M'MHKIl :io. ii ri-inm ii ii u m "The Light of the World" He is the Eternal Contemporary of mankind, the noblest incentive to pure thinking, right living, and heroic service that we know. Not one of us but is ill at ease if he knows that Jesus is on the other side of any issue. He was, he is, the light of the world, and the only hope that the earth will be drawn back from the red horror of war into the orbit of peace. Wherefore stand we gazing into heaven! Of a truth he has ascended far above all skies, but only that he might fill all things with his light and power and beauty. Our task is here, and the hour has struck when we must stranslate our vision into heroic char acter, but also into social justice, national righteous ness, and world-comity, setting our faces steadfast ly toward the day when every man shall hear the Gospel in the tongue in which he was born. Like the men which were of old, we need to betake our selves to the Upper Room, that so we may be en dued with power to show forth, in this srange and terrible time, the power of the Spirit of Jesus in history.
