is not going to solve the moral problems of our day as we have seen in this les son the preaching of the law against sin was not pauls method rather did he preach deliverance from sin and the responsibility of the modern ohuroh is not to lift up its bands in holy horror at the sins of the world or the fr of some of its own mem bers its responsibility is to ifaold up to view the cructried lamb of god who opened up a living way into the holiest of all a way into life where in mn may walk in the light and not stumble the constructive work of the church is to speak of what is in christ so long as she is only half- serious about her faith and her teach ing her spiritual life will not be suf ficiently fraihwg as to be an adequate substitute for the intoxication of the flesh let individual christians beware of which comes i from merely taking a stand on this 1 or that moral question and i do not mean they should not take a standi and realise that the only effective rnwina of combatting immorality is by the fidelity of then- witness to thetr f alth as a whole on the other hand the church and her members not sidestep their responsibility as spiritual agents on these gx sticking to the gospel and keeping out of politics by not demanding govkwnments aoospt their responsi bility of preserving public order and of having respect for the righteousness of god it la always the duty of the church to require of governments that they carry out their appointed task of wielding the sword of authority for the public welfare what we are say ing however b that the church does not effectively combat vice by de manding parliamentary leglsl action the only effectual means of combatting vice and promoting virtue is the preaching and the bearing of the gospel tow mf wm lit here
