew—will have a part in His King dom.

Tt behoves watch, work and pray unt the Day Star appears.
