WASHI C NE of the most extraordinary of exceptional ground plans is pre- sented by this twelfth century ./ Danish church at Kallundburg, a pleasant seaside town of Northwest Zealand about 50 miles northwest of old Roeskilde. Its plan is that of a Greek cross and over each arm rises an octagonal tower of red brick gabled on each side and surmounted by a short metal spire. A larger tower, but square, with each side gabled, and an octagonal spire, rises at the intersec- tion of the cross; and with the four standing over the west end, the transcepts and the chancel, respectively, not only assist in composing one of the most architectural of groups, but gives a wonderful air of size to the building. One can hardly refer to this ancient edifice as an ornate structure. Quite . i the contrary. It is one of extreme sim- plicity, minus the elaborations in stone and marble and metal one finds in the gorgeous cathedrals of France, Italy, Spain, Germany and England. Its beauty, such as it is, is based on its extreme simplicity, characteristic of | many of the rude northern churches of the time. Unlike many of the old churches of Eurcpe, Kallundburg's venerable church has suffered but little from the wars, the devastations of time and the ele- ments that have visited them, and it stands today in appearance much as it was when its bullders finished their work 800 years ago, and its simple but solid walls gave assurance that it will ;u;vlve another dozen centuries of the uture.

Is it your idea that God created the anthropoid | ape with metabasic powers, enabling the ape to develop into a rational being? A. Man was never an anthropoid ape, !and an anthropold ape never became a | man. 1If you let A, B, C, D, E, etc, | represent ‘the evolutionary series, sci- | ence does not teach that A “became” B, or that B was once wholly present in A. All that can be held is that A was a necessary precedent factor in | the process by which B appeared later. A is not B, and B is not A. Neverthe- less, but for A there would be no B. |as we assume a third fact, which by | producing A makes possible in due time the production of B. God, the power underlying A and B, | operal vealing Himself more. fully in later than {in Olrfier forms of life. The theory that | “everything was potentially present in the original germ” is metaphysically unintelligible. Creallngn is the process of the self- | activity and XlEll-1]'!\l"enl'l‘lt,l‘f;n lorslp?;dm::: he theory of evolut &l | attempt };n state the method of the | process. i ! Q. I do not understand your ttitude toward the Bible. | " You speak of some of its parts as not being of divine authority, and sug- gest that we consider these particular parts just as we would any great litera ture and as the writings of wise mel of olden days, who were human beings and not actually inspired. Are any parts of the Book divinely inspired, and how can we determine just which parts are God's words and which are the words of men? | A. T have answered similar questions | before, but the frequency with which | they occur shows that many people are | deeply perplexed on the matter you {raise. T am quite sure that in the prac- tical use of the Bible you discriminate between its various parts. Some pas: sages you rarely, if ever, read; others 1y read continuall Why is this? It is because you believe that you get more kelp from your favorite portions. Which would you choose among those favorite portions Probably Psalm xxiii, Isalah, lili; Micah, vi6-8; the Beatitudes, the Parables of the Good Samaritan and of the Prodigal Son; | Romans, xii, and I Corinthians, xili, mean far more for you than the gen- ealogical tables in Chronicles, or the rules for ceremonial cleansing in Leviti- | cus, or the crude stories in Judges. Wh 2" “Because in them you hear God's v‘mr as you do not in the other selec- tion Obviously then not all parts of the Bible are of equal value. By what ( principle must we judge them? Is it | not by that truth about God which | we believe has come to us in Jesus Christ? ‘We have to distinguish between the historical and moral values of the Bible. The scholar needs all its parts 1o get the complete story of God's self- revelation., But his children have re peatedly failed to understand that re elation. Only very slowly did they come to a right knowledge of Him. The Bible records everything — mel fallures as well as their gsuccesses. ‘Why should we insist that failures are not faflures just becausé they are recorded the Bible? The Old Test. ) Religious Questions DISCUSSED BY Dr.S. | teenth chapter of his first letter to the We can understand the relation only | This third fact is | ting in them and with them, re-| Parkes Cadman. said, “Forgive your enemies, love them, pray for them.” Which of these ut- terances most truly represents God? Q. How do you explain the saying that at the resurrection “the dead in Christ shall rise first?” Do you be- lieve we shall recognize our loved ones in heaven? A. 8t. Paul's statement, to which you refer, is found in the well known fif- Corinthians, which deals with the resurrection. He uses the irumpet as a symbol of the immediate summons to the dead. The rest of his language is also figurative and is chosen to ex press the solemn finality of the impen ing transformation. Compare St. M thew, xxiv.31, and the first epistle to the Thessalonians, iv.16. Naturally, those who have accepted Christ have priority in the result of His victory over death. But He has many sheep of other folds. These He will also bring to their desired place, “that there may be one fold and one shepherd.” |,. Our recognition of loved ones in the | life beyond is always taken for granted in Holy Scripture. "Did not the Master say “If I go and prepare a place for | you, T will come again and receive you | unto Myself, that where I am there | y¢ may be also”? The fellowship of | souls is life’s chief good. Enriched and purified by heaven's intimacies, it con- stitutes the essential glory of humanity both here and hereafter. | Q. (1) Please tell me why you keep | the first day instead of the seventh as the Lord's day? (2) What is the meaning of the signs stamped on the foreheads of be- | lievers In' the Book of Revelation? (3) What is the exact duration of the Jewish Sabbath? A. (1) The resurrection of Jesus was an event of the first magnitude to the early Christians. It created the| ehurch, inspired her manifold activi- | tles and furnished the spiritual power which evangelized the Roman Empire. | St. Paul declared that he and his fel- | low believers were crucified to sin with | Christ and raised with Him to new- ness of life. This astounding change, historically warranted, induced His fol- |lowers to set apart the first day of the 'wtrk as the day on which their Lord |arose from the dead, leading captivity captive. Thus originated God’s new of Dr. Wilfley's sermon for tomorrow morning and at the evening service he will speak on “The Escape.” “Le Rendezvous,” an expressicnal group of college-age young people, will discuss the subject “Organizations Which Tend to Promote Peace.” Rich- ard C. Marks will lead the discussion tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock. ‘The Myrtle rger Mission Circle will meet Tuesday evening at the home of the president, Miss Mildred Wick, 3820 Eighth street. Miss Roberta Belle Galloway, president of the Christian Circles of the District, will speak on “Missions in the Islands of the Sea.” ‘The Business Women’s Circle will meet for supper at 6 o'clock Wednesday at the church, Miss Charlotte Darrow, leader. Newly-appointed division lead- ers in the circle are Miss Elsie Damer- on, Miss Nellis Emerson, Miss Ida Puqua and Mrs. Aaron Stone. At the midweek meeting Thursday at 7:30 pm., Urban C. Stover will le: & discussion of “Missions in Europe, as & part of the general discussion of “Missions in the Continents of the World.” “LOYALTY” SERMON TOPIC Dr. Norcross Will Preach at C Vary M. E.

Norcross, the vacation preacher during August, at_Calvary Methodist Episcopal Church, Columbia road near Fifteenth street, will have for his topic at the 11 o'clock service tomorrow morning “Loyalt; Man Who Deserted His Friend will be no evening service.
