What Is It to Be a Christian j
The matter of having ones name on
the rolls of a church is not the true
test of discipleship, but the real living
of the life as the Eavior taught.
To be a follower of the Master;
means more than to - go to church I
on the Lord's Day or on other occa
sions, it means more than to give sup-
to teach, for at the time of the Master
! people were indeed very religious but
far from being truly Christian.
Christians were not called Christians
until many years after the Master
had been crucified and then first at
Antioch, in Asia. When Christ called
the disciples. He instructed them in
the verv art of right living, and In

The writer has always stood for
progress, in its every form, believing
: each generation must express itself
' independently cf those gone before.
If it were not so, we would have no

Juct stop every investigation of sci

we are where we started from little
less than animals.
Let's go back to the good old days
when they threw a man in jail for
debt; when we believed the earth

hung in the firmament; when we were
taught by Southern churches that
slavery was a divine institution;
